Devil May Cry on PS3 to feature exclusive content?

In this month's issue of Famitsu, a popular Japanese magazine, they reveal that Capcom will be including exclusive features in the PS3 version of Devil May Cry 4. Some of these new features include; 5.1 LPCM audio, PSN support, and the option to install data to the hard drive. Apparently though, game data takes up 5GB of storage, but on the bright side of things, it removes all load times in the game.

[lynx1halo]

thats all right with me .....

@KidMakeshift

True ..True......that is the only thing about the PS3 i could do without is the download times.......I mean is it really necessary to download a demo and then download it again to your PS3??(Hardware wise I know it is but still)

[KidMakeshift]

Yeah, but think about how long that install is going to take. Why are PS3 installs so slow?

Gamersyde has some new videos of DMC4

[Azures]

It won't take that long. Ninja Gaiden did something similar.

[Kleptic]

well if it makes as big of a difference after the install as it did for UT3...I am all for it...UT3 is officially the only console UE3 based game that no longer has "real time texture loading", as long as you use the install game utility (it has just as much texture pop in as any other UE3 game if you don't)...I absolutely despised that ugly crap in Vegas and Gears...and apparently ME has it worse than most UE3 games, although I haven't noticed it nearly as much as I did with the Gears cutscenes...

oh well though...still not too interested in this game...GoW 3 has my interest as far as action games go...and 360 owners shouldn't care either, NG 2 will stomp this junker without a sweat...

[KidMakeshift]

Yeah, UT3 for PS3 has been playing perfectly for me.

I don't get the user mod importing. It sound's complicated

[marinelife9]

Uncharted spoiled me with getting to play through an entire game without a single load time. All games from here on out should be that way no exceptions.

Hopefully GTAIV won't have load times.

[Lifendz]

think about how long that install time is? Are you serious? Okay, here's what you do to resolve that, my little fanboy. I get the game, pop it in, install, and then...watch TV :O! Or maybe....go outside! Or perhaps use the bathroom. Whatever I decide to do I can find something to do while the game installs. And then, once the install is done, I get to play a seamless DMC which is something you xbots can't do because of no standard hard drive. [email protected]

[KidMakeshift]

Uh, it's not like we're mindless drones blankly staring at our tv in anticipation of the install completion screen. I was simply stating that the PS3 takes a ridiculous time to install. It is a "game" console after all, right? The last thing a person wants to do when they get a new game is waiting a half hour for it to install or receive a patch. Sony needs to find a way to zip install components faster.

So Lifendz, why don't you go eat a d*ck and come back when you actually have something to say

[Texas GMR]

Cool. That's why MS should have put a hard drive into every 360.

[TheXgamerLive]

Who cares about that, it's no problem on the faster 360.

This isn't really a big think at all to me. I just hope the game is good but the more I see of it the less I think of it.

[spec_ops_comm]

LOL!

Sure, you wouldn't care about a 10 second load time once, but what happens if it occurs before every cutscene, level change, boss battle, etc..???

I have never met a gamer before who didn't care about load times. Next to poor gameplay itself, load times are one of the biggest gaming pet peeves of all time.

[TheXgamerLive]

I mean as long as there not as bad as the ones in the Harry Potter games, now those suck.

[Rikitatsu]

PSN Support ? Does that means DMC4 won't Support XBL ?

Anyway No Load times is great !!!

[toughNAME]

every 360 game supports LIVE

[TANOD]

Many ps3 games have 0 load times ---that includes UNCHRATED too ---THE BEST LOOKING GAME OF ALL TIME (till date)

[Kleptic]

yeah 360 games have to support live in some ways as part of a licensing agreement...

that doesn't mean it will have online play or anything...just that achievements and stuff have to be loaded into XBL as far as I know...

the article is sort of misleading...does this mean the PSN will support additional DLC or something?...and XBL won't?...thats hardly exclusive content if it just means it load rewards into Home or whatever...it has to support achievements in order to be on the 360...so whatever...the HDD thing is cool though...suprising though that they don't incorporate that option on the 360 also...if the 360 owner has an HDD, then install...if you were are one of the chumps that uses those overpriced memory packs...get a new hobby...

[KrazyKoala]

CRYSIS is the best looking game. Uncharted looks great but don't forget PC games pwn everything else graphically.

[Blademask]

It will be interesting to see of the PS3 version REALLY has the option to utilize the HDD. Unreal already has this option. There are still loading times though, so not sure what the point of that was.

I think this one is still a rumor, unless anyone has scanned famitsu? I think this is the same RUMOR from the NEOGAF forums... PSU is the same people that said GT5 had damage.

Take this one very lightly.

[unlimited]

Most of all PS3 games already taking advantage of the hard drive so why wouldn't this game would be any different.

[Kleptic]

the HDD install option on UT3 makes map loading marginally faster overall...but more importantly, for me at least, almost completely cures the texture loading problems that every console UE3 game has had so far (PCs didn't have it obviously, because of the HDD...this is the first PS3 UE3 based game to take advantage of it...Vegas didn't...and "popped" just as bad as Gears)...

[jackdoe]

Not a rumor. 1up got a near final build that allowed for installation. No load times after installation.

[ravinash]

So if you don't want to sit and wait for it to install then you can jump right in.
otherwise, a little wait will reward you with seamless playing.

[Spike47]

it's gonna happen. Capcom already apologized to ps3 fans for not supporting them that much so exclusive content on ps3 is definetly possible.

Still, this game is'nt my cup of tea, I'm gonna buy HAZE instead.

[eagle21]

PS3 has best version with no load times. GTAIV PS3 has this too right? I think so.

[actas123]

Man, I hope GTA IV won't have some size issues and long load times because its been developed for the 360 as well.. What the hick man, they should not have made GTA multi, xbox limitations (limited DVD size, no hard drive, slow... ) make games look bad and kill the potential in em.

[shrimpboat]

I have a 250 gig hardrive so 5 gigs is nothing.

[UltramanJ]

...are clearly two of the biggest closet Sony fans I've ever seen. Nobody could be that stupid and actually be serious. Thanks for the laughs guys.

[Meus Renaissance]

Although this is great that we have lesser load times, for those who do not have the biggest HDD 5GB is alot, especially when other games take so many GB's aswell. It's ridiculous. We'll have to upgrade our HDD's one day to actually play a game. People were upset with Heavenly Sword's need for 2GB, this is more than double that. As far as I know, games like Uncharted do not do this - so why can't it be the same for all?

[ThaGeNeCySt]

Not all developers use the same technique...

anyways, what's the maximum size HDD the PS3 can read?

[titntin]

Where's the beef dude? Use the feature, don't use the feature, its your choice!
Anyone with the remotest sense, will install the data and play without load times when they first get the game and are playing it a lot, and then uninstal the data when they are finished or have completed the game. If you've not much room, then play with loading times....

If you filling your machine with useless media - don't! Just share it over a media server like Tversity, or grab a cheap usb drive to keep media on if you must have it directly plugged in. I have almost every PSN game you can download, and a lot of blu ray games, but I've only used 35 gig.

[Raiyel]

I've got a Lacie Terabyte HD hooked up and it works like a charm. (1000gigs)

[ThaGeNeCySt]

1 TB? JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ

If you're able to change your HDD to those massive sizes then these game installs shouldn't be a problem 4 u

[monks]

@ThaGeNeCySt

i have seen a 750gb internal and LaCie 1.6TB Biggest F800 External USB

to date but in pricipal any 2.5", SATA internal should work

[shrimpboat]

I have a 250 gig Western Digital and a 500 usb drive for back ups and movies and stuff. Im gonna fill the 250 gig with downloadable games like Warhawk, and SOCOM Confrontation.

[SeanScythe]

I posted this same report yesterday and it failed because it had already been submited before! How the hell does this one pass?

[power of Green]

PS3 fanboys will post anything they think will make the PS3 look good many times if they think they can get away with it.

All you have to do is wait for certain times of the day theres always enough Sony fanboy losers working Swing and grave-yard

[Zhuk]

the fandroids control the content on this site, they censor at their will, just like how the Soviets use to control the news.

Luckily there are some of us who are fighting this menace to the best of our abilities by providing logical and objective thought on the site where it is lacking.

[Devr]

Haha wow, you guys can't be serious XD

To the OP... Tough luck dude. You can't really help it, some people just don't bother to check whether the story is a duplicate or not.

[Azures]

Zhuk, what a sad life you must lead to pretend to bring your own brand of hypocritical "justice" to a comment site full of jackasses. People have killed themselves for less, so feel free to stick a fork in the light socket.

[Ashta]

"Luckily there are some of us who are fighting this menace to the best of our abilities by providing logical and objective thought on the site where it is lacking."

I don't know which part was funnier really. The "logical and objective" part of the "fighting this menace" part.

You sir...oh you shall now be called "Tin Foil Hat Zhuk". You have serious issues or something to claim that this site is "PS3 favorable or run by Sony fanboys". I honestly cant see where you would come up with something like that. Isn't Bloodmask and Round Peg like the top contributors on this site? And isn't their news always drastically geared towards anti-sony and pro-360 news? Yeah, pretty sure it is.

Not to mention POG and IceWake always seem to pop in to fluff whatever 360 hard-on the contributor was sporting that day.

[power of Green]

Believe what you wan't I'v been a member of this site sence way back when the sites were split up.

(((Azures))) Sure rabid!, talk about sad! look who's so fanatical you personally attack members. lol Thats some twisted sh*t you speak of take a break. WoW

[Azures]

Its really not tough to tell people to go kill themselves. I want all the blindly biased BS to end, I don't care what side its on; but then people like zhuk and you would have alot less to do.

[Kleptic]

PoG...I don't care when you joined this site...the moment you defend someone like Zhuck...is the moment you are no longer needed...

Zhuck is a fecking robot...he is not real...you are allowed to personally attack robots, because they are not real...

Zhuck has never once made a single useful comment in his history at this site...he claims to be "logical"..and occasionally uses words larger than his processors clock speed...but he is the very definition of a troll...

you 360 fanboy retards differ from even the most fanatical Sony tards in one regard...you fecking defend each other...Bill Gates used to try to start flamewars with obviously stupid comments...and even Sony fanboys told him he was an idiot...yet TheMart, Zhuck, and IceWake come up with the stupidest comments of all time on a regular basis...and then you other 360 maniacs high-five them and proceed to tongue-dart their wrong ones...something is seriously screwed up with some of you...

[coolclimate0]

all the xbots are just behind our Iron curtain that zangeif was forced to put up

[Guwapo77]

I asked the same damn thing to TnS. I wrote a comment yesterday on your post and then I look this morning and it failed but turn right around and see the exact same thing posted and passed. I'm with you on this one...you royally got screwed over by fanboyism if you ask me.

[THUNDERMARE]

The best comment ever.

[THUNDERMARE]

The best comment ever.

[Zool 08]

You tell those stupid xbots, bubbles for you mate.

[ravinash]

providing logical and objective thought implies that you your providing a reasonable and balanced argument.
Reporter you aren’t!

[monkey602]

5 GB is way too much for me to spare

[shrimpboat]

Then don't do a install. it is optional

[Darkiewonder]

ps3 is in the form of a blu-ray disc featuring 60 minutes of "movie" content.

I'm going to bet they read this off neogaf. This is PSU. ;3

[Blademask]

..

[ThaGeNeCySt]

0 Load Time = great

EDIT: LOL @ DISAGREE

0 Load Time = bad?

[name]

Eh, I have an 80 gig. I own have saved files of cod4,uncharted,ratchet,motorst orm,heavenly sword, resistance, unreal tournament 3, warhawk,folklore, as well as about 5 or 6 ps2 games stored on the internal memory card. I also have alot of music and videos/pictures. I still have 63 gb of data left on my ps3.

[Blademask]

Oh wait, he is already here.

[name]

And this doesn't seem like exclusive content. It's just stuff they can only do on the Ps3. They can't do the harddrive thing for the 360 cause its not standard on there. The audio thing could possibly be due to the blu ray disc, and I dont know of any 360 games with psn support.

[Kleptic]

they easily could do it on the 360...its required caching that they can't do on the 360...if its an option for those 360 owners that do have an HDD...then why can't they do it?

I won't be suprised if news surfaces that this option will be available on the 360 also...

[Quickstrike]

5 GB down for this bad boy. Is it possible to add more GB for memory on the PS3? i have like 30 something GB left and its just gona dissapear next year when i start buying like 4 games a month.

[Guwapo77]

Don't complain about the 5gigs for this game when you have the option to upgrade. Sony made it very easy to replace your harddrive. If your not certain as to what to get, check out my link below.

http://www.newegg.com/Produ... -320gig 2.5 internal - $210.00

Ofcourse you can buy cheaper ones with less space. But for the price and storage space on this one...it can't be beat.

[4D Zangief]

The HDD partial install for a lot of PS3 titles. This makes up for the extremely slow load times of the 2X BD drive.

Sony droids praise this aspect but it is just a crutch for even more inadequacies of the crippled PS3 hardware.

[Devr]

Games like Uncharted and Haze have zero load times without having to be installed.

[Ashta]

blah blah blah! does crap continuously just fall out of your mouth or something? My BR drive loads and runs just fine and dandy if you ask me. Never had to wait all those long and exhuberent long times like many of you xbots like to claim.

But...really...do you even own a PS3? Are you privy to all of the inner workings of a product you actually own? or are you going to go by the biased second hand information that Planet Xbox gives you?

[Blademask]

Sorry

Owned again.

[novaIS350]

but..but..teh blu-ray is 2x.

It's ok bro, it's just a game console..it won't get you laid anytime soon, nor will it pay the bills. Grow up a little

[DJ]

That PS3's "slow-ass Blu-ray drive" is actually faster than the 360's DVD drive. He's really been talking crap about the 360 this entire time!

[shrimpboat]

Ok so why does the Xbox version also have load times. Explain that? The install feature is a awesome feature and you are just jealous. Who wants to look at load screens if you don't have to. Oblivion loaded a hell of alot faster on the PS3 version also so explain that. I guess 2x doesn't matter then.

[AliC]

Well you making me laugh with all your ill informed comments.

Grats Zangief 4D

[coolclimate0]

xbots prefer xbox, they dont even research anything! Go ahead zangeif and Google "ps3 hard drive vs xbox hard drive" and just for giggles hit im feeling lucky

[Guwapo77]

He has a point here. The XBox 360 has a 12x DVD player in it at 1x it transfers 1,350kb/s. PS3 has the 2x Blu-Ray player, it transfers at 72mbit/s.

Blu-ray speed never varies always 9MB/s

12x DVD player speed varies ranging from 9-16MB/s

But the slowest 12x DVD speed is Blu-Ray's constant.

The way Sony designed the PS3, the speed of the drive isn't really an issue at all thanks to the HDD. We all know HDD smokes all drives (at this time).
