GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

Before I start talking about this game, first I'd like to thank the people who wished me luck on college and sorry to have not updated the blog since then. It has been a busy time and it still is, but I can always try and update the blog from time to time.

So this time it's about Devil May Cry 1. A game that I am currently playing on my own and am enjoying it a lot. Don't get me wrong, I have played it when it was released as well but only for a small about of time and it was mostly me watching my brother how he plays the game. When it got released, I really liked the game and itfelt like a classic to me instantly.

Devil May Cry 2 was released, and I watched my brother playing it. It seemed kinda boring and different compared to the orginal back then. It could be that we didn't give it enough of a chance and Devil May Cry 1 was simply too amazing.

Devil May Cry 3 got released too and I bought that one and played the start of it, this one is pretty good actually and captures the orginal the most. It felt more like a hack and slasher and felt more complicating but I think if I'd play it now I'd have a blast and think it's just amazing

Devil May Cry 4 I received on my birthday and played the first few stages again, still early. And I think with this one it was apparent that it was very hack and slash like and just wasn't as interested. I like the new character Nero though and the story looked interesting, Maybe if I'd play it again and give it a fair chance I might think differently.

So I kept thinking, could Devil May Cry 1 not be that amazing as in my memories and was it just an illusion that I thought it was a classic? You know when you play a game at a young age, you think it's amazing and when you go back to it after a couple of years it disappoints. Maybe Devil May Cry 1 was just like the rest, a hack and slasher and wasn't that special.

Well, I can say that my fond memories didn't deceive me, the game plays nice, the environments are great and the pacing is just perfect. You don't feel that it's too repetitive compared to the other 3 games in the franchise and the atmosphere is very important. With little details and descriptions on everything that you investigate. I guess Devil May Cry 1 is this detailed because it used to be a Resident Evil project. Regardless, the game is pretty much perfect and better than the other 3 so far. I might change my mind after playing with Devil May Cry 3 and 4 while also finishing them, but I'm glad that my memories didn't deceive me. Devil May Cry 1 is a classic.

Is it me or does it feel like time is slowing down? At least, that's how it looks like. Time has been moving so fast the last couple of years, except for this year. This might be happening because I'm in a crucial moment with college. I haven't been doing too well lately, mostly focused on other activities. In other words, slacking off But I have three months left to earn the credits that I need. It's going to be hard, especially French, economic aspects and market research. Well, there's no choice but to work hard now. I have to, I don't know what I'll do if I fail. Only the thought of it is scaring me to death. Wish me luck, whoever is reading this

Yep, the wii. I finally have one after such a long time. It was supposed to be my first purchased next gen console but things turned out differently and I got a ps3 instead. The reason was mainly because I was disappointed with the way nintendo is heading. Well, I got a nice deal and managed to get the smallest console anyway.

Let me tell you how much I missed nintendo. Games like Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Paper Mario 64, Legend of Zelda a link to the Past put a smile in my face. It's magic I tell ya!

I can go hunt Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda TP and No more Heroes now The virtual console is like a walhala, haha.

Ahem, enough of talking and back to playing games.

Bye bye (Xiaoyu style)!

Some people just don't have opinions. Like ShivaRpg.
ShivaRpg must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could ShivaRpg possibly have for not rating a single film?
