I'm not a fan of them either. They're like fossilized Skittles. Much prefer the analog stick though. Both pads have their quirks.

If so I'm in trouble...theres tons of em on my campus. :lol
Part of it has to do with me not using my right thumb for action/fighting games, but the reason I sat so long trying it out was because I figure it best to test it with my thumb, and while there is a slight difference as in the buttons are round on the 360 controller instead of flat faced like the ps2 controller, I don't feel its negligible enough to change gameplay for me.WHOAguitarninja said:

Fun fact. If you run Uncharted in a PS3 devkit, you can learn all sorts of fascinating stuff about the game.
Oh, and PS3 because of the controller & ability to play at work. Although I may rent the 360 version for the achievements.

What's next? Weighing the game boxes to see which one takes the least amount of effort to bring home?Dark FaZe said:

I agree to all except number 2. No one never bothers me in what games I want to buy. I do agree the PS3 boxes are soo much better imho.
Another reason for me is that I can play DMC1 and 3 if i wanted to without changing systems.

The $10 PS2->USB converters they sell at Radio Shack work perfectly.traveler said:

I'll wait for the demos to pass judgement of any kind of comparisons. I'm leaning more to the PS3 version so far. Not just because of the no load times (although that is a good bonus) but just the way the game is played. From DMC to DMC3. Been using a PS controller the whole time. Would feel kinda awkward on a 360 controller but there's always time to adapt. We are human after all. And I plan on importing a DS3 some time in Jan.

you have to download a driver to get the ps3 controller to work on PC.

My computer atm is quite craptacular. The new laptop I'm going to be purchasing will be around this level, though:
Intel® Core 2 Duo Processor T7700 / 4MB L2 Cache, 2.40GHz, 800MHz FSB
Nvidia GeForce 8800M GTX Graphics with 512MB DDR3 Video Memory
4GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz - 2 X 2048MB
Still debating whether to "upgrade" to Vista or stick with XP.

The engine Capcom uses for its next gen games builds the first 50% of the game on the PC, then that much is ported to the consoles, where the games are finished, if I understand the engine correctly.

not meaning to one up the guy who recommended it, but don't get a radioshack converter. spend the extra $2 the pelican converter. everyone who has one loves it, and the radioshack ones are hit or miss.

True, but also it's £15 to £20 quid cheaper on the PC. So that'll be my buy then.

PS2 controller would actually be a bit better because of R2/L2, but PS3 controller is easier to get it on your PC.
I bought DMC3SE for my laptop a while back to see how it holds up with the console version. It's an abomination. You lock-on with the space bar button and the face buttons are arranged on the IJKL buttons. Performing combos were literally impossible. Plus the game was a mess technically, it used 2D sprites in places where the console versions used full 3D models. It also has frame rate drops and screen tearing galore.CcrooK said:

It is incredibly shitty.
wouldn't let me map movement to the left analog stick on my PS2 controller > couldn't figure out how to get it full screen > low resolution > ported by the janitors at Capcom inc. > garbage can.
DMC3, Onimusha 3, RE4-- they all had shitty ports.

Hey, Christian Svenson over at the Capcom USA forums clarified some things (capcom-unity.com)
1) The install time for the PS3 is exactly just shy of 21 minutes. And yes, there is a recap of the DMC games with cutscenes and text. So it's not just a review build thing.
2) THERE IS NO Xbox 360 HDD install, however -- the game does cache data. So the load times are (naturally) faster than without it.
If caching on the 360 is faster than a PS3 HDD install when it comes to loading, well...I don't know. But it's been confirmed that DMC4 does utilize the 360 HDD, it just doesn't do a full install but people have said that MS won't let devs do that regardless.
Also, there is some new footage that shows Nero's Devil Trigger in motion.
There seems to be 6 difficulty settings. Mission select is obviously back, and you're ranked on mission clear time, stylish rank, and orbs attained.
It seems they eliminated requirements on ranking dependent on items used or not.
PS: He also (once again) mentioned that this time around, DMC4 PC will be done by the same internal team doing the console versions. It will not be outsourced like DMC3, RE4, Onimusha were.

The DMC3 PC port had problems with the audio that caused an unstable framerate. The port was so sloppy that I'm not even convinced that the screen tearing was directly related to the framerate.Dot50Cal said:
Most of the Capcom in house PC ports were rather decent, so I have higher hopes for DMC4.
