DMC4 Hands-On - PS3/X360 Identical and Demo Close

Gameplayer has gone live with their thoughts on one of 2008's biggest releases, Devil May Cry 4, following a hands-on with the game. They played both versions of the title on what they believe is a ready-to-go demo.

"This makes us think that what we played was actually a genuine demo that is set to be released on both formats as a download in the near future… maybe even post-TGS."

surprising people with demo's (Lost Planet). I think that strategy worked well for them and we will see a DMC demo real soon. I also think Capcom will be true to both platforms and make a game that matches for both the PS3 and 360.

akaFullMetal6496d ago

i still think because they went multi alot of ps3 owners feel somewhat betrayed, and wont get it, i mean you never see these articles of dmc go up to 1000 anymore on this site after capcom said it was multi, and for some reason im not hyped for this game, maybe i will later but right now im not??? weird?

BloodySinner6496d ago

Well, that's just too bad for them, isn't it? We gain, they "lose".

jackdoe6496d ago

It's kind of like the whole Paramount HD-DVD exclusive dealy. When people bought a Blu-Ray player, they expected to get a Paramount movie. Same here. When people bought the PS3, they expected to get DMC4 exclusive. I mean, Capcom could have avoided the backlash of a lot of fans by announcing up front that the game would be multi. They could also win fanboy support by making the next Lost Planet and Dead Rising multi.

WIIIS16496d ago

Yeah, its going to be the same reaction when the announcements are made for MGS and FF.

jackdoe6496d ago

Lol. In your dreams BS3. Not at this TGS.

SlappingOysters6496d ago

I just don't get this at all. your paramount example is a joke. you can still get DMC4. if you choose not get the game on principle, then you've giving Capcom more reason to ignore PS3. if there is no change in the quality of the game why would you care that it is on X360 too. Or are you just annoyed that you spent extra money on a PS3 for games you could have played on an X360 - that argument I understand

xaphanze6496d ago

no not weird, im not hyped either. Capcom did betray us.

xaphanze6496d ago

3 exclusives for ps2. Nothing more to say.

Lavagasm6495d ago

2 exclusives, DMC3 is on the PC. Personally I would be angry myself if I found something I specifically bought a console for was no loner exclusive. But on the other hand it is a good thing that more people are getting to play DMC4. This is an amazing series, I loved all three on my PS2, and I'll love the new one once is comes out.

EZCheez6496d ago

This game has pretty much fallen completely off my radar.

Not that I never liked it though. I loved the original. This whole exclusive spin has also kind of soiled this game for me. So much argument over a game that isn't even out yet. Of course, that's what we're doing on this site every day, isn't it?

jackdoe6496d ago (Edited 6496d ago )

Nice. Will be waiting for the demo.

-edit- Lol. Got a disagree for saying that I would be waiting for the demo. Gotta love N4G.

DMC2 ranked 2nd and also DmC ranked 3rd?
What a load of BS!

ABizzel176d ago

IMO

6. DMC2 6/10
5. DMC4 7.5/10 (Hated Nero, repeat bosses, Dante was the saving grace but only about half the game)
4. DmC 7.5/10 (solid overall, some great ideas, meh story, dialog sucked, and the director almost killed DMC)
3. DMC1 8.5/10 (all around solid)
2. DMC5 9/10 (carried by Dante & Nero gameplay, I didn’t like V’s, Nero’s better but still not a fan)
1. DCM3 10/10 (chef’s kiss)

Vits76d ago

Well, it worked.

This nothingburger of a opinion article got a lot of views and comments.

Pyrofire9576d ago

WHAT!? who in their right mind would put 2 near the top (not at the bottom) unironically?
I think all of them are worth playing in their own right honestly, except 2 unless you REALLY want to experience the whole series.

FinalFantasyFanatic75d ago (Edited 75d ago )

I honestly don't know what the author was smoking, personally I'd rank DMC3 as no.1, maybe DMC5 as second, DMC1 as third, DMC4 as fourth, and DMC as fifth and DMC2 last. such a bizarre list, mybe the author just has strange taste.

DMC2 anywhere but last is crazy. Awful list overall.

BlaqMagiq176d ago

"Devil May Cry 2 isn’t trash. It’s just misunderstood by a fanbase that doesn’t like change."

This and putting DMC 2 number 2 is all I need to ignore this ranking. DMC2 is absolute trash and it's clear this person doesn't understand exactly why.

Flenter76d ago

For me: 3,1,5,4,2 and then .....Dmc

fsfsxii76d ago (Edited 76d ago )

Why is DmC last? Genuinely curious.

lellkay76d ago (Edited 76d ago )

Dmc is far superior to DMC2 come on

generic-user-name76d ago

"almost 20-year-old series"

It's 24 years old.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

VersusDMC438d ago

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC438d ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Exvalos437d ago

What a weird name, it's essentially devil may cry, devil may cry lol

Cacabunga437d ago

Best to good for me: 3, reboot, 1, 5

2 and 4 are trash, didnt like any of them.
5 has very good gameplay variety but i hated the foes.. it is just insects the whole time. Reboot has the best foes for me

Friendlygamer438d ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey602438d ago (Edited 438d ago )

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya438d ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde438d ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

SeTTriP437d ago

This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.

Bless the adorably all digital future! When it comes to PC games its not as big of an issue because there should always be another way to access single player games, but still, I hate to see anything get delisted.

Aaroncls7515d ago

Well, DMC4 special edition has a lot of issues to run from Steam.
I have to get a modded executable to even be able to run the game on Windows 10.
Not sure if it is because the game runs in DirectX10 or what, but it sucks they have not even tried to fix it.

Sephiroushin514d ago (Edited 514d ago )

DMC4 Special Edition is not delisted, it was just the standard version, it has nothing to do with issues of performance or anything alike. Its just that Capcom probably do not want to sell the standard version, neither the standalone DMC3 version.
