@8BitHero man... your signature wins the internet.
An 8.5 game can be forgotten, but DmC armed with a 9/10 score will stand out for the rest of the year.
Huh, maybe I should! ^^ I really appreciate that and I'm glad you see it, too. I remember DmC's launch date was January 15th but I ended up getting it the month after so it'd serve as a birthday present, and holy crap! That's the same stage I'd also replay over and over! It's mostly because it was the same stage from the demo, so I get to see how far along I came as far as skill level goes. Mission 4 is my playground.Man, you should tell that to @GregaMan or whomever at Capcom, that's the story of a devoted fan. I can't quite remember where I was when the game came out. I think I headed down to my store right as it opened to get my copy, because I don't remember us doing a midnight launch. I got the day off and just played forever, especially had fun replaying mission 4 (from the demo) because I love that level so much, and it was great for farming orbs and such.
I can't wait to play again, going through with the DMC1 skin.
lol that's awesome.I broke a window pretending I was Dante when I was younger.
Forgive my reminiscing, guys. u.u
DmC came out with a Metacritic of 85/86, a good aggregate score to be sure, but with room for improvment.
If Ninja Theory can hit 9s and 10s this time I think its possible for them to attract a lot more fans. Espeically those who've never played a DMC game before, or people not even into action games.
However that will prove to be an enormous untertaking. DMC3 which some fans claim is the best in the series never hit a 90 Metacritic, even with its special edition.
An 8.5 game can be forgotten, but DmC armed with a 9/10 score will stand out for the rest of the year.
Why? If you don't like DmC you have DMC4 SE to look forward to, if you don't like DMC4 you have DmC DE to look forward to.I... officially... hate... Capcom...
Everyone wins in this situation.
i thought MGSV is going to be for PC too ._.well ****, another reason to buy myself a PS4 (first reason being Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain).
i thought MGSV is going to be for PC too ._.
Agreed.
Though I have to say, DMC3 was my fave original DMC game. (I haven't finished it yet, so what lmao) I wonder why it doesn't get the DMC4 treatment it deserves. I wanted to buy it on Steam when it was on sale but a friend convinced me otherwise due to the bad controls. The HD version for PS3 gives me 2 and 1 with it, and I hear it's not even that much better from the original. Guess I'll just stick with my rusty old PS2 copy.
Could you by any chance disclose when we can get more news on DMC4?Couple more answers and thoughts here.
>Demo?
Demos, when they happen, are planned in secret and then announced according to a PR/Marketing plan, just like titles themselves. So unfortunately it's one of those things that can't be discussed unless and until there's been an official announcement. For now, can't make any promises. But hence the livestreams.
>Where do you stream?
http://www.twitch.tv/capcomunity
We actually stream a lot: Monster Hunter every Monday (Monster Hunter Mondays), older Capcom games every Thursday (Throwback Thursdays), and promotional streams for current games on other days. And sometimes we just play something random like Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen. This Friday I believe we're streaming one of our upcoming titles....
>Discussion is more negative on IGN/Facebook/YouTube/somewhere else.
In general, you'll find that the more general the audience and the lower the barrier of entry for commenting, the more negativity, squabbling, and misinformation you are likely to see. Facebook and YouTube tend to be particularly mosh pitty because everyone's got an account, and the Devil May Cry content may appear in their feeds without them even seeking it out.
That may all go without saying, but it's to this community's credit that you're all so well informed and indeed, very even-tempered! People here may disagree on different aspects of the series, which stands to reason given how varied the series has been, but this is still quite possibly the greatest venue for having mature, adult discussion centered around the Devil May Cry games. So pat yourselves on the back! I like it here and take personal fulfillment in seeing a new wave of excitement on these boards.
I also appreciate that you guys tend to take it upon yourselves to remain informed about the games, and even when you debate, it's actual debate rather than baseless mudslinging. So, good for devilmaycry.org, and thanks for existing. You guys are great.
Why? If you don't like DmC you have DMC4 SE to look forward to, if you don't like DMC4 you have DmC DE to look forward to.
Everyone wins in this situation.
