Darksiders II vs Devil May Cry
Darksiders II
Darksiders II follows in the footsteps of the original game in many ways, particularly the in-depth character progression system and an extensive skill tree, but this time around, you'll be playing as Death, the most formidable of all the four legendary Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Set off across a massive open world in order to redeem your brother's name, you'll stumble upon an ancient grudge that may decimate all of creation. Unlike War, Death is a lot more agile, allowing you to perform some impressive acrobatic acts which may unlock previously unaccessible paths.Despite the improved replayability, Darksiders II is simply that sort of game that you'll probably not return to often but is great enough to leave a distinct feeling and memory with you for life. And well, you get to play as Death himself... what's not awesome about that?
Devil May Cry
Devil May Cry is an incredible hack-and-slash action game from an iconic series where you get to assume the role of Dante (as in Dante's inferno), the offspring of an angel and a demon caught in between the very two worlds his parents are from. The game retells the famously-compelling story of Dante's origin set in a living, breathing and yet twisted world of Limbo, where monsters of all shapes and sizes lurk. Using both demonic and angelic powers that he possesses to deal with any enemy in his way, Dante sets off on a journey of discovery as he gradually come to terms with who he is and what powers he has inherited.Featuring high-octane and visceral, combos-based melee combat, a storyline that just reel you in, and a rich and constantly evolving world, Devil May Cry doesn't only do its old games justice; it actually surpasses the old, forging a new path of its own. If you like hack and slash games, this is essentially the epitome of a great modern game of that genre.
