Devil May Cry Trademark Pops up announcement

The positive thing to come from this is that Capcom hasn't forgotten about the brand and wants to make sure it owns all aspects of it. However, I will not take this as a sign that a new game will be made. No way am I holding my breath for that one.

Exactly.
 
And here DmC

They have registered DmC trademark after the first 2010 trailer Oo

I'm with you on this one. Whether it will be DmC2 or DMC5, I don't care anymore...
 
This sort of thing is just ridiculous. Maybe I should take a trademark out on the word 'The' and then have people pay me every time they use it. :tongue:

Oh, I've seen and heard worse. Do you know that Spike Lee, that established film director, filed a lawsuit against Spike TV because they 'affiliated' his name with a network he wasn't affiliated with? Plus, not to mention Spike isn't even his name. It's Shelton.
 
Technically, "DmC" is just a colloquialism, and an abbreviation. DmC's actual title is legitimately just "Devil May Cry", but "DmC: Devil May Cry" is just used for differentiation purposes. So it is actually still protected under whatever legal contracts Capcom has :tongue:
Devil May Cry Devil May Cry.

Spike Lee has always and still is just a dumb pr!ck anyway. What else is new?
 
Well, here's hoping it's a new game. I'd enjoy either a sequel to DmC or a sequel to DMC, because I know either variation of it will still mean hack n' slash fun and aching pain for my poor thumbs.

Maybe they should name the sequel DmD: Dante Must Die, or SoS: Son of Sparda. Something like that.

I wouldn't mind either DMC5 or a DmC2. Ideally, I'd want them to make both because I like them too much for Capcom to drop one of them.

Me too. I like the Old Series for the aesthetic wonders and gothic atmosphere, and the new one for the movie-esque characterizations of Dante and Vergil. I almost wish that Capcom would do some kind of crossover, but that isn't even wishful thinking...that's sticking my head in a non-existent pot of fanboy-dream gold.
 
Only time will tell what they have in store! (Hopefully this E3 or TGS.) Hell, this could have been just a business-as-usual trademark renewal just for brand protection, but hopefully it means they haven't given up.

Yup, would love for a DmC sequel for a bit more development. Then the next game, BAM, Crossover Bitches!!!
 
Either way would work for me.

However...
I don't like DMC5 to be another DMC4 all over again!
I want DmC2 to be a BIG improvement to DmC1! I don't want it to be the same!
If either way, I'd say "Screw this franchise! I don't wanna be associated to this IP anymore!"
