Devil May Cry 5 Hands-On Xbox One Demo Impressions: I'm All In

Capcom is setting the stage for what should be a fantastic return to form for the series with Devil May Cry 5, and suddenly the wait for the full release in March 2019 has become that much harder to endure.

The demo was great! The boss at the end, very cool! Not sure if there is a major difference, but I was playing on X1X.

Darkwatchman2056d ago

I was also playing on Xbox One X, but I have a sneaking suspicion the demo wasn’t Xbox One X enhanced because image quality was really really average. Didn’t look too hot.

Lennoxb632055d ago

Image quality was far from average. Must be your Tv.

Fantangoooo2055d ago

Yup, dunno but that played and looked wonderful so I am sure you don’t have an x1

Darkwatchman2055d ago

You guys get so butthurt over everything. Image quality is worse than the FF13 1728p with 2X MSAA and BF 5 dynamic 4K I’ve been playing recently. Heck, even Persona 3 and 5 Dancing on PS4 Pro look much sharper than that DMC 5 demo.

What are you talking about? I played the demo last night on my XB1X on a 4K TV, it is clean native 4K. One of the best looking games on console this generation. Your TV settings must be off.

Darkwatchman2055d ago

My tv settings are not off. I can say all these other games look sharper, but because this one game doesn’t look that crisp, it’s my tv settings. Yeah, okay, guys. Keep being in denial.

darthv722055d ago

I only have a base xbo (not even an S) and the demo looked fine to me. I'd imagine it will only look better on an X. Maybe you need glasses or something?

Darkwatchman2055d ago

If you’re only gaming on a standard Xbox One, I wouldn’t say your standards for image quality are very high then.

Downloaded it, but haven't played it yet, hope I'm in for a treat

AK912056d ago

I was a bit annoyed at the DmC inclusions, such as the awkard zoom in on Nero's face after beating a bunch of enemies and the random voice yelling "SAVAGE" and "BADASS" got annoying after a while.

I hope in the end product we have option to remove these because other than that the demo is rad and the gameplay was rad.

djsilke452055d ago

Sorry but I'm loving the "Yea Baby!"

WeAreLegion2055d ago

GDI. Why release a demo earlier on one platform? Nobody's buying a system for that. I'm so tilted.

BizarroUltraman2055d ago (Edited 2055d ago )

The way you say it, is as if MS paid Capcom to get Xbox demo exclusively to 'boost sales'

WeAreLegion2055d ago

Why did they? To be dicks?

darthv722055d ago

consider it like other early access games. That is something PS4 does not support, only this time it is an early access trial.

Is the industry hurting for money or not?

Hofstaderman1d 7h ago

They belong to XBOX. Its a dog's life....

Chocoburger1d 8h ago

Nice thing they did, but not actually gaming related, not sure why this article was approved. Also strange informing us what game Rare worked on, as if we don't know their legacy.

Tacoboto1d 7h ago

Sorry you hate dog news - here's a game-related headline for you, the latest: "Deathsprint 66 is a hyperviolent freerunner that proves game journos suck at games | Video Gamer"

Yeah we need more headlines like *that* on this site, instead of news about a studio's employee perks.

GaboonViper1d 7h ago

Its actually nice to see a story like this instead of the usual doom and gloom but people still moan, anyhow hope these beautiful doggos have a great life.

GaboonViper1d 7h ago

Really nice story, kudos to Rare.

I went to look at new apartments and saw only dog parks, no kid parks. We're so screwed.

Damn was hoping for a fantasy setting. Looks futuristic

jznrpg1d 9h ago (Edited 1d 9h ago )

I think that’s a screensaver if you look to the right it looks more like a fantasy game and so does the concept art leaked earlier. Who knows though

phoenixwing11h ago

Unless that structure/pillar thingy in the right picture is long forgotten technology it's futuristic.

Name Last Name1d 10h ago (Edited 1d 10h ago )

Another shooter? Yawn. Thought the prevous concept looked more fantasy.

just_looken20h ago

With there same look on the right a arena setting this might be live service game #5 from sony

So a live service shooter like concord.....

StormSnooper20h ago

It looks like a fantasy game on the right screen. You are looking at a screensaver.

Goodguy011d 10h ago

Been looking forward to what they have next. Looks interesting.

Eonjay1d 10h ago

Really excited to see them release an original IP

GaboonViper1d 7h ago

Looks like my dream of them remaking Metal Gear Solid is over, still cant wait to see what they are cooking up.

Unions in gaming are necessary fr fr

montebristo1d 9h ago

I used to be anti-union, it kills productivity, investment and turns product mediocre. Their games suck anyways though so what was lost? Might as well get their people paid until they are dissolved.

shinoff21831d 9h ago

Unions are necessary regardless of how you feel. You know how fked the working class would be without them. As if we're not already.

montebristo1d 8h ago

No they aren’t, regardless of how you feel. Unions make zero sense for skill based labor. They are for people who press a button every 10 seconds on an assembly line. “working class” is a made up term. I don’t care about corporations or developers, I just want good games lol. Killing your incentives to appease the lowest common denominator doesn’t lead to great games imo

montebristo1d 2h ago (Edited 1d 2h ago )

I wasn’t trying to be offensive if I came off that way. The Union is an old mentality and I can see their usefulness but also the danger. We’re in the age of AI and robots and skill based labor. Unions can be dangerous these days. You could replace your entire workforce in one move. Checkmate. Look to the kiosk replacing workers in the 20 dollar minimum wage era.

Well run businesses don’t need unions. If you need a Union that business won’t survive anyway. Unless it’s propped up by the government with corporate welfare (which is the real issue). If you’re not going to spend some on your workers (Amazon, Google) then your welfare is cut off. No tax breaks. All you put together don’t match their wealth and resources, the union is a traditional memory at this point and counterproductive with this new enemy we face. They need a flying elbow from the top ropes. And by “working class is a made up term” I just mean we’re not a class system and even CEO Bobby Kotick puts in a days work lol. Or did.. It’s just a vague term that doesn’t mean anything no offense lol. People say “middle class” but that can change quick right? Up or down. That’s not a “class system”.
