I think we'll at least hear about it before then (probably within a month), Gregaman said we won't be hearing details for a little while..

I'd say play them in release order (2 is totally skippable, though) and just play on the standard mode to start with, in each game. (Easy mode is not recommended, and you can't start on anything harder than normal without cheats anyway.)
Play DMC1, then DMC3.
There aren't any other starting difficulties. Play on Normal in both and have fun!

Also play DMC3 in gold orb mode if you're just a beginner.
Yeah. I was hoping that we'd at least get a bit on something like Dragon's Dogma Online, for all that KobaP talked about making announcements that would "turn heads in the West".
Ah, well. Hype Train gets a chance to stop and refuel for a while.

Even as a longtime DMC player, I see no reason to revert back to the yellow orb mode.

Literally no benefit to Yellow, whether you're casual or hardcore.

Normal difficulty (aka highest default difficulty) for all of them
Play 1 then 3.
...That's all =3
I just abhor the resurrection mechanic of Gold orb. Granted, you're not supposed to use items in DMC, but this makes the experience way too easy for new players.
Gotta say, it's so convenient playing DMC3 via PCSX2.
The save state feature is so damn helpful, since you can save literally at any time. So instead of reloading the entire level to tackle a section of enemies or whatever to combo practice etc. you can be right back within a second.

Playing DMC2 lets you appreciate better games so much more, and gives not so good games a chance to be fun because at least they are not DMC2
I haven't looked into PS2 emulation. Is it relatively easy?
I had a feeling that would be the case. They'll focus on DmC: DE first (maybe with some trickle of information on DMC4) then when that has been released they'll start pushing DMC4: SE.
Extremely.

PS2 emulation is pretty simple! I had to use a SVN build for DMC3 though since it desyncs in cutscenes in the latest official release which doesn't help with my nostalgia play-through.

Kobayashi states that the new games will be both announced and released in 2015.

Good to know. Any suggested resources? I imagine I'd just boot something up while the PS2 disc is in the tray?
He could mean "announced" and "released in 2015" rather than "announced and released in 2015". But I do really think that Capcom has more titles to show soon in general.
Just do a quick google search, tutorials are available on youtube as well if you are having issues. I'd link something but the ones I found mention emulation sites and what not.
Generally speaking:
- Get emu
- Get PS2 bios (can dump your own or find it online) and set it
- Set up controller
- Run game
You can also mess with the graphical settings to tweak things to your liking.
And you are probably better off playing from an iso, much quicker and much more convenient (from starting the emu to actually playing the game takes like literally 5 seconds, save states let you by pass PS2 start up stuff). Since you already have the game you can make your own iso or just find one online.

question: When playing DMC4 pc, I get a prompt on steam to either play it, or load it in Direct X10. Should I do Direct X10, or just keep doing what I'm doing? Is there a difference?
That "both announced and release in 2015" confuses me a bit :
Surely he's working on RE7 and whatever-D'sD-game-will-be i guess.
The difference is that playing it normally will make it work and playing it in DirectX10 will make it not work.

haha i was concerned it was something like that, which is why i wanted to ask before trying it. thanks
*Has never had issues with DMC4 DX10*
It crashes every time I even try running it in DX10, and from what I've heard, I'm not the only one who experiences this.
Yeah. It crashes for me, too, actually. I never looked into why since DX9 works just fine for me.
Windows 7, 64-bit.

Yeah I played through 4 completely in DX10 mode a few days before this was announced and I had no problems with it.

well at the very least, DirectX 10 doesn't do anything better for the game I assume?

I think it's just lighting effects and such. Incidentally putting the lighting on very high introduces color banding though so I keep it to high.
Yeah, if anything it does more to back up how things like Sengoku BASARA 4's expansion (or even SB5?) is likely going to be announced at the Matsuri event in February and then released later on in 2015 to be in time for BASARA's 10th anniversary celebration.
To me, the more interesting thing is seeing if the likes of Dragon's Dogma Online will fit into possible plans for 2015.
Speaking of Vergil 3. It's a great fight, but design-wise I felt it has been surpassed. I hope he's a boss in DMC4SE so we can have him back as the GOAT character action boss.
It sounds like "among the games that will be announced in 2015, several will be released the same year".
DMC5, Dino Crisis 4 and Capcom All-Stars Kart Racing, let's go!

By whom? Keep in mind that I haven't played Bayo 2 yet, so please no spoilers.
It's not Bayo 2.
Nanomachines, son?

DMC1 is amazing. Great all round package. Excellent enemy design, great bosses, great atmosphere, meaty combat system, great attention to detail outside of combat, story is whatever.
By Credo and maybe Jeanne's final fight. Vergil 3 is still more difficult, though. I don't think it's been surpassed in all areas, though. One thing that Vergil 3 and the Vergil fights do better in general is how Vergil mirrors Dante's actions and reacts accordingly.
Not saying anything about Bayo 2 and W101, as I haven't played the latter.

Don't listen to this. DMC1 has the old resi style to it(more atmosphere/puzzles) before the crazy combos came in. Skipping this would be a big mistake.
Will have to disagree, Credo's is good but isn't nearly as epic as the showdown with Vergil.
Jeanne's looks good visually but gameplay-wise pales in comparison and includes QTEs.
Neither of these are Nanomachines, son.

Gold orbs are expensive and aren't really plentiful, I doubt it'll help new players that much considering the learning curve the game has.
I just found the yellow orbs lives approach to be very frustrating as a new player (especially running into a end level boss), and just utterly redundant as an experienced player. Does nothing but add cheap artificial difficulty to the game
The senator fight was fun but it didn't beat Vergil :V
Obviously by Vorkken
These two fights were pretty baller though
The Credo fight was rad, but it didn't surpass Vergil in terms of "oh shit it's going down".
Jeanne was fun to fight against, but nothing really...happened.
