Devil May Cry 1 and 2

Every Nelo Angelo encounter gave me trouble. I don't know why. I never had as much of a problem with the Shadows or the Death Scythes as I did with that friggin' guy.

I'm now realizing that Hard wouldn't be so damn hard if the prices for Devil Stars and Vital Stars didn't go up to 2700 and 4300 Red Orbs, respectively. I'm trying to get all the Blue and Purple Orbs first, then all the Alastor and Ifrit Upgrades, so I have not been able to buy 1 of either Devil or Vital Stars this entire Hard Mode, which as you can guess makes it very difficult...

Right now, I have all Alastor done, and only need Kick13 Level 2 and Inferno for Ifrit. I can also only buy one more Blue and Purple Orb. I'm on Mission 16 or 17 I think now (The first encounter of Nightmare) and it is giving me a hell of a time since I have no Devil or Vital Stars left.. I get so damn close, but I just need a little more life.

Raz, you should take out the game again, put on Alastor, Devil Trigger, and literally just run up to Neo Angelo and hack away. You will not lose, trust me.The only difference on the second encounter is that he can occassionally break up your attack and hit you with his glowing sword, so when it does glow, just Air Hike backwards to avoid it, then start the cycle again. Also, there are two green orbs randomly around the board to help out.

Eh, I've got a lot of other stuff to finish before I go back through that game again. I'm only halfway through Xenogears and I'm already at 40 hours, I haven't even started Tales of Symphonia, I'm still plodding through Four Swords, and by the time I manage to make a dent in any of those games, Pikmin 2 will already be out, quickly followed by Baten Kaitos, Viewtiful Joe 2 and Second Sight. I'd honestly like to go through it again, but I aint gots the time.

the 2 games are simply fun on the bun

I've read a few articles about both of them, and from all of the positive input on here I may go out any buy it.

The first one is certainly worth the purchase. It's actually probably my favorite game on the PS2.

It is definitely worth it. I don't really know why I decided to just buy it recently, but I'm glad I did. It is slowly turning into an obsession of mine, since it is quite possibly the hardest game I've ever played, and I'm not even on the hardest difficulty level, yet.

Great game, great times, and it is only a matter of time until Dante Won't Die in Dante Must Die.

Well it sounds pretty kick ass. I'll probably definately buy it because I haven't bought any ps2 game in quite a while.

I've only played the first one, I own it, I've beaten it one time and never touched it again. I didn't even want to play through it because I disliked it so much.

I just beat it on Hard, and I now have the option to play as "The Legenday Dark Knight", but I don't know if it is worth it? I wonder if he can use Sparda's Devil Mode after getting the sword?

I can't find any walkthroughs or guides that talk about the skills of the Dark Knight. He doesn't use Ebony and Ivory, and he starts with more than just the Force Edge. Its some other sword that he weilds..

I'll probably just beat Dante Must Die mode now and check out what the game is like in Devil Mode the whole time.
