This just my pros and cons with each Devil May Cry game and the anime. I thought about doing this for a while now so I'll get right to it.
Game order; 3,1,anime,4, and 2. DmC is an alternate game.
Devil May Cry was made in 2001 by Hideki Kamiya and his group in Capcom. DMC1 introduced a wide assortment of style, puzzle solving, and a new take on gaming of hack n' slash games and horror. Dante is a devil hunter who is asked by a mysterious woman named Trish to accompany her to Mallet Island, where the great Prince of Darkness, Mundus, is planning a return to the human world after Dante's father, the Legendary Dark Knight Sparda sealed him in a marble tomb.
Pros
-It was the first of the series and unique to other games at that time.
-Dante was considered a great lead character.
-The environment was beautiful and gothic.
-The weapons are interesting.
-The story was dark and pretty entertaining.
-Awesome music
Cons
-The lines are corny as hell
-The voice acting wasn't very good.
-Underwater battle
Devil May Cry 2 is the sequel to the first game created by a different group from Kamiya's. This one features an older, more serious Dante, who has been called once again by a red haired devil hunter named Lucia to help defeat a mad man who wants to use an ancient demon named Argosax to become an immortal and rule over the demon world and human world. This is Capcom's first DMC game without its original creator.
Pros
-Gunslinger and Trickster in one.
-It was one of the best graphic wise in the HD collection.
-Wider areas.
-Cool clothed Dante
-Playing as three characters (Dante, Lucia, and Trish.)
-Creepy enemies
Cons
-Slower gameplay then DMC1
-Unmemorable music
-Bad voice acting like DMC1, but a bit worse.
-Unmemorable moments
-Underwater battle
-No devil arms
-guns too powerful
Devil May Cry 3 is the third installment of the DMC series, and the game that brought DMC back on top. DMC3 is about Dante in his younger days, just getting started as a devil hunter. However, a dark tower rises within his city and demons begin to roam free. Dante must go through the tower and defeat the demons along with his older brother Vergil, whom Dante presumed was dead, before Vergil opens the true Hell Gate and destroys the world. Not only that, but a mysterious girl with a rocket launcher also has a score to settle with the man accompanying Vergil. Later on, a special edition was made where you could also play as Vergil.
Pros
-The game is fast paced and very action-packed.
-The weapons are all special and unique.
-The characters are improved in this one.
-the demons are more challenging.
-Memorable moments
-Endless fun
-Great music
-Style system
-Unlockable costumes.
-Play as Vergil
Cons
-Cheesy one liners (Not as cheesy as DMC1)
-Not as horror as DMC1
-No real emotion from Dante (My opinion) just a party crazy guy.
Devil May Cry animation was created with MAD HOUSE and Capcom. The story is about Dante, as he lives his day-to-day life as a devil hunter in a small city. Dante also has to look after the young Patty Lowell, to his annoyance. Dante is called on missions each episode and takes care of demons that terrorize people and does so with the help of some old friends.
Pros
-It lets us have a look into Dante's life.
-Patty annoying Dante (Lol)
-Lady vs Trish
-Dante kicking demon ass
-A more cool and mysterious Dante (To a point)
Cons
-Dante not that fun
-No real plot until the last two episodes
-Trish hardly in it
-Dante too powerful
-enemies too weak
-Final battle ends quickly
-don't like the way they look (My opinion)
-No stylish moves
Devil May Cry 4 is the fourth installment in the DMC series. DMC4 is about a new guy, Nero, who has a possessed demonic arm and is the descendant of Sparda. He was simply a knight of the order called "The Order of the Swords" until the man in red; Dante appeared and shot the priest. After an epic fight, Dante leaves telling him, he is not like the other demons. Nero is now sent to capture the man in red and arrest him. As Nero proceeds, he slowly finds out the order's true plans and has to choose whether to obey the order, or fight them, and possibly loose his girlfriend, Kyrie forever.
Pros
-Playing as two characters
-new mechanics with Nero's arm.
-Mixing all styles in one (Dante)
-Better voice acting.
-more challenges
-memorable moments
-beautiful scenery
-good soundtrack
-Good graphics
Cons
-Back tracking
-No real emotions in some characters. I won't say names (*cough* Kyrie *cough*)
-stereotypical anime romance (Nero and Kyrie)
-Kind of reminds people of Bleach
-Dante acting like a total ten-year-old.
-Dante's flamboyant outfit
-hardly any Lady or Trish
-Dice challenge
-not as fast as DMC3.
