Devil May Cry 4 |OT| of daring to defy your savior

worthplaying.com


The key word for Devil May Cry 4, then, is "balance." Capcom has learned lessons from its initial breakout hit, to their over-ambitious sequel, to both editions of the third title that restored the series back to its former glory, albeit not without its lumps. All of these lessons culminate in Devil May Cry 4, which actually manages to balance its over-the-top gameplay. Lest we forget, boys and girls — balance means fun.

The difficulty has been balanced. No longer should gamers have to fear for their lives upon entering a new room. Checkpoints are plentiful, enemies are tough but not too tough, and bosses just so. There's no point-saving, though. You're in a mission for the long haul — even if you "save," once you turn off your system, you're back at the beginning of said mission once you turn it back on. If you think the current play level's a cakewalk, you can turn things up a bit for even more challenge
.


I think I've said enough. Devil May Cry 4 is epic and solid, and it'll be coming your way in two weeks (or the just announced demo tomorrow). Unless you really, really can't stand quality stylish action games, this is definitely one to look forward to.


If that was a preview -- WorthPlaying just side-step the embargo and secretly just did the first Western review. Clever bastards.

Capcom originally stated:

Although it's 1:00 AM here in Pacific time, so maybe everything was bumped by an hour.

EDIT Damn, capcom treating Euro's fairly for once.

Also -- can a MOD EDIT THE TITLE and say (demo is online or something)?

There's the info from the Australian marketplace. Seems the 360 will be getting the demo before the PS3 in Australia, then.

Lame! I'll just download the Xbox 360 version then. I REALLY don't wanna play on the 360 controller, though. :\

Doesn't seem to be appearing on the Japanese, American or Australian PSN's at all yet. The Australian is a given though, as it was delayed till Feb 1st. Still, this is a kick in the balls for PS3 owners - the franchise was born on the Playstation. Odd, no?

It's just logistics. They didn't go out of their way just to spite you. Surprisingly, most people ( = all outside GAF ) won't worry about 12 hours.

download both.

i'm going to download this on PSN later today.

definitely getting the PS3 version though, because I really don't like the 360 controller for action games.
