Devil May Cry 4 was an amazing stylish action game from 2008 that offered (and arguably still offers) the deepest combat in the series at the time. Personally it was my favorite in the series when I first got into it, and to this day remains one of my most played across its various releases. The game basically kept the series alive with how the hardcore fanbase took to its mechanics and all the crazy tech until its Special Edition release in 2015 replaced it in the eyes of many. Beyond the combat, it has a great over the top style and graphics that hold up wonderfully, backed up by a killer soundtrack. The original PC port also offered a Turbo Mode like DMC3SE that sped the game up 20%, and a new difficulty in Legendary Dark Knight which massively increased the enemy count per fight. It's also got 20 save slots which is way better than Special Edition's single save, and generally runs better on older machines (honestly even newer ones in my experience). I'd love to see the game's original PC port preserved as it's a fantastic way to play the game today.

Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.
