Devil May Cry 4 (Review)

Jul 8, 2008

There is a reason we’ve given so much space to this Capcom stunner; something that previously seemed destined to arrive mangled during the trip from console to PC. Amazingly though, Devil May Cry 4 is a slick, PC-enhanced title, not a hastily shoe-horned mess. This means the game looks great, it’s graphically scaleable, you can use a keyboard to play it and, to top it off, it plays like the entire PC development team was briefed ...

Dec 7, 2007

Dec 7, 2007 In the years since Devil May Cry 4 was first revealed, we've seen a lot of Nero, the game's wet-behind-the-ears new hero, and a little of Dante, the series' old standby. We've even seen the two cross swords and trade gunfire in a battle that appears to take place right at the beginning of the game, with Dante as the clear (but strangely silent) aggressor. Recently, we got our best look yet at exactly what sets these two eerily similar heroes apart. You'll play as Nero for about 60 ...

The translation goes on to say... actually it's funnier verbatim: "Staff of demon sword teaching group, simply the ...

Devil May Cry 4 demo coming for Xbox 360, PS3 not certain (News)

Jul 12, 2007

IGN reports that Capcom announced that a Devil May Cry 4 demo will be released for Xbox 360 sometime before the game is releasing. The demo that is shown at E3 is completely the same that was shown for the first time in April, so no real new footage of Devil May Cry 4 is expected.

Capcom will be releasing an Xbox 360 demo sometime before the game releases. Capcom is also 'considering' a demo for the Playstation Network, but nothing is certain. A demo for PC is not mentioned. The demo will probably be the same as the E3 demo that is shown in Santa Monica.

More great news about Devil May Cry 4 as Capcom will be showing new levels of Devil May Cry 4 at the coming Game Convention or Tokyo Games Show events. The next demo will also be running on Xbox 360 hardware, in stead of the PS3 hardware where the first demo ran on. A releasedate for the demo or full version of Devil May Cry 4 haven't been given.

Devil May Cry 4 Delayed Until 2008 (News)

May 23, 2007

Bad news for Devil May Cry fans. The release date for Devil May Cry 4 has been pushed back into 2008. Signs that this might be the case arose on 1up's write up of Devil May Cry 4 - at the top of the page was the date 1/15/2008. Of course this was no confirmation, especially since Capcom have been providing playable demos to gaming websites and events alike. Yet these demos were on the game's original platform - the Playstation 3...

Confirmation comes from Eurogamer's time with Capcom:

"Surely the game must be out soon? Not so. Fans have a further nine months to wait until it finally emerges sometime in "Q1 2008", our Capcom rep regretfully informs us."

So there you have it Devil May Cry 4 won't be hitting store shelves until early 2008. The delay may well be because of the games new mulitplatform status, since Capcom also announced a simultaneous release on the PS3, Xbox360 and PC. Or it could be that Capcom are waiting for the PS3 user base to grow. Which ever reason, hopefully the wait will be appeased by Dant'es and Nero's slick moves.
