Devil May Cry 1 and 2

Just got both of them, and let me tell you, I am having a great time playing them. They are actually extremely difficult. The controls take a while to get used to and the combination of buttons needed to effectively play this game is incredible. I've never had so much trouble beating the first few bosses of the game, and I can't wait to see what is in store for me later in the game. BTW, I just got Ifrit a board or two ago.

So, what do you guys think of the games, and do you have any tips for me?
