The regular edition has the Japanese hard as normal, the hard is the Japanese very hard, and up from there. The special edition is essentially returned to how it was in the Japanese version plus they added Nero as an unlockable playable character. Though his fighting style isn't as developed as any of Dante's. Oh, and they also added a chekcpoint system so you don't have to start a mission all over if you die.

I think the game really shines on the harder difficulty and really should be played that way. On easier difficulties you aren't forced to utilize your moves and abilities to survive. I also kind of cringe at the checkpoint system because it would take away from the accomplishment and they had an item to create your own continues anwyas.... but if you get the special edition, at least play it on hard so that the difficulty is like the first edition on normal. I know several people who didn't give the hard difficulty an chance and gave into the easier modes----then they came away wondering what the big deal was. The game is filtered out into a button masher on easier difficulties. This is a hard ass game meant to be played hard. It forces you to be awesome. You are dying because you suck. Eventually though you figure out what the game wants from you, gain a little power, and its suddenly not so bad. Its a lot of fun and really rewarding.

That's part of the reason why I don't think as highly of DMC4. DMC3 is so deliciously hard that the starting difficulty in 4 is a cakewalk and you just don't get a chance to use some of your higher level moves because the enemies die too easily. about half-way through the game it ramps up and becomes about as hard as DMC1 (see still not quite as hard as 3), but its a shame the whole first half had to be watered down like it is.

I have Silent Hill 2-3-4, but cant play anymore after what I saw in the 2nd one, scariest shyte I've ever seen

Haha, no kidding man! The Silent Hill series instills a sense of warm agitation and dread like I've never experienced from any other games. Everything from the aesthetic, to the lighting, to the sound design (environment sounds and background music/noise) creates this curious wave of horror that is unmatched.
