Predicting the Ending to Chainsaw Man Part 2

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I talked a lot about Chainsaw Man here. Chapter 231 dropped today with a rather difficult pill to swallow. More on that shortly, the chapter ends confirming the next chapter going to be the end. I been reading this story for months absolutely enjoying it. This won't be my review that's on hold until the author confirms Part 3 happening or not.

This will be a huge spoiler if you aren't caught up anywhere in Part 2 of the story. Denji & Pochita gotten devoured by devils. They speak to each other through this spiritual existence. A recurring trend through out the final arc. Of course, Denji freaking out for many reasons. Pochita decides to do the one ridiculous way to make everything right again.

For those that doesn't know Pochita has the power to erase devils on a conceptual level by devouring em. Pochita rips it's own heart out to eat to undone so many things. A lot of devils, Pochita or Denji devoured now existing again. War Devil no longer would have further beef with Denji or Pochita. I highly doubt her contract with the Governor of California going to stay after this.

Many devils that would continue devouring humans to no end suddenly go back to how things were. Prior to Pochita devoured the Death Devil. Pochita's logic is if he no longer exists with such a ridiculous ability. Maybe the world will be in a much better direction than it was currently going in. To clarify something else, Part 2 was very chaotic of a story.

The final battle ended rather unexpected from what I kept thinking could've happened. Asa gets to live is something I didn't imagine was a possibility. War Devil likely going to leave her body. Possibly return to Hell with mixed emotions. Denji gets to be with Asa in the end. This might not be the fairy tale ending people hoped for.

The world still going to be in chaos. A lot of destruction around Japan. It's safe to say without Chainsaw Devil. This world going to be more darker than ever before. At the same time, it will be actually balanced to a degree. If Death Devil decides to throw out a warning to other devils about causing hell to the humans.

I wouldn't be surprised a few devils gets killed afterwards. But she is considered to be the strongest devil in existence. I highly doubt most of them wants to get on her bad side. Public Safety is probably the one side I'm not sure about. They were caught going extreme methods to attempt saving humanity. Personally, I felt their actions would've further doom themselves.

Right now it's hard to say how to go about Part 3. Especially now the very devil the franchise named after no longer exists!!! There's a chance, things won't be as crazy as Part 1 following things. I know this is a lot to take in. Chainsaw Man Part 2 sure didn't hold back being mess up as well as being emotional. This felt like an ending to two characters stories.

Even if the previous protagonist ending up taking back the mantle. Regardless, Chainsaw Man should be finally over following the final chapter. I highly respect this author with a huge passion. Honestly, this might've been the answer along. What if the very devil capable of erasing devils no longer exists? It won't be all sun shines and rainbows that's for sure.

What we do know is majority of the damage remains. Things should quickly go back to normal following Pochita devouring himself. A rather mess up sacrifice for the greater good of humanity. There's no question, Chainsaw Devil always been my favorite devil in the series. This might not be the perfect situation.

I still think a few major changes are going to prevent things ever getting close to that level of bad again. In the long run, a lot of dead people from War Devil's contract will exist again. A large amount of Japan in ruins with a rather grim looking future ahead. I also wouldn't be surprise Death Devil finishes off her sister.

Which is the other real possibility. Let's be honest, being Vegeta to Chainsaw Man with such a huge ego. I wouldn't be surprise she ends up dead. We just don't know if Asa going to get save or die along with her? There's two ways War Devil's story going to end. We're already had a point there's no longer a need for any further fighting.

All the hard work essentially done. Peace is coming back faster than anyone hoped. I actually felt this ending is surprisingly fitting of the entire story as a whole. There's just enough darkness with light to make it a somewhat satisfying ending. I already know people quite mixed about Part 2 going to hate the ending.

Then again they been hating endings from Shonen stories for years. What's different about it happening here absolutely nothing!!! I personally compare the ending to Yu Yu Hakusho. Where a close friend of Raizen won the tournament. He enforces new rules that protects the human world. In a weird sense that's going to happen here as well.

If War Devil gets taken out while possessing Asa. Denji going to be further upset losing two people he cares about. War Devil won't be a devil of her word as well disappointing him. Stuff like this is essentially how this author works wonders. He knows just how to set things up with a higher success. Getting out such raw emotions that felt quite real not scripted or faked.

Either ways this could end going to bring out such emotions within people. The more positive ending or the more mess up ending with both being fitting for the story. This is exactly why I love Chainsaw Man so much!!! This story is much deeper than so many people realize. I might be one of the few people to truly understand the franchise in the world.

I wouldn't even be surprise another appearance from Fumiko. She made a weird deal with the STD Devil I'm not joking. Whoever she has sex with virtually becomes another her. Easily among the strangest characters in the story by far. I felt quite satisfied with the story. I don't even need a part 3 to happen at this point.

Leprechaun: The Beginning (2025)

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, close to a year ago. I reviewed two bad horror Leprechaun movies. Well it turns out there's a more recent unrelated bad horror Leprechaun movie. Again not connected to either Leprechaun horror franchises called Leprechaun: The Beginning. Don't go in expecting a lot you'll thank me.

Leprechaun: The Beginning (2025)

Parts of the story similar to the original Leprechaun movie with Warwick Davis. Both involves an greedy person that captured an leprechaun to end up stealing their gold. It's not a direct rip off of that thankfully. In this case, it was the grandfather who ultimately paid the price. It doesn't clarify how many years later, his family came to the mansion.

The family quickly learns about the gold with majority of them being selfish to begin with. The one character I liked was the leprechaun. I will give the actor whose not named within the ending credits some respect. Compared to Red Clover and The Leprechaun's Game/The Leprechaun's Curse leprechauns. He actually looks much more like an actual leprechaun.

He also has a rather interesting way about he does things. Sure the kills were kinda weak with my favorite probably holding up a girl then crushed her skull. If you look closely, one of her eyes popped out. The overall pacing was a little slower than expected. By the time, it gets faster the movie about to end. Pacing wise it's more balanced than Shiver Me Timbers.

The gold is inside a small chest. Which is similar to Leprechaun Back 2 tha Hood. The older ladies had different views on the house. In the end, you might see it coming which sister the true greedy one? Leprechaun tricks one of the girls to get caged. This leprechaun playing this off by killing em or find his gold.

Being a low budget horror movie. You know one of the casts playing a cheater. A little weirder since we don't actually get to see this person's secretary anywhere in the movie. The editing is a little better than some of the bad Leprechaun movies. I guess I expect too much from the main horror Leprechaun movies. Speaking of them, earlier this year Mark Jones passed away rest in peace man.

There's virtually no gold at the end of this rainbow!!! They did forget to paint the leprechaun actor earlier in the movie. Suddenly knowing a small chest containing gold shows up to the family. The leprechaun starts to be more directly active. I still haven't gotten to why it's tricky to discuss the movie yet. The ending is a bad cliff hanger leaving the door to a sequel.

The leprechaun knew the smart girl about to attack him with a knife. But he quickly forced her to repeatedly stab her mom to death. What I didn't say is how you actually trap or kill the leprechaun. The movie confirms two methods to trapping an leprechaun. Either using iron chains or a four leaf clover. But the four clover also can be used to kill him.

The mom decides to boil up water with a four leaf clover. Then she pours some of the water on a large butcher knife. It's even better than the usual knifes Michael Myers uses!!! Leprechaun: The Beginning should've used a different title. A lot of people would've thought of this as a prequel. But it's the only horror Leprechaun movie for it's franchise.

What's weirder is the same main movie company responsible for Popeye's Revenge. Not only does this movie but The Leprechaun's Game and it's sequel The Leprechaun's Curse as well. Indirectly I could've called this The Unlucky Leprechaun Trilogy!!! Personally Red Clover was much better than those horror Leprechaun movies.

Even throwing in Leprechaun: Origins. This would be for sure bottom of the barrel for horror Leprechaun movies. Even the worst Warwick Davis Leprechaun movies has stuff to enjoy. Yes that includes Leprechaun 4: In Space. It's not the stupidest horror Leprechaun movie concept. It just simply comes of being rather generic as well as boring.

The way most of these characters are written. You don't need to watch much of it to have an idea. How the movie going to end it's that bad!!! Leprechaun: The Beginning doesn't do the stupid fire special effect I criticized last year. Honestly, it would even lucky to show up in a horror Leprechaun movie marathon.

The acting isn't great but slightly better than those other bad Leprechaun movies. The big issue is the movie barely does anything to stand out. I will give the leprechaun actor credit for more kills I expect to a degree. I mean seriously why should a murderous leprechaun stab someone to death? The movie didn't over stay it's welcome as it was ending.

I actually loved the leprechaun's outfit. A few changes could've easily made him look like Baron Samedi. You know the God of Death in Haitian mythology? Also reminds me of wrestler Papa Shango later The Godfather. I'll take his outfit over some of these bad horror movie leprechauns. This movie only makes you wish you were watching the decent horror Leprechaun movies.

Let's not even compare any of them to Leprechaun 3!!! Yes I know this is a notably low budget horror movie. It doesn't help I seen some pretty amazing indie horror movies over the years. Obviously, Leprechaun: The Beginning isn't one of them. I rather had a more unique usage of a leprechaun than this!!!

Three bad horror Leprechaun movies from the same company. Now knowing Popeye Returns, a follow up to Popeye's Revenge coming. Who knows what more they'll do to either leprechauns or Popeye? What I do know though is this isn't even close how I would've done the concept. End of the day, you are better off not watching any Leprechaun movies from ITN Studios!!!

The only thing left is out of the three bad horror Leprechaun movies they made. Which one was the absolute worst? Well I think the review speaks for itself, The Leprechaun's Curse. I would think even it's not by much. This was technically the best of them. Of course, that's not really saying much though. Sometimes being the best of the worst sends a message everyone understands.

My thoughts on Marvel MaXimum Collection

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, Marvel is doing it once again. Somehow more surprised than Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics. They just announced Marvel MaXimum Collection. Which actually coming to Xbox I still can't believe this now exists!!! Honestly, I am very sold on getting this Marvel collection soon.

The lineup itself has a few notable mixed received video games. By now, everyone seen Silver Surfer episode of The Angry Video Game Nerd show. It's quite famous for it's high difficulty among hardcore gamers. Now it's being viewed as a cult classic. I really didn't expect Marvel bring this NES game back.

I previously played the XBLA port of X-Men: The Arcade Game. A great licensed X-Men beat 'em up game indeed. Despite the engrish within such lines as. "Welcome to Die!!! before falling down an water fall genius!!! This game was loosely based on a failed cartoon pilot. Now called X-Men: Pryde of the X-Men.

It's failure led to the awesome X-Men: The Animated Series. I still felt that game was the best part regarding that failed pilot episode. Captain America and The Avengers is going to be the one that differs the most between the versions. Majority of them will be beat 'em up games with the arcade version being the original version.

It's becoming more common that the SNES version a bad port of that game. It's more surprising the Genesis version being the best port. Of course we gotta talk about the NES game. It's more of a sidescroller you can sorta choose your routes with a few playable characters. It's more what you would expect of the concept.

I saved three particular licensed Marvel games last for a great reason. I had all three of them growing up on Sega Genesis. Software Creations developed them the famous weird eye logo game company. In a sense I could call this Spider-Man and trilogy since that's in their titles. I previously mentioned two of them a good while ago.

Both Spider-Man and Venom games are beat 'em up games. You can find character icons that briefly brings em in to help you out a little bit. Ultimately, Carnage ended up being both games' antagonist. It's safe to say, Separation Anxiety was a huge step down from Maximum Carnage. Maximum Carnage was among the greatest 90s Marvel games I ever played!!!

Now with cheats being among the many enhancements I could finally finish the game. Separation Anxiety does have codes through it's password system. I always preferred playing as Venom since I actually like the character more. I am still happy we're getting both of them soon. It's finally time to talk about one of my most hated licensed video games growing up.

Spider-Man and The X-Men in Arcade's Revenge was a rushed crossover game. You start playing as Spider-Man before you can play as some of the X-Men members. This game is not balanced when it comes to its' difficulty. Sure the soundtrack is easily the best thing by far. They do try to make everyone's levels differ from each other I'll give them that.

Obviously I plan to use the cheats to get through the game. Although if infinite lives among those options. I would like to play through with just that first. I gotta mention the famous Juggernaut boss fight. Just when you think you figure out how this game works. Boss fights like this will flip that entirely on it's head!!!

They did confirm an music section. Majority of these Marvel games going to really shine there. I'm more interested in seeing what's within the Archives section myself. Especially if it ends up being just as overwhelming as TMNT: The Cowabunga Collection. Thank god rewind is also included to prevent some bad situations.

It truly sounds like Marvel going the full distance with this. Just imagine an entire X-Men game compilation in the near future possibly Spider-Man for that matter. Although if it were possible for an Hulk collection. I'll be very up to playing that if it ever happens. Honestly, I really hope this won't suck.

My thoughts on Jackass 5 being the last movie

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, a little history about today's topic. Originally Jackass was an MTV show that ran for three seasons. A lot movies followed after the show ended. Right now, Johnny Knoxville currently hosting a classic show called Fear Factor. The concept involves a small group of people doing rather stupid, dangerous stuff.

From Jackass 2 to up, they shot enough footage to make em into two movies each. Knoxville recently started Jackass 5 going to be the last movie in the franchise. I don't know how that would affect some things. Like Jackass Presents movies were essentially their own things. Just curious if they continue things through that or not.

They always could do one of the recurring jokes into another movie. Jackass 5 should somehow be even bigger than Jackass Forever!!! I am talking very ambitious quite dangerous stunts. Of course, always expect something truly disgusting to show up. After all, this is all entertainment at their own expense.

Some might view this as evolution from slap stick comedy to doing stunts like these!!! I absolutely would love Steve-O to be in the movie. Highly doubt Bam going to regarding what happened with the previous Jackass movie. I know they got some newer members. This could be their time to shine in a rather huge possibly epic way.

Jackass 5 doesn't need to be the funniest movie of the year. But regarding how much of it is real, I still think we're getting a pretty funny movie. Knoxville might just be there since the previous movie was meant to be his last with the team. He might agree to one final stunt for the movie though.

They always get quite creative with the stunts. Not a lot of people realizes some gets changed due to one of them doesn't wanna do the stunts. Let's just say for argument purposes, some of them are braver than others. I'm not directly calling any of them stupid despite the franchise's name. They virtually started something that changed many things at a scary fate rate.

Back when Jackass was just a show on MTV. Just imagine how much changed since then? Of course, there's plenty controversial surrounding the franchise. Nearly every franchise you could think of has something people don't like. In that regard, who cares what had happened anymore? Jackass always meant to be a fun but dangerous concept.

Majority of the original members are close friends like an family. You know they got each other's backs for life. Jackass was meant to be much bigger than a show. Hell that's exactly why we gotten a lot of Jackass movies. The world not going to be the same after this particular Jackass movie.

The same director through all of this is rather impressive in itself. Whose a close friend to the team for a long time. I wouldn't even be surprised they use all the footage in a Jackass movie for once. Which haven't been done since the original Jackass movie. Nearly twenty four years ago no less is rather difficult to imagine it's been that long!!!

Bam lucked out getting into Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4. Personally I wish Bam Margera good luck. Jackass 5 doesn't need to be a particular Tom Green in Japan. What I would absolutely love to see. It doesn't even need to be the final stunt of the movie. It actually might be too ambitious to end up getting cut from the film.

They usually end these Jackass movies with a rather huge series of stunts with a lot of members. Well I would love they based major sections off of a particular Jackass movie. Showcasing this epic journey through out the years. Of course, this needs to end on a very high note. Jackass 5 needs to be rememberable from start to finish to live up to it's legacy.

My thoughts on The Mist (upcoming movie adaptation of Stephen King)

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, It seems like nearly every year. Stories kept getting adapted by the author Stephen King. I recently found out about The Mist with writer-director Mike Flanagan. Who previously worked on Doctor Sleep movie. Personally I wanna share my thoughts on what's known about his take on the concept he's turning into a movie.

I absolutely loved his version of Doctor Sleep a lot. I still haven't seen the extended version but I heard it's great!!! He had to convince King to making his Doctor Sleep into a follow up to The Shining movie he dislikes. To be fair, I felt he's done an amazing job bridging the two movies together.

He already stated he doesn't wanna recreate Frank Darabont's version. Darabont made some truly fantastic movie adaptations of Stephen King's works. Everyone criticized the ending Darabont chosen for his movie. Honestly, I hope it's way better than The Mist show version. To me, it was too far from the source material.

It actually came off more of a show that easily could've been an Silent Hill show funny enough. Despite the fact, Silent Hill stories mostly involves mysterious fogs not mist. I still felt one of the absolute worst adaptations based on King's works. I know this director also a huge Stephen King fan.

I could throw out some possibilities that might be in the movie. I have virtually no inside information at all. Which means if any or somehow all of this happens. Honestly I'll be a little surprise to a degree. The short story itself came from Skeleton Crew. One of many collection books King written over the years.

I also believe The Mist later gotten an stand alone release as well due to popularity of the movie. The Mist involves a group of people trying to survive from a mysterious mist. All sorta of crazy stuff happens as the story goes on. Just a normal day in the office for Stephen King lol. I felt one of the main characters was involved what caused this to happen.

Another likely thing that could show up in the movie is these creatures are more nightmare fuel. None of that based on your fears like the show version. It doesn't have to recreate John Carpenter's The Thing either to truly be terrifying. We could see with seeing people panic trying to escape. Very quickly everything goes bad that's difficult to watch.

I actually hoping we focus on a small group of survivors. They have to take huge risks to survive. Which includes often changing locations to better their chances at surviving the nightmare. This by itself already be doing more than the show. I also would like to see an unexpected cameo from Stephen King.

You know King has to show up at some point. I just hope his cameo fits with the theme. I don't even care King on screen for a few seconds either. I just wanna see King nail this cameo with a rather unexpected end to that surprise. I also hope to see one of these creatures gets captured. They believed they killed it until at a point the creature starts attacking.

I wanna see an scene they attempt to figure out what they're dealing with. Of course, this is going to be very disgusting to watch in many ways. Adding in that creature starts attacking people trying to examine it's body. The intensity going to go through the roof when that happens.

The Mist doesn't have to be the greatest King adaptation to date. Considering how great his adaptation of Doctor Sleep was. I do think it's going to be one of the finest within 2020s for sure. Right now I'm already going in with huge expectations. Notably higher than the show version please don't watch that crap.

Not only that, I also would like to see the military try fighting off these creatures. It's difficult to see which could be more effective? At the beginning, the military quickly falls would bring despair earlier into the story. I actually felt a greater impact would've been putting that towards the end.

Just when all hope seems to be lost. The mist suddenly goes away with not many creatures left. People armed that's left starts going around killing em off while rescuing people. Sorta like Night of the Living Dead (90s version) ending in a sense. The director could have whoever left close their eyes about to get killed.

Further surprising the audience that creature gotten killed before the person it almost attacked. This needs to happen quite fast for it to work well or possibly risking ruining the ending. If I were writing this the group would start out as a rather huge size amount of people. Quickly overtime, that number goes down fast scaring many people that's left.

Roughly an handful of people are left by that point. They had to split up to pull off a rather ambitious plan often viewed as a suicide mission. This by itself could heavily impact the ending. I'll watch this newer take on the short story soon. Maybe I'll do an comparison blog which I haven't done in a good while.

I also want the actual look of the mist look both realistic. At the same time, harder to tell when anything happens. Like a bigger creature slams into a large vehicle. Sending it towards the group with at least one person not surviving. I just hope the actual mist usage lives up to the scary factor King set into place.

Why Sonic series deserves to be on GOG?

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, GOG has many franchises within gaming. There's a particular one that gotten me into many things gaming as a whole. Easily among the highest grossing game franchises in the world. I personally been waiting a long time for Sonic franchise to get on GOG. Sonic always has been Sega's most popular game franchise.

Even with Sega's current direction I don't like. There's plenty of great Sonic games that should get onto their service soon. A lot of Sonic games I'm going to mention are really obvious. The first three Sonic games from Sega Genesis truly deserves to be on there. Yes Sonic 3 was split up into two games.

The later had an unique lock-on cartridge mechanic not done anywhere else. Effectively combining the two halves together with some cool extras. This also allowed you to play an infinite amount of levels version of the mini game Blue Sphere. You also can play as Knuckles in Sonic 2. Possibly the first of the lock-on games I remembered as a kid.

Sonic Adventure series are two fantastic 3D Sonic games. Both always been so iconic to me in different ways. Sonic Adventure 1 made story telling critical for future Sonic games. I also loved the unique textures of the locations. Still among the best voice acting Sonic games to date. A huge variety of game play to keep you busy for hours.

Sonic Adventure 2 introduced Shadow the Hedgehog. This might be difficult to believe but he's still my favorite Sonic character. I liked instead of each character had their own stories. We had two from the start representing sides to the same game. Among beating both of them unlocks the true conclusion to the game.

Sonic Mania later Sonic Mania Plus made by Sonic fans. Sega allowed them to make their Sonic 4 game. Honestly, it was a truly amazing Sonic game. Yes I'm now aware some of the people included done terrible things. I just wanna support the game itself that's it. Sonic Mania felt like a true classic Sonic game the fans waited a long time for.

Another personal favorite of mine is Sonic Generations. A lot of the stages can be played between classic style with Classic Sonic. The modern stages are played by Modern Sonic. Basically we get to swap between 2D and 3D Sonic game play that works amazingly well!!! So many Sonic songs you could listen to.

Not to mention, there's plenty great content outside it's solo DLC. The older versions had a port of Sonic 1. Yes I'm also aware there's a newer game compilation. I will be honest I haven't played it myself yet. I have spoken to an friend about this version. There's some weird dialogue changes in the newer version.

The true high light being an Shadow fan was Shadow gets his own game. From what I seen way better than Shadow the Hedgehog game. I also gotta mention Sonic Colors. I haven't played the newer version that's more mixed reception. I sure enjoyed the original Wii version a lot though. You can use these colored aliens like power ups to do some amazing stuff.

I also love the surprise interactivity in a few areas of the game. Sonic Colors was an amazing entry in the franchise. Keep in mind, I'm only talking about the main entries. Of course, Sonic has some decent spin off games as well. The first decent Sonic spin off game I played was Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine.

Yes it was originally an Puyo Puyo game. As far as I'm aware neither Sonic or Tails in the game either. End of the day this still remains an fun, addicting puzzle game. Obviously a few crossover racing Sonic games are worth mentioning. Especially if you love many Sega franchises for that matter.

I actually considered the ones I played better than most Mario Kart games I played. I would be very interested in playing Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. An honorable mention since it was a free Sonic game for April Fools a few years ago. The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog was a rather unexpected Sonic game.

The game itself played out like an mystery game. It was their take on concepts like the famous board game Clue. This easily could've been rushed out. But I quickly notice they put a surprisingly level of care into this. Eventually you get to play as Sonic was a nice surprise. Honestly, that's a great free Sonic game for what it is.

There's a lot of people heavily into this franchise. I do think if Sega plays their cards right. They'll be making money as well as many thousands to millions of fans happy at the same time. Sega mostly gotten Like a Dragon franchise on there. Assuming that franchise doing amazingly well.

It further bags the question when Sega finally going to put the blue hedgehog to GOG? Sonic has a lot of video games to begin with. I would love any of the ones that do get on there gets into their preservation program. Which means GOG directly updates the games as well as quickly fixes em when any major problems shows up.

Sonic was a major inspiration to the world of gaming. Let's be brutally honest, Nintendo never going to bring Mario to their service. You are better off with gaming's second greatest gaming mascot. Suddenly that should give em more reason to bring the Sonic franchise there. Sonic has been done in many genres to clarify.

This by itself means in some form. Someone going to find something they like with the character. Most Sonic games has such fantastic soundtracks. I know Sega still funny with the late Michael Jackson over Sonic 3 situation. Regardless, this is a franchise that earned it's place in gaming.

Of course, Sonic is far from perfect. Sega made plenty of huge mistakes with the franchise. If you're in the need of nostalgia then look no forward than this franchise. Steam already has access to a lot of Sonic games excluding a couple they delisted. I do think Sonic franchise going to be quite big on GOG.

It's the kind of news as soon as you hear it. You drop everything to look into it. Then you quickly have to go buy em afterwards. I do think a lot of people going to have that reaction. Honestly, Sonic could bring a lot of people in that never bought anything on GOG before. Which is critical for all parties involve.

Is Devil May Cry 2 Really That Bad?

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I didn't say anything about Devil May Cry 2 in my old Devil May Cry HD Collection review. I know this particular topic by now nearly everyone has done. I still felt like doing my own take on the game. I'm going to be brutally honest about Devil May Cry 2.

Not only it's the absolute worst Devil May Cry game ever made. It also is among my least favorite Capcom games I ever played!!! Don't worry I played both campaigns. A huge factor why this game sucked so much. Capcom chosen to do a stupid move right off the bat no literately. They had a different team from the team behind the original Devil May Cry game make this.

You can tell the DMC2 team didn't understand what exactly was Devil May Cry? In most things Devil May Cry, Dante is an arrogant, cocky devil hunter. Easily one of the most famous Capcom protagonists in history for that matter. Somewhat this team made him incredibly boring!!! Dante was now incredibly serious despite this stupid coin trick he does.

This was originally an two disc game. But it didn't make sense going that route though. A great example of a popular Capcom game that needed two disc was Resident Evil 2 classic. Majority of the content was on both discs. Neither could've held all four scenarios on one disc. Dante's portion on one of the discs with Lucia representing the other disc.

As far as I'm aware Lucia still haven't appeared since this game. Dante uses guns along with his sword like in most things Devil May Cry series. Lucia constantly throws daggers with her own devil transformation. It's a little weird both can fly when originally late into the original Devil May Cry. Transformed Dante could only fly during a particular phase against Mundus.

Lucia's campaign is a little shorter than Dante's. Some bosses are shared to a degree. I gotta be honest none of them stands out!!! In most DMC games your melee attacks deals more damage than your fire arms/projectiles. Not here, your melee damage is not ideal. It's notably lower melee damage than possibly those in most DMC games I'm not kidding.

In comparison to your guns as well as projectiles. You actually could cheat the game by constantly firing em. You are dealing ridiculous damage from those. This makes it pointless to directly beat up the bosses. The overall boss designs are very mixed at best. Some of them you can easily expose their disadvantages to win.

Usually they like to make you defeat some of the previous bosses again. DMC2 easily the worst variation of the concept to date. In Dante's final boss just the first phase alone was amazingly bad!!! You gotta face this ugly ambition of the bosses. Don't worry it actually gets worst in a way you won't expect. Griffon from the original Devil May Cry game appears in this.

Despite not appearing anywhere else in the game. I also gotta mention Phantom whose this giant demonic scorpion spider. Originally, Phantom can speak while he doesn't at all in DMC2. Multiple boss health bars connected with higher difficulties being cheaper. Two or three bosses could attempt attacking you at one.

Simply depending where you're facing. If you're standing right behind a particular spot you'll have three of them. Otherwise standing in between em you just worry about two of them at once. The final form loves to change genders yes you heard correctly. Until I gotten into Hell's Paradise funny enough. I barely seen this concept done elsewhere.

On the flip side, Lucia faces her creator whose possessed partly by the same demon Dante facing. Yeah I know that's both weird as well as confusing right? Somehow parts of this demon possessing a corrupt businessman coughs Heihachi Mishima rip off. At the same time, Dante facing off against the actual demon.

Arius also has two forms Lucia has to defeat. Even a few military vehicles becomes possessed are some of the bosses. The way DMC2 goes about it's story you won't be caring for long. None of the actual story was written well or makes sense. Ideally, it's about a few characters trying to prevent a powerful demon coming back.

This has the most inconsistent level designs in an Devil May Cry game. Yes that would include DmC reboot game as well. Some puzzles especially hitting switches are very low on time to pull off. You do get to see areas across two playable characters to fully see the game. Personally unlock Trish whose an awesome skin cosmetic in the game.

Trish can be played in both their campaigns. Which I highly recommend playing as her in Lucia's campaign. Some of the boss fights will test your patience like Trismagia. Three demonic heads that can come together as well as separate. They each represent a particular element making this. Strangely like facing the Robot Masters in Mega Man classic series or the Mavericks in Mega Man X series.

This boss constantly switching between lightning, ice & fire respectively. There's a boss fight from Devil May Cry 3 I prefer way more than this. Agni & Rudra being talking elemental swords. Which you can equip as Dante in that Devil May Cry game. As for the overall outfits selection it's alright. An handful of them were licensed by a real clothing line.

Devil May Cry 2 doesn't even have decent sound effects. Usually when you play an Devil May Cry game. You wanna listen to the sick soundtracks these games have. I can't recommend DMC2's soundtrack though. To be fair, DMC2 did introduce some cool stuff. Which became essential in newer Devil May Cry games.

Unlike the original Devil May Cry game, your save can now maintain process. While being allowed to swap difficulties. Bloody Palace mode may not been done well here. Eventually this became a popular mode within the franchise. If it wasn't obvious already DMC2 really doesn't like an DMC game at all!!! Thankfully it always was intended to be one.

Not sorry Ghoul Patrol moving on, Devil May Cry 2 somehow failed to improve over the original. Even DmC had more in depth game play. Notably better designed levels in comparison. Vergil has his own DLC campaign that's still better than these campaigns!!! The overall outfits in that was notably better. The fact DMC3 to DMC5's special edition nailed majority what DMC2 tried to do with two discs!!!

DMC2 quickly make you sick of every location you get to explore. Even the harder difficulties felt notably easier than in most Devil May Cry games. Especially when either you get loss or force to back track. DMC2 doesn't come off like a rushed game. It's more accurate to compare this to Earthworm Jim 3D.

Both these teams really didn't understand their respective franchises. Still remaining as their respective worst video games to date. What made Devil May Cry 1 so great was more notable in depth game play. The overall level designs were notably way better. Some truly rememberable boss fights especially Mundus.

Even with it's reduced screen ratio in either version of Devil May Cry HD Collection. I also gotta say the regular enemies were either annoying or amazingly boring. Honestly, you aren't missing much by not playing this entry. Especially when most of these games are way better in comparison.

Prior to Devil May Cry 4, this used to be the most recent entry. Capcom was weird not making a sequel to some of their games for a long time. Now along with DMC5, the two most recent entries are fantastic video games. DMC2 forever became sandwich by it's own franchise. DMC2 doesn't bring anything outstanding to the table.

In fact, what did it bring was much unneeded frustration. The difficulty itself is largely not balanced at all. Beginners going to likely struggle unless they played other DMC games. Most veterans played it for a few minutes then went to go play something better. You seriously won't gain anything by beating both these campaigns.

I'll be more direct I even commented on a now taken down GOG Wishlist page on DMC HD Collection. DMC2 would only get onto their service through the collection. Otherwise by itself that's never going to happen. Considering the collection has a few sections. Like viewing awesome pictures or listening to the soundtracks.

In a way, you could in theory find some enjoyment of DMC2. Simply doing those instead of playing the actual game lol. Devil May Cry 2 is a game that doesn't work at all!!! Indirectly because it's done so bad, the newer entries are constantly way better. Load times is among the best aspects when it shouldn't even be in the first place for this franchise.

DMC2 felt like they literately picked several ideas right out an hat. Thankfully you can replay levels to get enough in game currency to stock up on stuff. Which wasn't something you could do in the original Devil May Cry game. Some levels can be either quite short or a little too long at best.

Going back to getting lost within the levels. Yes there's swimming in this game it sucks. I surprisingly liked how the original Devil May Cry pulled that off. They even force you to face a boss underwater. You won't have much to go on when you get lost either. You can't knock back most boss enemies. DMC2 doesn't know what it actually is?

There's a cool trick with devil trigger for Bloody Palace mode. It does involve changing your settings to a different region. Then you got to correct enter in a cheat code. If you done it right your devil trigger in that mode never run out. Virtually guarantee you to grind all the way up to 9,999 floors. Although there's no true ending making it'll loop endless.

Devil May Cry 2 being left out the HD Collection would've made it even better!!! Honestly, I really can't recommend playing this Devil May Cry game. There's too many problems that makes trying to play it once quite an challenge. In fact, not playing it at all is easily the greatest thing you could do. Yes this is even worst than Resident Evil 6 and Dead Rising 4 combined.

Yes it Really is That Bad?
