If this game goes back to the DMC1 style of pacing with all of the cool shit added in DMC3, I'll be pretty ****in' hyped. Otherwise, I'll only be normally hyped. Either way, bring it on, Blim.

Itagaki had also said in an older interview that the game he'd work on after DOAX2 would be Ninja Gaiden 2.

He never says things directly, you just have to puzzle a bit with his hints

It IS going back to DMC1 and DMC3. The cheese from DMC3 will be lowered and the art style amped up with better enemies/bosses like DMC1 and of course all the crazy shit from DMC3 now with REALTIME STYLE SWITCH (I said WOW!) all in one package. And of course multiple playable characters confirmed. This is going to be one WILD RIDE!

Also can XSamu be banned from all DMC4 threads from this point on? Like seriously he has nothing positive to contribute here...

That's great. I really dug the creepier Castlevania feel of the original best...but I think I already had this discussion with C- Warrior six months ago.

DO NOT REMOVE THE CHEESE CAPCOM. PLEASE DON'T DO IT.

Forgive them for They know not what they do.

DMC4 better have 4 times the cheese and it better have the same pacing as DMC3. I don't want to solve your broken ass puzzles Capcom.

Ignore this quoted post, Capcom. Well, design better puzzles, anyway.

Cheese will still remain but the story will be taken a lot seriously. Of course you will still have Nero free riding enemies and drop kicking Dante in the face plus more shenanigans as well as some standard Dante one-liners.

What you will not have are the WOO-HOOS and 1 minute long missile surfings.

Real-time style switch? That's going to be ****ing intense.

**** yea, I was surprised as anyone else when I heard that from Famitsu. I don't know how Capcom will pull it off but my hype for this game has really increased from that snippet of info.

Agree,XSamu if you have nothing to talk about DMC4 then just gtfo.

Devil trigger button is gone so the L1 button is replaced for real time switching?

The Cheese is dead. Long live the Cheese. Newton can rest in peace, Dante will no longer make a mockery of his life's work.



About the video, it was okay. Image quality is astounding, but it's all areas we've already seen, and the game more or less looks on par with Lost Planet graphically. Very clean, very well textured, nice art, but nothing mind blowing.

I hope when you play as dante you Do have devil trigger, that would be awesome, devil arm with nero and trigger with dante FTMFW

What about using motorcycles as weapons? Will we have that?
Well Nero's sword operates exactly like a motorcycle and you can ride on enemies with it as well as other stuff. I guess Dante could have his own motorcycle as well.

Um... that is pre-TGS footage. Even the HUD is very old...

DT isn't gone, especially not for Dante who is confirmed to be playable. In fact no one really knows what L1 does but for Nero its assumed to be an Accelerator function.

Not to get into the old East vs. West debate, but generally speaking, by the time most japanese devs show playable builds of their titles they're more or less graphically feature complete. I don't expect there'll be much improvement at all, like there wasn't for Lost Planet, Blue Dragon, RR6, RR7, and pretty much any game that fits the profile.

It's funny that I beat DMC3 again the other day and I was thinking "damn it would be nice to be able to mix trickster with royal guard for the ultimate defense maneuvers." Real-time style switching along with real-time gun switching is just bad ass. They'll probably limit it to two styles like with the guns and swords, but that's good enough.

DMC4 going multiplatform was a hard blow, but the game itself will still be awesome. Can't wait.

Why would you ever say this? You can still play the game, it's still being developed by the same team. It's going to be ****ing awesome. DMC4 going multiplataform couldn't possibly be considered a blow to anyone but Sony....






And Ninja Gaiden 2 LOL
 
Defuser said:
You know DMC4 is multi now,i still hope Capcom add something exclusive in the PS3 version out of respect for Sony....

...Respect?

Uh... I'm not sure I follow.

In fact, if we're going by Capcom standards (like they did with RE4), the X360 version might have more content. :lol

I doubt any version is going to getting anything completely exclusive especially with the 360 and PS3 versions coming same day. We aren't talking about a 6-8 month wait here... At best you can expect something different in PS3 version and something equivalently different on the 360 version.

Well, good, less ammo on either side of the fanboy wars.

I wonder how the X360 version controls will feel...
There is still plenty of fanboy ammo to go around...

*I will play the version with rumble, achievements and Live functionality.

*I will play the version that is integrated with Home and have 3D trophies.

*I will play DMC on the console/control its meant to be played.

I make one comment on another game and I say I don't like Dante and I'm already banmaterial? lol

Just saw those video's Blim hosted. It does look quite good, but the faces of the characters could've been much better. I'd love to fight Dante while playing with Nero though. Could be a cool fight.

And where did this game fit in the timeline again?

We all know the reason the PS2 version got more content

Official timeline:

DMC3 > DMC1 > DMC4 >>>>>>>>> DMC2

DMC2 takes place at an unconfirmed time and place after DMC4. DMC3 is the first game in the series time wise, DMC1 taking place about 10-15 years afterwards and DMC4 taking place about 10 years after that (maybe less, maybe more). DMC2 in reality has no story potency to the DMC universe and is generally skipped because of its generally assiness but DMC3/DMC1 are required playthroughs to understand DMC4.

This game doesn't look that impressive to me. I mean, the graphics animation have nothing on Lair or Heavenly Sword, and the gameplay looks pretty cut and paste EXACTLY the same. Throw in some vehicles or something.

It shows some new screens of some new moves, and a flaming sword of some sort. The screen in the lower left hand corner looks incredible.
