Devil May Cry 2

Commentary

One of my biggest sticking points was the lack of apparent plot in this game. Certainly, much was cleared up once I played through Lucia's scenario, but still, I don't like wondering why I am going through this game. It's not fun to ponder such things during repeated battles with things that are trying to kill you. It's just not kosher.

Gameplay, however, is fantastic. Dante moves wonderfully with no sticking in the controls, and the ability to run along a wall greatly improves your style ratings for your combos. You can also switch out your abilities for more effective use during the game.

Devil May Cry 2 has its high points and its lows, but all in all, it's a good gaming experience.
