I'm serious... I don't even know what it is but I'm loving this far more than the other games, and I'm a huge fan of those. Once I beat the game maybe I'll be able to hone down exactly what makes this one so much better in my eyes. As for now, I just know it kicks ass.
Miami, I'll add you later when I'm done torturing my brain with German homework. my PSN ID is zombiepulse for anyone else I don't have added yet. The more the merrier.

To be honest my anticipation went down a bit when the word came in on how Dante was playable for only a few missions and that all he did was repeat the same locations and bosses as Nero.
But now that the game is in most peoples hands and everyone seems to agree its awesome, I am hyped again. One more day till action gaming bliss.

i don't think he is family at all ( it doesn't make any sense what so ever to the story of Sparda and will make a huge plot hole to DMC3's sons of sparda blood to open the door story ) , from what i understand so far , i guess nero is just a copy that the order made from Nelo Angelo's remains (yeah just like Big boss and the three Snakes ) , so Nero got some of Vergil 's DNA ( white hair , Sparda's blood , emoness ..ect) , all the ""angelos"" thingy in the DMC4 is just like the genome soldier and big boss of metal gear series .

I had it reserved in another town (about 20 minutes from here) and I got there at 3:30pm to pick it up, and the employee told me they couldn't sell it until 5:00pm. So I went and had some Gold Star Chili across the street with some friends, we stayed in there as long as possible and damn it was good.
I just wanted to share this story with everyone just in case someone needs an idea for a best-seller.
edit: by the way this game has some incredibly titty animations. Kyrie sorta pushes her arms together at the beginning and her breasts smushed together... it was great

But that doesn't explain a FREAKING THING, it's completely random!!!

See this is sadly more what I was thinking, but more RE... i.e. Nelo Angelo's soul re-encoded his DNA or something, but that's still ridiculous and should be at least slightly hinted at if you're going to do something like that.

good point, i hope DMC5 will make everything clearer.
also Gamespot review is up, score: 8.0
The Good
Extraordinary action sequences highlighted by smooth controls and slick animations Nero is a great new character with some terrific new moves Beautiful visuals and incredible cutscenes will constantly amaze you Boss characters are designed well and fun to fight.
The Bad
Environments and boss fights are repeated far too often Puzzles and platforming aren't much fun and chop up the pace too much.

Picked it up today at VGP in Mississauga and sank about six - seven hours into the game. Got up to mission ten with Nero. Cutscenes aren't as awesome as DMC3's but the opening one with
is great. Especially loved the part where
Anyway, can't wait to get to the Dante part and judging by how many moves I still have to buy for Nero, he'll definately be a very replayable character.
Nero vs. Dante
Dante mocks Nero by mimicking the Red Queen's Rev function with Rebellion.

I thought the cutscenes in DMC3 were cool, but they also matched the spunky, less mature Dante. DMC4 is overall somewhat more "mature" and there is no smarmy Dante, and I think the cutscenes reflect that. I don't really need hip cutscenes this go-round.

WHAT Nero is awesome
revving the sword, taunting, dropkicking, Hulk-smashing, catapulting, and charging enemies with IR fiery death is the most fun I've had in an action game!
Some extremely brief impressions.
Wow. Mission 3 was the longest mission I've ever played in a DMC game.
Ugh. The camera angles in Fortuna Castle suck. I mean really, really suck. Like RE1 suckage.
I actually do like the Proud Soul system.
Knights > Ownage.
So far, I really like the game. But I guess we'll see what happens with the inevitable switch-over occurs.

Using your arm of death against the knights is amusing.

Even on SoS, Dante is way too overpowered. With Nero on SoS you have to LEARN the boss patterns 95% perfectly, but Dante can still power through them pretty well with just using the tricks you learned in Nero's fight against them.
But man, starting Dante's levels with his full arsenal fully upgraded = ridiculous fun.

why are there so many restrictions for the review? Anybody who has been checking the official site knows whats going to be in the game. Does capcom really have somthing so special to unlock or do they not want to discourage fans of vergil who isnt in the game.
