Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition |OT| Two girls, one motivated Vergil

Danny Dudekisser

I paid good money for this Dynex!
So wait... there's music that's only in the JP/Asia release that's not in the US one?

Might have to buy the JP version on PS4 if that's the case.

So DMC has 3 different universe in a way?


DMC 1 by Kamiya ( I think Dante in Viewtiful Joe is canon too right?)

DmC by Ninja THeory

then DMC 1 branches of to 2,3,4 under Itsuno since he took over after Kamiya.

Always wonder how the DMC games will change if Kamiya was still in charge.
 
Do you have to finish the game using Nero/Dante before you can do the Vergil & Lady/Trish playthroughs?


Nope, they're all selectable from the beginning, along with Legendary Dark Knight mode.

Yeah, was the same for the original JP releases of the game as well. The JP/Asian versions are cheap, are in full english, and let you use the downloaded DLC no matter what region your account is. No reason not to get the PS4 physical release if you're planning on getting the PS4 version.

thanks for answering...now I have to decide who I'll go with at first

Pretty sure 1-4 are all in the same universe, although I would imagine that Capcom would rather ignore DMC2 in the future.

Dunno if Viewtiful Joe and SMT3 are part of the canon or not.

Is DMC4 available for pre-load on PS4 yet? I've had the Lady and Trish costume pack on "waiting to install" in my download queue for days now, and I have no clue what that means.

I hope Viewtiful Joe Dante is canon. Dante walking around in tight black briefs, watches movies only wearing that.

It's canon as far as the crossover/extended universe is concerned, at least. Dante and Viewtiful Joe greet each other in their intros for UMvC3, for example.
 
I was hard pressed to get the physical version since I love the series so much, but I had to save money and you can't beat 25 bucks, that's a huge value for the content. I also want to support the US release if that means anything towards DMC 5.

I know the mainline DMC is in the same universe. I mean it like this.


Kamiya version is only 2 games, which is DMC1 and VJ (sort of)


Itsuno version of the game is 2.3,4 but those are his on canon.

I would really love to seem Kamiya continue his own canon of DMC and not work it off/continue Itsuno's version of DMC.

I don't know, but the use of that taunt just shot Vergil's swag factor way higher up than it was already.

I found it at /cuhrayzee general/ and people just told me to git gud so here I am! Looking for a source that will probably never exist.
Seriously that taunt is insane.

Hum... I wasn't aware of that piece of exclusive content. Does someone mind pointing out where I can listen to those songs? I'm probably going with the digital version, but I'm curious about what I would be missing out on.
 
I wasn't keeping track of this game at all so it was nice to see it come out of nowhere (for me). I've played 1-4 and 4 is already my favorite of the series, so it's awesome to see it improved even more.

After debating whether to get it for PC or PS4 I broke down and got it for PS4 since they seem nearly identical and literally the only game I have for PS4 is Bloodborne. Since it's only $25 I'll just buy it again for PC once I have a video card and monitor that can handle 120+ fps.
 
Quick question- do remasters and definitive editions get their own reviews as well? ie. do I have to brace myself for DMC4SE's reviews?
 
This is honestly the next Next week...in game magazines..

he definitely is, look at that list lol
"yeah obviously i wanna make all these games people ask for me non-fucking-stop definitely dude especially that sparda guy"

I don't think he's straight-up trolling. I'm pretty sure he'd genuinely like to do Viewtiful Joe 3, and maybe also an Okami sequel or another Devil May Cry (since he seems to have gone back and forth over whether he wants to work with those franchises again). It's not likely that those things will happen, but then, it didn't seem likely that Platinum would ever work on Star Fox back when Kamiya tweeted about it back in 2010.

Kamiya had a lot of ideas for how he would continue and expand the DMC universe that never came to fruition because he got pulled off the series. I doubt Dante's game in Viewtiful Joe was ever truly considered canon to DMC1, but it at least shows a little of what Kamiya probably would have tried to work into future DMC games if he had kept making them. Weirdly, the Bayonetta artbook actually has a reference to Dante's VJ story in it, and Kamiya has said that in his mind, Bayonetta and Devil May Cry (1) take place in the same world, so you could include Bayonetta in that "canon" as well, I guess.

I've heard that the orignal game had a lot of backtracking with Dante, does the SE version make the Dante, Trish and Lady parts optional?

No, you're still going to backtrack.

Lol Vergil has a face palm taunt..

Someone needs to gif an up close shot of that taunt.

Sorry if this has been asked but will we be able to pre-load this on PS4?

It's been asked a lot, but I don't think anyone knows. I believe GregaMan mentioned that it would be available for pre-load, but I'm not positive.
