Featuring Dante, one of the most iconic video game characters of the last decade, Devil May Cry HD Collection will be full of the award-winning gameplay and style that the series has become known for with the addition of stunning HD graphics, bonus content and support for Trophies and Achievements.
Debuting in 2001, Devil May Cry immediately redefined the action genre. The title captured gamers’ hearts through its stylish, over-the-top action and bad boy anti-hero Dante. Son to a human mother and a devil father named Sparda, the half-demon Dante uses his innate abilities and the powers of ancient demons to fight a one-man war against the forces of darkness and save humanity from damnation.
Devil May Cry 2 released in 2003 and centres on Dante and his new devilishly agile partner Lucia in their fight to defeat a man hell-bent on achieving supreme power. Devil May Cry™ 3: Dante’s Awakening Special Edition is the definitive edition of Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening, featuring a number of enhancements, including the opportunity to play as Dante’s twin brother, Vergil, as well as the addition of Bloody Palace Mode and Turbo Mode.

It's great to see these games getting released on 360 as well as PS3 as it no doubt opens them up to an audience that hadn't had the oppertunity to try them before.
All three original games are re-mastered to look pretty good even by todays standards, and the controls and gameplay remain as fluid as they ever were. The second game still remains the weakest of the bunch, but all are worth a playthrough as most modern action games owe a lot to the innovation here.
Only two things hold this collection back from being a full 5 stars. Firstly, the frankly bizzare choice of not re-mastering the menus for the games, the effect really jars against everything else. Secondly, and more importantly, the extremely odd choice of design when it comes to controls. The right bumper is used to control dodging, weaponry and special moves whilst the right trigger is left totally idle. This made the controls take a lot of getting used to, and would have been so easy to solve with just a little more customisation being made available. To be clear all of these options being on the same button is fine, it's just in an awkward place. Once you get used to it though, everything is as tight as it ever was.
Now that you can get the entirety of Devil May Cry 1-4 for about £35, it's a great time to go back through the whole bunch before the reboot 'DMC' is launched later in the year.

i remember playing 5 minutes of the first one and getting halfway in the second game originally so i had to buy this to play on the xbox but when i ran them side by side i was amazed, yeah its still got the original graphics with some tweaks (like other HD collections such as MGS and silent hill) but it flows a lot smoother and you can instantly notice your playing a classic series game but specifically enhanced for the latest console but keeping it original and true to previous releases,
if your a fan of the dmc4 game or enjoyed it on previous consoles then its a must have, or if your looking to get into a new game series then 3 games for this price isn't that bad.

i have been a fan of the devil may cry series after play and completing devil may cry 4, and watching the anime. When i heard the news that Capcom are releasing the previous 3 games on 1 disc in HD, i was more than excited. i knew these games will not be as graphical as devil may cry 4, and i knew the combat system would be different (due to the games being old), but nevertheless, when my game came in the post, and i put on devil may cry 1, i could not believe the graphics.
The graphics are truly an impovement, its smooth, voices in sync, and all of this retouching makes the game even better. I have only seen videos of the old devil may cry on ps2, but comparing them shows a tremendous improvement. But games are not all about the graphics, and i must say even though the games are old, they are very fun, and even to todays standard (some released games are awful), these games prove themselves to be brilliant.
All i am gonna say is if you want to spend a bit of money on a games (or in this case games) that you will play for a long time and not get bored, i highly recommend this, 5 stars

Great if you're a fan of the 'old DMC' games, or had missed out on these installments when they were released initially.
