DmC Devil May Cry: Visual Art Paperback – 6 May 2014

Summary:Beautiful artworkInteresting comments from team behind the gameWell constructedGood quality paper and printsReview:If you've played the game to death, like I have, then you've probably already seen the majority of the art presented in this book within the extras section of the game menu. That might make you think this book is a bit pointless and... well... if you're looking to get this book just for the artwork and you have unlocked all the in-game concept art then I daresay this book will be a disappointing purchase for you. The book is more than just pictures however. There are numerous comments throughout the book highlighting interesting tidbits of information relating to changes in character and setting and the overall book is presented in a highly stylized manner, similar to the game itself.The book has clearly had a great deal of thought put into its layout with everything being divided into 3 main sections: characters, devils and then levels. Each section is presented in a logical manner with everything being presented in a mostly chronological order. The book is very well constructed and every page is vibrant in colour. The paper itself is also of high quality similar to the glossy feel of movie posters so no worries of smudging the beautiful artwork as you flick through the pages!The bottom line is:If you own the game, have 100% completion, don't mind turning on your console every time you want to see the games concept art and don't care much for the comments from the developers then there's not much new to see in this book and you may want to give it a pass.For everyone else this is an incredible art book and presents an interesting look at the development of the game and makes you ponder the many directions it could have taken throughout the creative process, interesting stuff!
