Who da eff cares. Thats a sweet potential collection edition.
Its been 8 years since DMC was created. I think we've gotten passed the obvious rips. Especially since this is promoting DMC FOUR and those guns have been in it since the beginning, regardless if Hellsing was published first.

No, this part stayed the same -- I never edited this part.
I'll be sure to post here when Capcom actually details what their putting in. With the thousands of DMC stuff that gets released in Japan, and not in the US -- one could only imagine
I only edited in the explanation of the joke -- dmc is to guns, as halo is to the helmet. You know -- as in, wouldn't be fuck awesome if they put in DMC's trademark like Bungie put in Halo's trademark?

But the problem was that you followed that; with:
Then..changed into:
...when everyone started replying thinking it was real..
You knew what to expect from GAF..
Alright. But it was still meant to be sarcastic, I didn't think people would expect life-sized, fully detailed, real looking dual .45's to be packaged in a video game in America. C'mon now guys, goddamn. If a pair of low poly titties gets everyone in a bunch...pistols that look real enough to 'suicide by police' obviously can't be on Capcoms to do list.
But anyway, I know you're reading this Capcom -- do you see the positive reaction? Yes, put Ebony and Ivory in the limited edition set, and make sure you have a lawyer or two who can handle jack thompson. And you'll be ace.

Like the guns were the only thing DMC ripped off Hellsing.

What would they play them on? If BC hadn't just been yanked out of PS3 it would have been a great idea for the PS3 LE. I'd have bought it and I've played 1-3 to death.

No, the PC version is a bit behind the console releases.
However, it'll likely look better in the same sense that Lost Planet pc is the best looking version.
Kadey said:
The Samurai Edge Standard is the _only_ non-real-world video game weapon in the images you posted. And even then, it is only a modified M92F.
For the record - Marui has never made a Halo replica. Nor have they ever made Ebony & Ivory. I have seen a custom shop Ebony & Ivory in a shop here in Osaka that was about 1800 USD for the set. Marui has made a large selection of RE guns, and recently announced two new RE models.

Capcom wasn't involved in those.
Although, they are playable (after a few patches) I still don't understand the benefit of a DMC3 PC port. Everyone and their mom had PS2's.
McDragon said:
exactly.
C- Warrior said:
except that they allowed them to happen.
I picked up DMC3 on the cheap, just to try it out, hoping I could consolidate a little more on my PC. even after patches, I couldn't get movement to map to the left analog stick :lol people were saying it was fussy about pads, but even my PS2 pad didn't work. on top of that, I couldn't get it to run in full widescreen. it would only run windowed at 800x600.
but since Capcom is building this on their new engine, it'll be fine.

Helling stole the Color red from Sesame Street.
Hellsing stole guns and crosses from Jesus.
Hellsing stole coats from John V. Coatman the 4th
Hellsing stole Churches from the pope.
Hellsing stole the idea of having hair from horses.
Hellsing went into the future and stole the idea to have alot of dark ares from Doom 3.
I can play too.

You don't have a ps2?
the one good thing about the halo ce debacle is that i no longer feel compelled to buy useless collectors' editions. fuck 'making of' documentaries and unwieldy tin cases. i just want the game. and double fuck trinkets -- i've got this stupid big daddy figurine sitting around, and i don't even like bioshock

God damn I almost crapped in my pants when I saw Ebony and Ivory. I would pay big money to have those. Not as part of the Collector's Edition, just to have them in general. But I'm looking forward to seeing the contents of this. Can't wait for the XBL demo of DCM4. Has to be coming sometime soon. Capcom said 2007, so...Bring it!

It certainly didn't sound like it, but I was actually trying to defend DMC (which I played before seeing Hellsing). My point was that DMC was pretty much Hellsing: the Game + Sword which is undoubtedly a very good thing.
C- Warrior said:
It can't be that far away, though. If they wait too long, the PC port of DMC4 may basically run the same risk of what happened to the Lost Planet PC port: it'll become of little consequence, because the people who really stood to want the game would have bought it by then. If Capcom wants to avoid that type of thing again, they won't have it so that the PC version takes more than a month to be released.
My guess is, because DMC4's been delayed a number of times now, the PC port will be released in due time after the original console releases, and it's just cheaper for the sake of trying to make it a bit more attractive. After all, you do still have to have a half-way decent PC to probably be able to run this game smoothly, and that will probably up the costs right there...

having a red coat and big guns =! Hellsing: the game at all. Dante slightly resembles Alucard, that's about as far as the relation goes. No story similarities, no themes, no Seras Victoria, no Integra, no vampires, no undead nazi armies, no catholic vs. protestant warfare, nothing!
...damn, they really oughta make a good Hellsing game :lol

The aesthetics of the two were very similar but it was the OTT action that really drilled it home. I guess it would have been fairer to say DMC is the best example of anime style action in a game and Hellsing is an excellent (and easy) reference point, at least I can't think of a better one.

It's placeholder. And it's been set on Jan 1st. 08 for quite some time now.
The collector edition pages however were just recently added a few days ago. I also have a few friends who work over gamestop and have said that they are taking pre-orders for it. (he himself put himself down for a pre-order for the collector's edition).
