Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening Codes, Secrets and Unlockables (PS2)

Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (frequently abbreviated to DMC3) is an action game developed by Capcom Production Studio 1 and published by Capcom in 2005 for the PlayStation 2. The game is a prequel to Devil May Cry, and is the first game in the series storyline's chronological order. Upon release, Devil May Cry 3 was widely criticized for its high level of difficulty, but was praised for improvements over its predecessor and a return to the challenging gameplay of Devil May Cry. Set in modern times in an enchanted tower named Temen-ni-gru, the story centers on the dysfunctional relationship between Dante and his brother Vergil. The events of the game take place just as Dante has opened up the Devil May Cry agency and before Dante's demonic heritage has reached its full potential. The story is told primarily through a mixture of cutscenes using the game's engine with several pre-rendered full motion videos. A manga prequel to the game was first published in Japan in 2005.
