Snickersnack: Beware, DMC3 is an excellent game but a very poor port.
liquidsnakehpks: ?its a ported series alright but how a bad port? i found the special edition good it had good graphics for the time and controls were ok too i dont know how it qualifies for what you say?
I don't think DMC3:SE's graphics have ever looked good for a pc game. This game's strength lies in the mechanics and perhaps style.
Here are some highlights:
* no widescreen in 2006
* bad non mouseable ui with mysterious stock keyboard binds for menu navigation. expect to kill it with task manager the first time you run it. ;)
* alt-f4 to exit program
* crappy external gamepad configuration utility and no xbox360 pad support without editing config files
* move lists only lists instructions for default binds. useless.
* even if movelist updated to reflect your current binds, you'd be left with USB button numbers.
* game is unplayable without a gamepad. (this need not have been the case. Darksiders has serviceable keyboard and mouse input)
Don't get me wrong, I'd much rather play the PC port than the ps2 version but trying to set it up for the first time is a real PITA. Potential buyers should know this going in.
