40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game still offers a great challenge and can be a bit of a difficulty curve for many (including myself).

Even DMC2 has some good spots such as Dante's design, the soundtrack (specifically Shoot The Works), and atmosphere, but this review is gonna be split between each game.

Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics seem to remain untouched with the purpose of this port simply to allow users to play the original 3 on modern systems.
