The graphics are so powerful my old computer couldn't run the game beyond 10 FPS and I had to buy a new one. This is character action (which seems to be what the genre is called nowadays but it works) at its finest, from banging music to three deeply fleshed out characters and their movesets. I also like that it retains the exploratory elements that give the levels extra life beyond going from one arena to the next. While I didn't find a lot, when I did uncover even something little I felt smart.

But the story is just as exciting and balls to the wall insane while still having a heart as it should be. It feels like V finished passing the torch that 4 began to do and I wonder if it's gonna be a trend with more long-term franchises. I don't want to spoil some great moments though they have to be seen to be believed.

Nero and Dante are incredibly fun to play, haven't spent $ on the storm that is approaching and V was an experiment that didn't always work but they were trying new things.

Very very fun game, glad I spent like $2k on a DMCV machine.
