whats the point of III and IV?
I mean it seems like they're just there to hint at something larger going on. Which I dont really give a shit about. I would have been perfectly happy (and probly even prefer) if it just stuck with the whole Tecmo VS SquareEnix for just pure random action.
Thats why the first 2 were so awesome. They show up, and start beating the hell out of each other with awesome combat. I dont want 2min of "intro", then 2 min of fighting, and 1 min of "closure" just to push forward a plot verrry slightly.
And I liked III better than IV, seeing lots of Kasumi swarm an aeon isnt exactly thrilling combat imo. but yeah, the field looked amazing.
So yeah.. in conclusion:
DF I and II - random hardcore action, no plot = awesomesauce
DF III and IV - lame plot overshadowing decent action = meh
