Playing with a gamepad is -highly- recommended.

The demo comes with a benchmark, naturally. My bitch ass PC better get me an S rank. :lol

A timed (which isn't an aspect of the game, fear not) run through of parts of mission 2 with an option to fight Berial. The 2nd boss in the actual game.

120 fps, high resolution, LDK mode, blah blah blah, bunch of extra stuff.

LDK mode *on* is where the enemies go ape-shit crazy and you're flooded with them (as seen in the screens below). I don't know if the demo is going to have an LDK mode on or off function. If not, then the enemy count will be analogous to the console versions.

Downloading now, thanks for posting. I prefer playing on my PS3, however I wouldn't mind having it on the go with my notebook.

Nikorasu · Jun 5, 2008

Sort of want, but not enough to make me want to bother with a GS account or any ridiculous proprietary download manager.

I'll wait until filefront or shack has it. :|

Regardless, that last pic is mindblowing.

outsida · Jun 5, 2008

Downloading now thanks...

C- Warrior · Jun 5, 2008

For gamespot.com you have to make an account (it's free), but if anyone knows of another place that doesn't for download let me know and I'll update the OP.

LaneDS · Jun 5, 2008

Thanks for the heads up. Downloading just to see how it looks and runs, I don't have a snazzy gamepad for my PC so I'd most likely play it on consoles some rainy day years from now.

rollingstart · Jun 5, 2008

So, this says its gonna take 27 hours to finish...Is there a faster site this is uploaded to?

*shrug* I didn't either. I figured I'd give it a shot and try to be special.

I think gamespot has a deal with Capcom. Not sure.

fistfulofmetal · Jun 5, 2008

Sad for me that I could never get my PC to see my fucking PS3 controller.

You have to have the browser window that you download it from open and then click connect. Or after its in stalled go back to the download page and click on the download now button. Yes its very stupid.

BigBlackGamer · Jun 5, 2008

downloading now.

SlaughterX · Jun 5, 2008

yeah I ifgured that out, downloading at a good 250k, compared to the 15k I was getting downloading it with out the manager...

aznpxdd · Jun 5, 2008

Anywhere else to download the demo? I'm not signing up at GS just to download it.

Teknopathetic · Jun 5, 2008

First things first: For anyone questioning it, none of the previous DMC4 PC screenshots were bullshots. The game is *really* that clean.

1920x1200, Everything on Super High and no AA I get Rank A, I suspect because two of the tests have average FPS in the mid 50s.

SlaughterX · Jun 5, 2008

Wow it's taking forever to install these things, slowing my whole computer down to a crawl... I think I might let it get some rest for the night after this...

bigswords · Jun 5, 2008

50 fps is low performance? Werid... probably you can drop the AF (Anisotropic Filtering) Teknopathetic, that might help the score.

Teknopathetic · Jun 5, 2008

Eh, I'm content. If you start lowering settings just to get a specific score/rank on a benchmark, you've sorta missed the point.

Whatever rocks your boat. But having dips in framerate does get irritating. Plus turning down AF you won't see that much for a image quality drop.

Teknopathetic · Jun 5, 2008

"Whatever rocks your boat. But having dips in framerate does get irritating. Plus turning down AF you won't see that much for a image quality drop."

We're not talking random dips into the 20s or 30s or anything like that. It occasionally dropped down to low 50s for a period of time. The framerate dips exist but are largely unnoticeable because it's all hovering around the area where framerate changes aren't that big a deal.

Plus, I don't recall seeing an AF option.

You mean didn't know you could be the riddler cause all I see is ???? :lol.
Any recommended specs?

Morbid Angel · Jun 5, 2008

Super high, No Vsync/AA

I loved DMC/DMC 3 and this is a great port. Day one!

SlaughterX · Jun 5, 2008

Well I just did the benchmark, for some reason it wouldn't let me take a screen cap, I jsut got a black screen.

Anyway my comp was given a B rank, I ran everything on Super High with x2 MSAA and vsync at 1680x1050, in DX10. I have a 2.4GHz Quad Core 2 Duo, 2 8800 GTs, and 2GBs of 800MHz DDR2 RAM.

Mind taking just one screenshot without the AA? Just wanna see how it looks like.

And that's some sick resolution. What are you playing on, a widescreen CRT monitor?

Clevinger · Jun 5, 2008

My PC isn't very good, yet the game runs well and looks gorgeous. Day 1.

Haunted · Jun 5, 2008

What happened to our gamespot boycott?

Gerstmann is crying.

*waits for a download mirror not on gamespot*

SlaughterX · Jun 5, 2008

Yeah, every time I take a screen all I get is black, anyone have any idea why? Also turning up MSAA to 4x didn't appear to have any effect on the frame rate, wonder how high I can go before it takes a dip....

Ohh yeah, and there is no need to isntallb otht he game and the benchmark, I think the game has the benchmark built into it. Install the game first tos ee for yourself, I have them both installed so that could be why.

Nuclear Muffin · Jun 5, 2008

Weird, I can't make the resolution higher than 1360 x 768 (My monitor is 1680 x 1050 and my GPU is an 8800GT)

Is there anything I need to do to make the resolution appear?

Also I have a dual monitor set up, with the secondary screen running at 1280 x 1024.

EDIT: I am running it in DirectX 10 on Windows Vista Home Premium...

Ahhh

, you are using a 24 inch widescreen LCD?

Aeana · Jun 5, 2008

I didn't sit through the whole benchmark (boooring), but I played the 10 minute demo thing and it seems to run 50-60 FPS on my crappy computer (P4 3GHz, 1GB RAM, 6800GS) on low (~30 on high with shadows off), which surprised the heck out of me. I guess I'll be buying it, in that case.

I was just about to post that. That's where I've decided to grab mine from.

Sanjay · Jun 5, 2008

Thanks Ikuu, my gamespot speed was at 10k, now at full speed 240k

Teknopathetic, for real no AA? looks so clean like it has 4AA on

Ledsen · Jun 5, 2008

Sweet, 800 kb/s at the nvidia link

Acosta · Jun 5, 2008

Have the PS3 version but I'm going to try it, if the conversion for PC is really good DMC 4 may be the last Capcom console game I buy this gen. The screenshots look amazing.

imek · Jun 5, 2008

Thanks for the Nvidia link, got ~2MBs off there

Now to test what the lowest end gpu can do... (6600GT paired with an E8400).

Acosta · Jun 5, 2008

Double post. Sorry-

Oldschoolgamer · Jun 5, 2008

Yay. Time to see what rank I get.

Gaogaogao · Jun 5, 2008

nevermind, nvidia ftw http://jp.slizone.com/object/devilmaycry_jp.html

evanswolves · Jun 5, 2008

1680x1050, everything on superhigh, vsync and 4msaa

Wat. Bullshots don't exist in PC gaming. :|

legend166 · Jun 5, 2008

I'm gonna download this, even though I don't have a gamepad.

Is it unplayable with KB + M? It'll be good to see how it runs on my machine anyway.

Zedsdeadbaby · Jun 5, 2008

1.3GB, blimey. At least it will give my PC a workout

I have a wired 360 pad so it should be good to go.

Peronthious · Jun 5, 2008

Heh, worth checking out if only too see how much this kills my PC.

Ledsen · Jun 5, 2008

Wow, with low settings it never goes below 30 fps on my 2+ year old laptop with

Core 1 Duo 1.83 Ghz
Radeon X1600
2 GB RAM

And it still looks awesome!

jett · Jun 5, 2008

I wonder if you can set the PC port to have the same lighting/shadowing/shading quality of cut-scenes during gameplay.

Such a a jarring difference between the two on consoles.
