Yes you can replay normal all you want like a wuss so you can buy all special moves. There are no stats. You only get new or upgraded moves and they carry over to any difficulty. Load times are lightning quick on PS3.
Like a wuss? Given the extra difficulty on the harder modes in this game that feature is most important. I like a challenge, beat DMD mode on all 3 DMC games, but DMC4 looks to have raised the bar a few steps in the difficulty.

Also, it helps to go through Bloody Palace fully powered otherwise it can get really difficult.

And very pleased to hear about the loading times.

That's news to me.

Something else I need to know. Does Dante and Nero share red, blue and DT orbs? For example, I've already bought three blue orbs for Nero and expanded his health bar. If my the game switches to Dante, will Dante have the expanded healthb as well? Or do I have to refarm red orbs and repurchase everything again for him?

Yeah. Everything carries over and the proud souls get refunded for Dante to use.

I just spoiled myself a little bit, but it was awesome.

after you protect Kyrie during the credits you get the secret cutscene, its dante/trish/lady getting a phonecall and taking on a new job, so awesome.

How high do you guys think the chance is for a DMC5? It better come dammit.

Unless this game bombs somehow, I'm sure we'll see 5 this gen. Even if it bombs, Capcom would still give it another chance since it's normally a solid franchise.

Seems like a fairly large spoiler, but I have no idea what you consider spoilers. Some people got pissed about finding out that Luigi is in SMG ;)

its a secret ending, not any plot spoilers at all. I would almost call it an easter egg.

Sure did. It should do better numbers first week than DMC3, and that's just the PS3 version by itself. It did another 30K on X360 in Japan first day. Both had a 60% sell-through on the first day.

Oh wait, just read the spoiler. If that scene wasn't in there to get you all hot and bothered about 5, then I don't know what is. :lol

4 player DMC confirmed! jk.

Hopefully, now that they all have their family issues sorted out, they can go back to taking normal kick ass jobs without all the drama :lol

170,000 first day not too shabby at all, especially considering Smash came out same day.

Iirc DMC3 did 173,000 its first week, so DMC4 sales almost matched DMC3 on day one.
 
Well that confirms it -- so what do you want in your DMC5 guys?

Maybe it should turn into a FPS, to satisfy those 'journalists' that want 'innovation.'

We need more first person games! Everything should be a first person game from now on. Can't get enough mmmmmmmmmm yeah.

I hope Ninja Gaiden 2 can at least break 100K in Japan. :/

90 million (?) PS2, DMC3 173k first week.
5 million (?) PS3, DMC4 140 first day.

DMC5 confirmed, for real.

A new FPS is equivalent to a new roster update.

How much did the original sell (Xbox)?

In Japan about 90K. Perhaps it creeped up over 100K by now but I doubt it. Most of the games sales were in the USA.

The "new job" from the ending phone call is just Dante being called to investigate the corporation from DMC2.

Ice cream, daisies, clouds, and sugar sweet cotton candy NOTHING TO SEE HERE!

Yep. The PS3 userbase has come through for DMC4. It's nice to see and should give 3rd parties renewed confidence that their games are going to sell.

DMC5 -- dante gets a haircut and accepts a job that sends him to mars where he stumbles onto a portal that sends him to hell to meet sparda, but it turns out that sparda is actually the cyberdemon from doom

I'm talking about Ninja Gaiden on Xbox.

N00B.

I always wanted to say n00b like that! Woo!

As an aside, my Gamestop called me and said they might not have enough PS3 versions to cover my preorder. I preordered too late. I might have to get the 360 version now if I want it day and date. I want to play this game with the DS3 but I'll deal if I have too. I'm not waiting.

That's pretty good. :D DMC4 (PS3) should be in the top 10 hopefully.

Logic tells me that in a thread about DMC4, you were talking about a DMC game sales.

It should be Top 2 behind SSBB.

Ya know, Best Buy, Target, Wal Mart, etc. are very good alternatives :D

It's really not that bad with the 360 controller.

I still plan on changing target lock to right trigger, instead of right bumper.

I think Nero will be fine on the X360 controller. He plays slower and doesn't have a lot of theatrics with hitting all sorts of buttons.

Dante though...yeah, I can't see it. Doing style changes mid-combo with the shitty X360 d-pad and all the weapon changing with the long-pull-in triggers and all the quick attacks with the big face buttons... >_<
