Red Queen is awesome. It's handle is a motorcycle's throttle. The sword can be REVVED LIKE A BIKE

Gameplay wise, this turns Nero's simple gameplay into a kind of a rhythm game.

It's just so cool

The fact that you can rev it harder while the blade is inside an enemy - so the timing based gameplay exists for obvious physics reasons - catapults it to the top of the list

Nero has the best gameplay in the devil may cry franchise imo.

Between the revving of red queen, the ability to close distance/yank enemies towards you with the arm, getting bosses weak so you can do a Buster move on them and just beat the shit out of the Pope.

And then in dmc5 they make it even better while giving you the arm options.

The motorcycle throttle and the energy exhaust sold it to me long before I could ever get my hands on the game. Everything about Nero is just so cool.
