I had a really hard time distinguishing between what the makers put in as humour intentionally and unintentionally. It was altogether pretty tiresome by the fifth level, and by the time the two queens put their handguns together for a JACKPOT of aids, I was committed to never playing a Capcom game again without hitting start in every cutscene.

This is why I worry that DMC4 will be all serious and SUCK.

That's what I wonder every time I hear some reviewer bitching about "OMG LAME PIZZA EATING NINJA TURTLE DANTE!", like when Game Informer called playing as silent Virgil an improvement. Everyone seems to have forgotten that they already tried serious Dante and we ended up with Devil May Cry 2.

I've only played 1 and 3, so I can't speak for 2, but in both of them I found the storyline eminently forgettable and the cutscenes best skipped apart from the visuals. The third is just unusual because it seemed that they were trying so hard to be all Excel Saga and not being halfway funny. Some were alright, but I just felt embarrassed for them even when I played by myself. The double gun scene was just too gay..
