Devil May Cry

Devil May Cry is a videogame developed by Capcom Production Studio 4 and published by Capcom Ltd. The game was released exclusively for the PlayStation 2 console from Sony and debuted in August 2001. It can be classed as an action title played from a third person perspective, incorporating some fighting, horror and sci fi elements in gameplay.


Devil May Cry is the first game in the multi million dollar selling series and establishes the elements that will become central to all the releases. It tells the story of Dante, a seemingly normal guy who possesses a lot of demonic strength hidden deep within him. As he begins to realize that no other than the Devil himself is gearing up to take over mankind, he must draw on the heritage of his blood to battle the demons and make himself a hero.

It helps that Dante has been investigating super natural occurrences for a living and that he is a superb fighter, equally skilled with a huge sword and with his signature twin pistols, Ebony and Ivory. As the game progresses and as the fights get tougher, Dante will begin to use even more powerful weapons, some of them channeling demonic energy themselves.

The level of violence in the game is high and this, coupled with the quick paced action sequences, made it a best seller on which Capcom capitalized by launching sequels, the most recent being Devil May Cry 4.

GAMEPLAY HINTS

Defeat Nelo Angelo

The last time you fight Nelo Angelo (mission 17), he can be difficult. However, there is quite an easy, though lengthy, method to defeat him this time. Before the battle, make sure you have the Ifrit Gauntlets equipped. When the battle starts, get some hits in with your guns, then wait for him to teleport. Jump away from him and go towards the area he was originally standing at. Get very close to the glass pane. Wait for him to approach you, and when he is near, wait for him to attack. Jump over him and use the Ifrit Kick to counter. Note: When you are in the air, press Circle to do a flying kick. If done correctly, he should be on either the left or right side of the glass. If he is here, jump backwards. At about the top of your jump, use the Ifrit Kick again to smash into him. It is too fast for him to teleport, but not so fast so that he can block. Keep jumping away and hitting him with kicks until he goes down. If he gets away, just dodge his attack and use the Ifrit Kick repeatedly.
