GamesRadar: How far can we get on 360 while PS3 loads up?.
Devil May Cry 4 needs almost 5GB of hard drive space and a 20-minute install time on PS3. Needs. It doesn't mean it's not still an astonishing game, but there's no getting away from the fact you could have gotten through the tutorial, tackled the first secret mission and acquired your first special ability in the time it takes to watch that bar fill. And Capcom say it helps load times once you're in the game. Having played both versions, we really didn't notice any difference. Er... wasn't Blu-Ray supposed to make this sort of thing go away?.
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."
Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.
Still a good game though.
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
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
2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.
God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
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
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.
Two Devil May Cry games have been delisted on Steam. As shared on X, formerly Twitter, by Wario64, Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition and Devil May Cry 4 are no longer available to purchase.
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.
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.
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.
Devil May Cry 4 launched 15 years ago today, bringing with it new character Nero. Has it stood the test of time?
Never liked it and I think I got it day 1.
Cheap Capcom design of half a game that you have to walk through twice.
5 isn't much different in that department. Encounter the same boss three times with three different characters? Endless warehouses or alien-like tunnels that all look the same.
I'm actually with you there, but DMC has that terrible writing. Alex Garland isn't it?
Now that we have heard from so many reviewers about installation not making much of a difference, how about getting Capcom to come forth and tell us why exactly is it mandatory to install the game on PS3. Also why a mere 5gb takes 20mins to install and why doesnt it make much of a difference?
CAPCOM come here..
soo,whats the point of this, flamebait?
All I can say is a game like Uncharted which has 1 loading screen at the begining of the game. That takes no more then 3 minutes proves this was just capcom being stupid.
They should make a load screen comparison and see the "supposed" difference on the PS3's version of the game. (Still getting it for the PS3 since it's the only console I own)
I bought the Xbox 360 version and have been playing it for 2 days now. I had a friend bring by his PS3 version so that we could compare them. There's no difference what so ever. The load time isn't better on PS3, nor are the colors or visuals. They are the same. The only difference is that the PS3 has no rumble and that it took 20 minutes to install and took up 5 gigs (which I later deleted off my PS3).
