Should I start with DMC3 or 1?

DMC1 has a more atmospheric focus that none of the other games really touch on. DMC3 meanwhile is much more action-heavy, with a larger focus on cool combos and style. You can start with either, but I personally think it's easier to go from DMC1 to DMC3 than vice versa, mostly in terms of gameplay.
