Devil May Cry series is well known for it's fast, hack & slash type of combat along with great map design and compelling story. But this is Devil May Cry 2 so...
In this video I wanted to demonstrate the feeling you get while playing DMC 2: bloated, uninteresting gameplay with a mediocre story and pretty rubbish combat.
Out of all the DMC games I've played (and most people also agree), this might just be the worst out there. There are some saving graces here and there (like the banging soundtrack and cool setting) but it doesn't save it at all.

I do not own ANY of the music that is used here.
Music used in order:
Nostalgia Critic theme, Street Fighter Alpha: Dan Theme, Who Wants to be a Millionaire ost, Street Fighter EX Plus: Strange Sunset (Guile theme), Street Fighter 3 Second Impact, Giant Attack: Sharp Eyes (Ibuki's theme), Akira: Tetsuo's theme, Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne: Talk, Shin Megami Tensei 2: Disco (PSX)
