They should call Chaos Legion, Devil May Cry 3 cause for the fact that its so god damn great, on August 8th i will have this game in my hands. It is so amazing from what iv seen on TV, this is an Action RPG/Adventure game that will surely rock the charts as DMC did, and way better i predict. The cutscenes are excelent, not somthing you would ever see in a game like this...but i dont think i should comment on the names. Anyone who loves the Devil May Cry series must get Chaos Legion! I give it 5 stars, but its worth 10, heck its worth a star for every dollar it costs !
-Hyperblade out.

A Fantastic Action Game!!!!!

I have noticed that the other reviews so far don't say much about the game, so I am going to try to give a better idea of what this game is like. This game was made by one of the head guys behind Devil May Cry. That alone should pique most players interests. This game is the absolute best action, "hack and slash" game I have ever played. I have played through both of the Devil May Crys and the Onimushas, and I think this one is better than any of the other two combined. First of all, the action is great. Each level is challenging enough to give a gamer a couple of run throughs to beat it, but it isn't hard enough to be frustrating, and if it is for you, you can always cut it down to Easy difficulty level. Sieg and the Chaos Legion summoning system works well together. Before each level, you can equip two legions (whichever two you think will be needed in the level, whichever two you like best, or whichever two give your favorite power-ups to Sieg), and during the level you can summon the legions to fight alongside you, or send them in for a quick special attack. This allows two styles of fighting; a grand melee style, or a more conventional hero with special powers style. The grand melee can be maintained as long as the Legion's health meter is up. This meter is filled from the souls of your vanquished monster enemies. Each legion can give Sieg special powers too. For instance, the Flawed legion can give the special powers of jumping higher and double jump. These special abilities can be unlocked by leveling up the legion. Yes, that's right, during intermission screens (in-between levels) you can level up the legions that were equipped using the experience they gained from fighting through the level. Also, there are experience gems that can be used on any legion to give them experience. Later on in the game, there are items that allow you to level up your legions to the point that you may use their special abilities even when they aren't equipped; thus, this allows you to use the other legions while still keeping your favorite abilities. Finally, I must talk about the story. The storyline of this game is very good (the best I have seen in an action game), and it isn't exactly what it may seem. The cut sequences are the best I have seen in visual style. They look like a really well done movie. One of the best touches is that flashbacks are done in a "grainy film" way. It makes the cut sequences even more beautiful and the game even more enjoyable. I hope that some of you out there will buy this game and enjoy it as much as I have.

Like DMC, but good

Got the game this morning. The graphics are great, and the story line has an interesting slant. I have only been playing a couple of hours, but I can't wait to get back to it. The only negatives are sometimes it is tough to see what's around you because of the camera angle, but it's not that often, and it's easy to learn to live with it.

Not so good as DMC

In fact, This game is not so good as DMC (not including DMC 2, which is very ...). Why? The role doesn't have many special moves as DMC, and too many monsters reduce the game speed. I would like to say. If you like action game, DMC should be better than this. If you like action RPG, Dark Cloud 2 is the best for now. However, I would like to give this game 4 stars. Why? Because of the Region system. The role can equip different region and get different abilities and attack methods. The key point for DW 4 is the characters, not Guards. However, you can enjoy more fun from the Guards (Regions) in this game. The story line is short, and not so well. If you like to kill a lot mosters for level up your character. This game is good for you. If you like some special challenge moves like DMC or long-long good story like FFX. This is not the right game for you. Finally, I would like to say. You need to try this game for its new system, but it's better for you to rent it to finish in couple days if you have a free weekend.

Devil May Cry meets Dynasty Warriors!

When going into battle, it's good to have somebody watching your back, but when you've got the ability to summon creatures of darkness to kick butt, you'd be a one man wrecking crew! Such is the premise behind Capcom's latest offering, Chaos Legion. Playing as the knight Seig, you have at your command demonic "Legions" to help wipe out the hordes of enemies that swar onscreen. This game offers some great fun, and controling the Legions is a blast! The enemies, other than the boss characters, are not that varied but it doesn't matter much, since you'll beat a path through them in no time at all. The only flaw in the game comes in the form of the level design. While pretty good, it seems like the levels are merely the backdrop for slicing the hordes to pieces. If the level designs could have incorporated more terrain usage to help with strategy, then this game would've been perfect. As it stands though, Chaos Legion is still a blast to play, and beating it multiple times on progressively harder difficulty levels unlocks secret bonuses! Having fun and letting the Legions do the dirty work, it's all in a day's work for Seig...

AND YOU THOUGHT DEVIL MAY CRY WAS COOL!?

Man,than this will blow you away!!I can't believe how amazing this game is.First of all,let me stress how beautiful the graphics are.When I first started playing this game,my jaw dropped because the graphics looked as fluid and life-like as they do when then cinema plays.Also prepare to be amazed the first time you summon.Wow!Way to go Capcom!

Second,and most importantly,the gameplay!There is a good reason that the name of this game is Chaos LEGION;you fight armies and armies of demons.Think just like the Dynasty Warriors games,only take away the asian feel and add a very gothic touch!When I first started playing this game,I wasn't really paying much attention to the storyline or the directions that tutor you on how to do certain moves.I was just having SO much fun chopping up hordes of enemies!Later on I learned how to do diffrent moves and command my summon spirits to perform certain commands.Just Excellent! Experience gaining system is similar to DMC,but with much more improvement. Basically you still collect the souls of your enemies(only ALOT more at once)and for every 100th demon you kill you get an item.So you can really stock up on items and bulk up experience in this game as the enemies can be limitless(granted that you don't kill the monster generators first!)I guess Capcom borrowed an element from Gauntlet.

Third,is the sound.Voice Acting is great and even better than DMC.Also the lip synching is better matched to the words to make it look like they are actualy speaking the dialouge.But more importantly is the soundtrack.Beautifuly orchestrated music
with a passionate rhythm.Reminds me of the soundtrack for Castlevanaia:Symphony of The Night....only better.I was really impressed by the music that plays during boss fights.

Lastly,the storyline is as you would expect it to be:dark and masterfully written.I'm not going to go into detail;you'll just have to experience it yourself.To quoate a caption on the back of the game case,"If you loved Devil May Cry,then you'll love Chaos Legion!"They aren't kidding!This game delivers everything you could want and then some.Buy a copy now!

Alright everyone righting a review is like this game gets 5 stars because it looks. Man you gotta play the game first before you rate it. I mean what if the camera angle is wrong or the controls are horrible.. That is the downfall of alot of games that look so so cool give me a break. I mean devil may cry was a great game then everyone thought the second one would be great but it [was bad] compared to the first one you just dont know...

this games graphics are the only thing like devil may cry the game play [is awful] the game has no story plot. the only reason i give it 2 stars is because when i first bought it with silent hill 3 i though this game was awsome the first day then when i played it the next day i realy got into it and realized that this game wasnt as good as when i first played it. if you want a good game buy silent hill 3. dont waste your money on this [junk].
