Shouldn't this game also be listed under the puzzle genre, in addition to 'action-adventure' and 'hack and slash'? Atomicblue ( talk) 14:59, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
Extreme combat is mentioned in all the articles, and yet there is no article to look at 'Extreme combat' to elaborate more on what it means. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.179.235.198 ( talk) 12:18, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Devil May Cry (series) → Devil May Cry — Since the launch of the first game Devil May Cry has developed into a wide series consisting of numerous games, anime, manga, novels and comic books. Thus Devil May Cry is now more commonly referred to as a series rather than as simply the first game. The move is also supported by the disambiguation section of the naming conventions for the series. Hence the first game should be moved to Devil May Cry (video game) and the series page should be moved to Devil May Cry. An example of how this has been done before is that Final Fantasy directs to the series page while the first game, Final Fantasy is under Final Fantasy (video game) KiasuKiasiMan ( talk) 12:36, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
Considering that some Devil May Cry fanboy is actually removing references to the new chapter announced by Capcom i guess it would be better to put this entry under limited rights for updates. Is this possible? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Castef ( talk • contribs) 13:11, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
Another fanboy is also spamming the page by stating that the new prequel is a "reboot" that has nothing to do with the previous entries despite the fact that within the link he provided, developers specifically say that it is an origin story. We should probably have this page locked until the game's release.
I would like to mention that it's supposed to be an origin story FOR A REBOOT. DmC is basically a new series, and should be described as such — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.91.25.132 ( talk) 22:08, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I propose that List of Devil May Cry episodes be merged into this main article. With only twelve episode summaries, there's no good argument for it to be a standalone spin off list. Both articles are very short and therefore a merger should be simple and effective. The Rambling Man ( talk) 19:28, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
This is a video of an interview with Chris Kramer, Capcom's director of communications, where he clearly states that the chronology places Devil May Cry 4 after Devil May Cry 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0z9XFQpuRs
This makes perfect sense since at the end of Lucia's story she hears Dante's motorcycle outside of his shop, then she goes out to see who it is but he races off. Also, after Dante's initial appearance in Devil May Cry 4, Nero clearly states "Guy just came from Hell, he's gotta hit up a couple tourist sites."(Exact quote from the game which can be confirmed in the Story Theater section). It's still questionable as to Nero's whereabouts, but perhaps Dante went to hell to rescue him after he defeats Virgil. Maybe Nero is the half-brother or son of Virgil, explaining why he has the Yamato ability. UnReAL13D ( talk) 16:41, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
This article is sorely lacking some pictures or short video clips that are representative of what makes it distinctive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.248.125.108 ( talk) 17:44, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
