I never really got into the original Devil May Cry series. I
played a majority of the first game and a little bit of the 3rd and
4th ones, but it always seemed as though the series was a
fairly good one; I was just involved with other games at the time. Apparently,
Capcom felt the need to reboot the franchise, so they contracted UK developer
Ninja Theory to handle the reset. Previously an action/puzzle solving hybrid,
DmC (No, that doesn’t stand for DeLorean Motor Company) strips away most of the
puzzle elements and relies on straight-up, over the top, demon-slaying action.
