Outside of the visuals, this game could have been done on last gen hardware.Rhazer Fusion said:

Excellent news, this game deserves it.
I am surprised at how many didn't know you can deflect the ball of energy back at the knights. There are a ton of things Nero can buster back at enemies and bosses.

I didn't touch the can man. All I'm saying is that saying "oh this game could be done last gen besides the graphics" is silly and also a sad attempt at trying to downplay a game.
You can say that for almost any game.

When there is the 'leader knight' -- he;ll snap his fingers and get the lesser knights in attack position, and they'll charge up a huge blue energy ball.
Simply reflect that energy ball back at them for an immediat insta-kill SSS rank.
A lvl 1 charged shot timed relatively well (it's not that hard) is the easiest method.
Then a exceed level 2 streak (what you saw on the gif.) would work, although again, it's a lot easier to press and hold X (or square - ps3) for a second or two and release.
It's amazing that more companies aren't catching on to this whole "post-Christmas" release window that Capcom quickly seems to be monopolizing. They seem to single-handedly be dispelling the myth that you can only sell well after Thanksgiving.
Also, it will be interesting to see if more Japanese developers start to take note of the benefit to bottom line that multi-platform is obviously delivering here.
Capcom just keeps rolling out the hits...it can't go unnoticed forever.

Sweet Jesus. I did not expect these numbers this soon. My goodness. DMC5 better get the time and attention it rightfully deserves.

Not entirely, although all the releases have been relatively close together. DMC4 however did the best job on a near simultaneous release, 1/31, 2/5 and 2/8.

You know what? There's nothing wrong with that. We don't NEED every single game to innovate. The technology in this case has simply allowed for a more polished DMC experience.bluheim said:
It's the same with the Wii. I strongly believe that motion controls should not be used in every game. It simply isn't necessary. Even huge titles like Smash Brothers Brawl really don't need it (and I don't believe it requires it either, as you can use the GC controller).
With DMC4, Capcom clearly decided to make the most polished "classic" DMC game they could.
Environments repetitive? There are so many unique areas you get to visit in the game. Sure, you end up returning to them at various points, but I don't see why that would be a real issue. Repetitive environments would be something like those in FEAR where you basically spend the entire game moving through corridors and rooms that look very much the same.

That's the only place in the game where I've been able to get an SSS move. Its almost as if its programmed that way.

So much for RE5 changing platforms eh? Congrats for Capcom validating their multiplatform strategy.

The shadows are poor, yes, but you have to consider what is being rendered. You have fairly complex environments, high quality HDR lighting and tone mapping, fully dynamic shadows on all scenery and characters, and a framerate of 60 fps (with very minor drops here and there, not terrible slowdown).
Shadows are demanding and it's pretty clear that they would have been unable to render the game at 60 fps with high quality shadows enabled during that scene. Despite their resolution, it still manages to create a nice atmosphere. Without those shadows, the scene would look much less impressive and feel rather dull.
