I still remember when the first Devil May Cry came out and blew everyone away with its impressive graphics, cool characters, terrific bosses, and the exciting and action-packed gun+sword gameplay.  In its fourth incarnation, Devil May Cry 4 has moved to the PS3, and visually it’s more impressive than ever.  However, in almost every other facet of the game, DMC4 has gotten a little more stale, a little less innovative, a lot more repetitive, and a lot less enjoyable.

It’s still a decent game, especially if you liked its predecessors and want to enjoy the power of the PS3 at a discounted price (as the game was released in 2008).  But to be honest, DMC4 probably should be the last in the series unless the makers are willing to take some risks and bring some freshness to the franchise.
