I think maybe there's just a problem with the even numbered entires in this series, don't get my wrong this is MILES better than 2, but it's also not as good as 3, but maybe a little better than one, I'd have to think about it more; this is however... Good. I liked Nero he's fun enough, Dante is great but the levels he's used in are not as good as Nero's but he's less fun to play as, it's just a bit of poor positioning all 'round really.
