The demo is also on the japanese PSN

TehRadge5973d ago

Is the PSN version in English?

power of Green 5973d ago

Played it... The fire demon killed me in the snow level and I ran out of time in the city level. It got some cool Japanse style to it.

Genuine5973d ago (Edited 5973d ago )

The graphics are above average, and I can definately see that the gameplay will grow into nice mix of moves. The camera is a b*tch and movement feels like your floating (instead of actually taking steps), but those are the only glaring flaws that I noticed. If this game has multi-player or a decent 15 hour single-player, I'll probably pick it up. If I were to score this game just from the demo, it would be in the 8's.

mighty_douche5973d ago

Some one let us know what its like please!?

mesh15973d ago

PLAY BEYOND HAHAHAHAHAHHA downloading the demo as we speak

mighty_douche5973d ago

so will i be when i pop home on my lunch break.

whats your point?

Sayai jin5973d ago

@mesh1- what's your XBL gamertag. How is the demo?

rushbd5973d ago

but he couldnt. He's a free user. is this normal ?

mighty_douche5973d ago

well if he has a Silver account he may have to wait a week or so, as Gold members (paid) now get "timed exclusive" on XBL downloads.

It should say in the info that its only available for gold accounts if thats the case.

predator5973d ago

post your thoughts on the game as some unlucky buggers (me included) are in work...Thanks

power of Green 5973d ago (Edited 5973d ago )

Looks great and has over the top drama...nice flashy moves...has cool but sometimes confused camera AI...Stupid ass enemy AI *there to show what D can do rather than challenge you*... fun moves...oldschool JRPG camera angles mixed with all kinds of agles we know and love today...slightly corny dialoge and over the top voice acting sometimes.

Great for a change a must buy for collectors and a rent for more picky gamers.

NG2 and Too Human will be better.

Korosuke5973d ago

You can play two game mode.
one is normal stage with 10min time limited and the other is boss battle stage.
If you like this series, you may be enjoy this demo. :)

I played PS3 version but I think same to xbox360 version, anyway.

predator5973d ago

cheesr guys for the thoughts, will download of Live when i get back and pass my own thoughts down.

Thanks again to you both

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.

VersusDMC42d 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.

Exvalos42d ago

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

Cacabunga42d 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

Friendlygamer42d 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

monkey60242d ago (Edited 42d 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_Suzumiya42d ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde42d 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

SeTTriP42d 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.

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.

Aaroncls7120d ago

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.

Sephiroushin119d ago (Edited 119d ago )

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 - 15 Years of Nero

Devil May Cry 4 launched 15 years ago today, bringing with it new character Nero. Has it stood the test of time?

Knushwood Butt479d ago

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.

chrisx479d ago

In DMC 5, it's 4 times you encounter the same bosses if you count the Vergil dlc lol

Knushwood Butt478d ago

Yeah, I'm only up to chapter 19 so the total count can only go up!

kevco33479d ago

No troll, I always preferred DMC.

No haters, please.

Knushwood Butt478d ago

I'm actually with you there, but DMC has that terrible writing. Alex Garland isn't it?

FallenAngel1984479d ago

Nero will always stand the rest of time against Donte and Viola
