Easy game completion
Use the following trick to complete the game easily with Lucia or Dante. Enable the code to get Dante or Lucia's Diesel costume. As well as having the option of another costume, you can repeat any level you have already completed. Simply repeat the easy levels to gain Orbs, and upgrade your characters.

Mission 1: Secret area
Enter the big doors to the right of the pillar where the Puia (flying harpies) first appear in Mission 1.

Go through the level until you see a wall with a face. Press [Circle] and you should enter a secret room.

Mission 1: Unlimited Red Orbs
Get the first Red Orb at the beginning then keep restarting the mission.

Mission 2: Hidden areas
Enter one of the rooms that has a coffin and bones in it. Go up to the coffin and press [Circle]. This will take you to a hidden room full of enemies and some Red Orbs.

There are actually two secret areas in mission 2. Both are in separate rooms where skeleton coffins are located. Check every coffin you see to find them.

Mission 4: Hidden area
When you start, look for the first door on your left. It is not very big and is sticking out slightly. Approach it and press [Circle]. It will lead to a secret area where big flying creatures attack you.

Mission 5: Hidden area
When you enter the barricaded area, go to Dante's left and fall off the cliff. There are several medium Red Orbs. Follow that until the end. There will be an Orb Dispenser. Go just to the left of the Orb Dispenser to find a garage-type door. Press [Circle], and there will be plenty of Homromsira in there.

Mission 6: Defeating the "head"
When you are fighting the "head", not when it is the full body, when it falls on the ground and starts shooting lasers, wait for them to stop. You will have a few seconds before it will go into the air again. In that time, run up to it and hit it with your sword on the open mouth. It will do double or triple the damage.

When the head floats down to the ground and shoots its lasers, press [Circle] to flip Dante around to the back of the head. Slash the monster while it is shooting the lasers. After it is done, using the sword will help Dante's Devil Trigger to fill up. When it is full, it will do even more damage.

Mission 8: Easy Red Orbs
The level select option must first be unlocked for this trick .Select level 8. Fight and defeat the opponent as quickly as possible without using items. You will get about 4,000 Red Orbs if you get a "B" rank.

Mission 14: Hidden area
When you start the mission, turn around and press [Circle] against the door on the left. You should enter a secret room with enemies to fight.

Mission 16: Easy Red Orbs
When you pass mission 16, you can get as many red orbs as desired. Go up and down the elevator, killing all enemies. Remember to mix up your attacks to increase your stylish bonus. Do not use a maxed-out weapon, as this will kill enemies too quickly and not allow you to get your stylish up fast enough. If done correctly, you can get up to 2,500 Red Orbs on each trip up and down the elevator. This may get tedious, but is well worth it when you get to the "Must Die" modes. Save your data when you have the desired number of orbs.

Defeating Argosax
As Dante, start from the first head and work your way to the left. Then, position Dante in between each head and target it with the Missile Launcher then take it out from afar. Tis will also work on the Griffon, but his electric attacks will eventually make their way towards you. The only way to avoid them is to Flip Escape to the right and get out of their range.

Press [Circle] every time you want to move somewhere, even left and right. When the time is correct, or when no attacks are being drawn, kick them with a missile launcher (since they cannot avoid attacks), or just give them a cheap shot using handguns. Note: Killing Argosax may be easy, but Despair Embodied is a different story.

This is much easier if you have fully upgraded the submachine guns. For the first head, hold [Square] while jumping over his attacks. After that, move to the right by the Griffin. If you are standing as far away as possible, he will only be able to hit you with the attack that is like a pair of scissors. As you keep working to the right, you can avoid the range of their attacks until you reach the Phantom. When he shoots fireballs, roll to the side until he stops and keep attacking. Use the same strategy for the jets of fire he shoots up. By now you should have a full Devil Trigger gauge. Use it on the giant gorilla to avoid falling down because of his attack. If you bought enough Purple Orbs, you should have about half a bar left when the gorilla dies.

Defeating Possessed Arius
Note: You can only fight Possessed Arius as Lucia. When you get to the second to last mission (after the part where you are in the Big Urobos Buildiing Corps.), you will have to fight Possessed Arius. He is also in Devil Trigger Mode. To defeat him, find the Embaka and have it upgraded to at least level 2 or 3. Have your Arsenal, Throwing Daggers, upgraded to level 2. While fighting, keep jumping in the air and pressing [Square] rapidly until you fall. At least every five to ten seconds, Possessed Arius will charge up (purple flames will form around his body). He will charge at you. Jump in the air and keep pressing [Square]. When he is behind you while you a're in the air, he might jump at you on the ground. When he falls, attack him with [Triangle]. It is the best way to get your Devil Trigger gauge at full power. If your Devil Trigger gauge is half to full, go into Devil Trigger mode. Keep attacking him; you will rarely ever fall down while you attack in Devil Trigger mode. When his life is in the red, he will take one of the pipe-like things on his back that always move and jam it into the ground, causing it to pop up occasionally, He will not die, but will transform another time.

You do not need to have anything leveled up for this trick, but you will need the Speed Amulet. Equip the Throwing Daggers. When you start out in the pit, run as far from him as possible. Throw daggers at him until he is almost close enough to hit you, then Devil Trigger and run under him to the other side of the pit. Repeat this strategy. Note: Your Devil Trigger should charge up just enough. If you defeat the second form quickly and you do this trick on the third form correctly, you should be able to get an "S" rank for time, and high ranking for damage, although style will probably get a "D" rank.

Defeating the Infested Tanks
Have Lucia jump on to the tank. Note: Make sure you have your handguns on. Jump once then fire. Before you land, jump again and fire. When you defeat the first one, do it again. Note: Watch your back, as the other ones might fire a missle. There are three of them.

Combos
These combos are based off of the basic attack mode without holding [R1]. These will help you get a better combo rating, especially if you do the first and follow with the second. Make sure not to hold [R1] button or you will do the Air Hike or the Stinger.

Three basic slashes plus a downward strike, then an upward strike that knocks your enemy into the air like the Air Hike: Press [Triangle]x3, [Towards] + [Triangle], [Triangle]x2.

Three basic slashes then three additional horizontal strikes. Press [Triangle]x3, [Away] + [Triangle], [Triangle]x3.

Equip any sword and the shotgun. Holding [R1] and do the following:

Dante will do a normal slash, then a cartwheel move while firing the shotgun. Press [Triangle], [Square].

Dante will do two slashes and pass the shotgun under his two arms and across his back, firing the shotgun twice. Press [Triangle]x2, [Square].

Dante will do three slashes and then go into one knee firing the shotgun. Press [Triangle]x3, [Square].

Once Dante has transformed into his Super Demon form (Ultimate Devil Trigger), he can use the following moves. Note: The Desperation Attacks will use all your Devil Trigger gaage, but are extremely powerful. The Ultimate Desperation Attack can kill any enemy in a single shot and can also kill most Bosses in a single shot.

Fireballs: Press [Square] (can also do while jumping or flying).
Twin Lightsabres: Press [Triangle].
Flight: Press [X]x2.
Spin Attack: Press [Triangle] and the Left Analog-stick in any direction (while jumping).
Desperation Attack (Divine Light Blast): Press [Square] + [Triangle] at the same time.
Ultimate Desperation Attack (Dark Energy Beam): Hold [R1], then press [Square] + [Triangle] at the same time.

Hold [R1] in human form, then jump in the air and press [Triangle] to execute three moves. If you press [Triangle], you will do an upward kick. If you press [Triangle]x2, you will do an upward kick followed by a backflip. If you press [Triangle]x3, you will do an upward kick and a backflip followed by a sword slash at an enemy that is on the ground.

While not in Devil Trigger mode (as to not waste your power), begin attacking an opponent. Once you begin to get Do Not Worry and your opponent dies. Use the handguns to start shooting your next target and Do Not Worry will never leave the screen until you are hit or stop shooting. Keep this strategy going until you get to Showtime and it works out nicely.

Fast shotgun fire and reload
Jump in the air twice, fire, and keep pressing [L2].

Quick recovery
If you get hit and thrown to the ground, press [Circle] as soon as you hit the ground and you will immediately bounce back up.

Dante: Moves
While in Devil Trigger, press [Triangle]x2, then quickly press [Triangle] + Analog-stick. Dante will shoot out a lot projectiles that resemble arrows. The color depends on what amulet you have equipped.
