Capcom aiming to make 'the perfect Devil May Cry'

Capcom has moved to reassure Devil May Cry fans that the franchise is in good hands with developer Ninja Theory and that together the teams involved aim to make DMC the best in the series so far.

They already failed. Significant number of fans hate new Dante so it's no longer perfect ; p

Liamario4799d ago

It's true though. His design is appauling.
Capcom are out of touch. They think Dead Rising it a AAA series.

midgard2274799d ago

dead rising is aa horrible game, after playin part 2 for a while i dont know why people like it. one button gameplay, retarded zombies no combo system, and its just a bad dynasty warriors which dynasty warriors is already bad.

now back on subject, yeah capcom failed wen they let dante's design look like this, i seriously hope the gameplay and story is saved. tho ninja theory is great on story, just not really on gameplay side

Army_of_Darkness4799d ago

You leave dynasty warriors out of this you bastard!! this is about ninja theory and their upcoming gay remake of dante!!!

(ahem)... Now back to dynasty warriors Gundam 2;)

sikbeta4799d ago (Edited 4799d ago )

The First DMC was Perfect, wanna do it perfect Capcom? you got the word wrong, it's RE-MAKE, not RE-BOOT :P

LoaMcLoa4799d ago

Good thing they've already fucked up the design -_-

Thoreau4799d ago

this is not dante, it is the lead game dev. placing himself in a game....

specialguest4799d ago (Edited 4799d ago )

This is too damn identicle to be simply coincidence. His ego is going to ruin this franchise.

Shanks4799d ago (Edited 4799d ago )

I'm waiting for Capcom to go bankrupt for a while now.
I really hope this is the final nail in the coffin.

the_kutaragi_baka4799d ago

i agree capcom sucks in this gen.

anyway At least we know 12 year old girls will buy and love this game... lol

limewax4799d ago

I mean no offence, but they do not suck this gen. Either you joined late or forgot some of the early years of this gen. Understable with how long this gen is.

But actually just to list 2 great early game Dead Rising (original) and Lost Planet (original)

The sequels died on their ass, proof they fell from grace DURING this gen. They started out pretty good if anything, and a return to their 2005-2006 releases would be very welcome

SnakeMustDie4799d ago

They still have Monster Hunter so it will be long until they go bankrupt.

guigsy4799d ago

Yeah seeing hundreds of people lose their jobs, yeah that would be nice...

specialguest4799d ago (Edited 4799d ago )

If Capcom bankrupt = No more SF, Megaman, & Resident Evil, then F*ck No! We need Capcom to stay alive.

Sure, maybe Capcom's newer franchises have not lived up to expectations, but these three franchises(SF, Megaman, & Resident Evil) continue to live up to positive reviews.

mastiffchild4799d ago

Every Resi release this gen has been crappy-all the Wiimakes and lightgun games AND RE5. Add in average games like LP1,DR1 and 2 alongside dross like CTYD, LP2, BC and DV and the picture is pretty bleak.

SF, MH and Z&W are their only bright lights these days as even the MM schtick is palling for me now. The state of Capcom is pretty weak and a long way below the standard of last gen for most folks cash.

specialguest4799d ago

I think RE5 has been unfairly criticized, because it follows a legacy of the RE name. In my opinion, after playing the game, it felt like an 8 in score, which is not crappy by any means.

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."

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

VersusDMC6d 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.

Exvalos6d ago

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

Cacabunga6d 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

Friendlygamer6d 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

monkey6026d ago (Edited 6d 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_Suzumiya6d ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde6d 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

SeTTriP6d 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.
