Hiroyuki Kobayashi, having worked on titles including the original Devil May Cry and Resident Evil 4, was at E3 this year to talk about his newest project, Devil May Cry 4. Gamespy sat down with him and got the lowdown on the new gameplay, why DMC4 is multiplatform, and the truth about developing for the PS3.

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."
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

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
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.
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.
It's great to hear the game is coming along so well. And yet another developer/publisher says that the PS3 and 360 have the same horse power, it's becoming the trend I guess. I guess that's a hint that both games will be identical.
I'm still upset that there's no Vergil cameo to kinda, at least, get my hopes up that he didn't die at the end of DMC3. He deserves his own game imo. I'm still not digging Nero for some reason but at least you still get to play Dante so that's a plus. Can't wait to add this to my PS3 library.
The whole thing can be summarized with this quote:
GameSpy: Is there any validity to the PS3/360 performance comparisons?
Kobayashi: I believe that the PS3 and the 360 are about the same level, they have the same specs. Leaving aside personal thoughts about each machine, I won't say that the PS3 or the 360 is above the other…It's about development, it's about the thing.
"it's all about meeting a minimum baseline".....WTF????
he's practically admitting that both consoles are getting a baseline PC port.
I think I'll pass on this one.
To many big titles coming to both consoles to pick this one up this year.
PS3:
HS
UT3
Drake
Xbox 360:
Halo 3
Mass Effect
Bio Shock
Thats not even the multi games like madden 08 and GTA IV.
Too much money but ill get it next year.
