It's great, he only has 3 weapons but you can change to all 3 on the fly. His gun are these flying swords*Which look like they stole that idea from a boss in Castlevania* If you hold the fire button down they make a shield around him that damage things when they touch it.

He has Beowulf, Yamato, and Force Edge and Yamato. He has different costumes like Dante to. My favorite being Dark Virgil where he looks wicked. His skin is all pasty white and he's wearing that dark purple outfit from DMC.

His DT is Neo Angelo which is awesome. You can us his big sword and everything. Just like his boss in DMC.

Combo-ing with him is a blast with all the different weapons you can use. There's no new cut scenes except the opening so there's nothing new in that aspect but it's still a blast to play. He has all the same modes as Dante and such. And I think you get art for beating it with him that you can't with Dante and vice versa.

One of those art pieces is a screen shot from a scrapped Devil may Cry fighting game. It shows Dante fighting Neo Angelo in front of the tower from 3.

I think one title that absolutly rocked that we're all forgetting is Tomb Raider Legend. The game that made the franchise enjoyable again. Hats off to eidos. Also, hats off to whoever finally decided to release it on the gamecube. That being said:

Gamecube:
Tomb Raider Legend
Zelda: Twilight Princess
Mario Party 7
Lego Star Wars II

DS:
Yoshi's Island 2
N. Super Mario Bros

GBA:
Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis

I happen to agree. Tomb Raider Legend was a great game while it lasted. It finally made the franchise fun again. Even though the first couple were pretty over rated.

Lego Star Wars II definately deserves a lot of credit. I had so much fum with that game.

I think it gets a little too much credit. Mostly because it was a good game that showed up in the middle of a huge drought. At least as far as I see it. I was pretty much starving for a game, so LSWII seemed better to me than it actually was. Not to take anything away from it, as it's still a fun game and I probably would have still played it. Would I have bought it and played it as much as I did if it came out during a decent game release period? Probably not.

Almost like when the Spider-Man movie game hit in the summer some years back. Everyone bought that damn game, because there hadn't been a decent game for months. I remember me and a couple friends heading out to EB at lunch time, all of us picked itup, and there were several people in the store already getting it.

Actually, it was pretty much the same situation for me. It was after I finished FFIX again, but long before I got my Wii, so I opened up an account at family video and rented Ultimate Spider-man, since I'd just read through the whole series. After I was done with that, I still needed more to keep me occupied. I must have paced around the games section for about 45 minutes until I finally decided on LSWII based on a friend's reccomendation. It wasn't something I was particularly interested in, either, but there was just nothing there I wanted to rent. So obviously it worked out for me, but I guess I'm not sure I would have enjoyed it quite as much as I did if I wasn't so bored out of my mind at the time.
