DmC Review Thread (Release Date - 1/15/13) Embargo is over!

Yeah well, Bloody Palace deserved it. If he walked into a bar, he'd be laughed out.



This must sting particularly hard for you after what happened with NG2.


Mechanicially, NG3 shares much more than most people think with NG2. It's just hayashit's stink dumped on top thats the problem.

I can honestly say from what I've seen of the razor's edge changes, I will enjoy that game far more than DmC, if a sigma 3 version is ever announced. It also dwarfs DmC in terms of content.

It's no black, but it is still Ninja gaiden. DmC is DmC. It pays homage to DMC, nothing more.
 
It just keeps getting better and better with this turd!

Btw, Bayonetta had the Lost Chapters which was its own version of BP. It was fucking awesome too!

Bayonetta had everything an action game of its type should have, content-wise. It was literally one of the most impressive DLC-free packages I've seen this generation. Just chock full of great content and secrets.

DmC was never ever gonna come close for as long as it's a Capcom title.
 
There is another /v/ leak out there by the way.

There is quite a few crazy stuff in that leak but the guy mentioned that it took him 6 hours to complete.
 
I just bought the combo deal on steam, running through dmc4 right now. Forgot how many chairs and urns you need to break in that game. And the eggs in the jungle are like Neogaf logo eggs, kinda, ehh maybe not.

It's still fun though.

It didn't have to come close to Bayonetta, it just had to include a series staple. For fucks sake, they made the easiest and probably shortest Devil May Cry game to date and then stripped away a big part of the replay value too.
 
Don't you think that, if PC were a viable/appealing option for him, that he wouldn't even be asking the console-related question?

That's why my next remark came in.

Am not and will never be a PC guy. Of the two consoles which is preferable?
Already answered, 360 version is superior if things haven't changed from the demo, I'd advise to wait for comparisons when both games are officially out.
 
More spoilers (take these with grain of salt):

Leak guy says Vergil states most of his epic lines as a boss from DMC3 in DmC.

Agreed, Bayonetta is loaded. So much respect for the player!
 
I notice a common thing with all these leaks is that

There's always some sort of failsafe in the ending that leaves room for the original Dante/story to return.

Yeah I noticed that too. They try to use known information to give credibility to the leak but a fake is a fake.

The next week or so is going to be a minefield of this shit.
 
I meant more the fact that NG2's mission mode was paid DLC when it was free for NG1 vanilla/already came in Black.

Repeat scenario here it's looking like.

NG2 had tests of valor. Effectively you got two missions modes with the DLC.

Not to mention that NG2 is still packed with more content in every way compared to DmC. I didn't buy mission mode for at least a year.
 
The tear powered time machine/crisis on infinite earths fake ending was awesome. I applaud that user's imagination.
 
Even though it's fake as hell, it'd be hilarious if it was real. Just because it's the absolute goofiest shit anyone could have thought up.
Ahh....

This is still nothing compared to the "Nephilims using the tears of a thousand babies to power up their time machines" story ending leak.
 
Personally, I'm a big fan of multiple ridiculous sets of leaks prior to a game coming out, because then even if someone were to drop the entire game in a post, you'd pay it no mind because of all the chaff surrounding it.
 
So are you guys saying that the story in that linked thread is all made up or that the screenshots and the last boss are made up as well?

Who the last boss and the costume you unlock are real, as the screenshots prove.

But what happens in the cutscene after you beat the last boss and what that means for the rest of the series story wise is yet to be known, unless/until we get screens.

Pics or gtfo, as they say.
 
Dahbomb is that dude from Dubai in the Marvel threads interested in the game? He always gets games early so probably could spoil the proper ending for those who are interested.

Those are two different links and leaks.

The screenshots and last boss are completely legit as are the spoilers from the guide itself. This includes the Bloody Palace info.

Pretty much any story related spoiler right now is a fake unless confirmed otherwise. No one really knows the ending of the game.

I am gonna ask.
 
I prefer PS3 for action games but unless they add AA and fix the framerate, it's a piece of shit. Definitely go 360.

I could probably get the game as early as the Friday before release, but lately the stores I go to that break street dates are starting to mark up games to $70 or more for selling early and I just refuse to bother doing that. So we'll see. If I get it early I'll be sure to let you guys know and answer whatever questions I can, but probably all the info will leak even earlier.

Cool thanks for clearing that up. You'd have thought that given the screencaps for the final boss the same guy would have leaked the ending as well.

By Friday I'd imagine someone will have spoilt it, especially as it probably will be being pirated by then, but thanks anyway.

The guy said that the story was nothing special which to me implies that there is no end game massive plot twist. But who knows really.

Well yeah I guess, I just really wanna see if Capcom was balsy enough to do a 'to be continued' sort of ending or if they made an ending indicating that DmC and DMC can coexist.
 
I don't know if that would be ballsy or a cop out. Trying to link DmC to DMC just creates so much confusion and disarray.
