A. Who the hell are you to say my opinion is wrong. It's not a provable fact.

B. It has nothing to do with graphics.

C. You still haven't named any games in the same genre as DMC, that came before DMC. Careful with your choices. They will be scrutinized.

 

What's to be scrutinized?  I need a 3-D game in which masses of something get beaten up.  Freaking Dynasty Warriors 2 fits the bill.


Also your opinion is eaisly proven wrong in that it isn't a recognized sub genre.  There is nowhere that has a sub genre listing for "DMC sub genre".  Not on IGN or any of those places.

 

I just think you don't want to give credit to DMC for some reason.

There is no listing on Gamespot/IGN for "Japanese RPG" so does that mean that JRPGs don't exist? Eternal Sonata is a RPG, yes, but it's also a JRPG. According to them, Mirror's Edge is an action game. IGN also labels DMC as an action game. Are they the same genre? DMC is an action games, yes, but it is also in a subgenre. You insult your own intelligence, trying to bring crap like that as proof about anything. My opinion is wrong because I can't prove it? How the hell can you prove an opinion?

There are 3d action games on the PS1.

However, there are a large number of games based on the original DMC that share a subset of features with the game. Most people easily recognize these games, and accept that DMC 1 had a huge infulence on the overall genre, and itself sprung forth a group of styalized games modeled after it.

Even if you don't accept that. it is downright silly of you to think that you, out of everyone who has ever argued this argument, know for a fact that the other side, my side, is completely and provably wrong because IGN doesn't list subgenres and Dynasty Warriors exists. That's an undeniably weak argument.

Speaking of arguments, I never wanted to get into this one, but you just wouldn' let up. I assume you want to make sure that anyone else reading this(no one, because they've started skipping our rants, I'm sure) doesn't give DMC the credit it deserves(and it does deserve it, and you should acknowledge that, or admit anti-DMC biases). Every game I've mentioned was modeled after DMC. They share similar features. DMC itself was modeled after RE, and to a lesser extent Onimusha. However, those games are in a completely different genre, survival horror(though onimusha is actually a mix of different genres, I'd classify it as an action-horror), even though they basically have many similar features(like Dynasty Warriors).

You act like your argument is obviously right. Close-mindedness is all that is. Especially when I believe that a large portion of the gaming community would agree with me, that DMC, Ninja Gaiden, God of War, and Heavenly Sword and in a different sub-genre than Dynasty Warriors, and they are also in a different Genre than Mirror's Edge. Just how specific do you want to get with the genres? Is "Action" enough? It is for IGN. It's not for me, when I'm describing something, I don't tell my friend that Mirror's Edge or Dynasty Warriors are like DMC, but I do tell them that Ninja Gaiden is like DMC, because it is. Ninja Gaiden was based up it. So was every other damn game I'm talking about.

Let this be the end of the conversation.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
