(OH SHIZNITS) Devil May Cry 4 confirmed multiplatform PS3/360/PC

m0dus said:
Um. No. This isn't ****ing EA or Activision. The technology that they developed for this game was at the core of Dead Rising and Lost Planet. It is specifically tailored to each platform's inherent strengths. This isn't some lowest-common-denominator nonesense.

You are aware that they are under a deadline right? it pretty much has to come out this winter. So let me ask you... could that extra time spent making the game for the 360 and pc possibly be used for improving the game? hmmm, well If it was still an exclusive they could just focus on the game and they could get the best out of the system. But now seeing as how this decision to make the game multiplatform was made fairly recently, they now have to spend valuable time porting it to other consoles. Valuable time that could have been used to make a much better game.

It's not like the dev team found out about the port on GAF.

I bet the 360 version has been in development for a while.
 
I'm pretty sure the idea of a Xbox 360 version has been batted around Capcom since production began on the PS3 version. With the success of Dead Rising, I believe the Xbox 360 version was cemented. I would say it's been in developement since then, at least. Capcom has plenty of time.

Quote of the thread. I'm more of a Ninja Gaiden fan, but I'm glad this is mulitplatform just for this thread.

:lol Seriously, why is Sony losing all of these exclusives? That's a loaded question, and everyone knows what kind of bullets it uses.

Sony exclusivists before, during, and after.

No game dev in the world would release a multiplatform game simultaneously if they were not developed simultaneously.

This is an Assassin's Creed situation, where Capcom was basically staying silent for a while to give Sony some face.

'Course, they probably chose the wrong day to break the news...

I bet it has been in development on the 360 for as long as lost planet has been out. If it has been in development for the 360 since it's conception, then capcom is filthy lier and they would loose even more credibility in my eyes.
 
super funk said:
Yeah you did.



How soon we forget.

This type of pwnage is many times better than this thread. Please v1cious, we need to see a response. I really want to see what you have to say. I believe spwolf was owned in a similar fashion in the Feb NPD thread. Don't be a chicken and stick around please unlike him.

Well I'm sure Capcom's going to lose some sleep over that.
 
Why is this not news to me? I kind of thought this has been as good as confirmed for a couple of months. Anyways, what's up with the PC version? It's coming, but if I got it correctly only sometime after the PS3 / 360 version? Possibly like what happened with DMC3?
 
Always thought the "importance" of DMC4 was overstated.
Still think so.
But this thread rules :lol :lol
And yeah, this is probably just the first of several to go multi.

Yeah, it won't be there same day. And it'll probably suck if Capcom's recent PC stuff is any indicator.
 
The breakdowns are hilarious. :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

BAD NEWS! AFTER BAD NEWS! AFTER BAD NEWS! AFTER BAD NEWS! AFTER BAD NEWS!

Grecco said:
I wonder if the Same Sony fans angry at Capcom now were Angry when PS2 got RE4?
That's the the first I thought of when I saw the thread. Now Sony fans know what those Cube exclusive owners went through last generation. :lol

You know I didn't even believe what Jonny posted yesterday after what duckroll said but I still said I wouldn't be surprised if DMC4 comes out on 360... and now it's official. It isn't even timed exclusive. I know which of the 3 consoles I will get at last, I'm sure MGS4 will make it to the 360 as well if not GotP then MGS4:S (just like MGS2). As of next month I will be an official next-gen. DS360 owner.
 
Well, my decision not to get a PS3 this week now seems like it was right... Just announce MGS4 for the 360 and I wont have any real need to ever own a PS3.

That may be true but it could be the start of a trend that won't be favorable for Sony or their fans.

Same, and until that day arrives I have no real reason to pick one up. Multi baby, that is all I got to say.

We? What, do you work for Sony?

We as in PS3 owners. Dead Rising is cool. I'll rent it. But I have always wanted Lost Planet. Lost Planet this fall/winter for the PS3 would be nice.

It would be nice if this Capcom thing went both ways.

I have no doubt that the PS3 will get Lost Planet: Really F*cking Lost Edition pretty soon.

If things keep going like they are, and they are snowballing currently, this seems inevitable.
 
I believe all GAF threads from here out must have "BALLLLLLLLLINNNNN'" in it somewhere!

Come on, who's with me??????

Errr......ummmm........

/crickets

Sigh

:(

Then...go buy Lost Planet on your way to Blockbuster tonight...?

(Or am I missing something...)
 
Jonnyram said:
Wait... are you saying this is coincidence!? :lol


No not at all. I think MS asked/made this happen. It's no coincidence imo.


But at the end of the day this news for some weird reason makes me want a 360 even more. Mass Effect, Gears of War, Bioshock, and Alan Wake are 4 games that I HAVE to play.
 
I love all the locked threads on GAF right now!

I am very much looking forward to playing DMC4 on either console. It is pretty funny. Sony, you have -this- much time to release a Sixaxis with rumble and get your achievement system ready. Otherwise, I will just buy all my multiplatform games for the 360. MGS4 will go multiplatform (I thought this was obvious from the drop in texture quality over the last year in the screenshots?).

See now this is just getting to stupid now.
 
hmm well I guess as long as DMC4 is still a really good game, I don't really give a shit how many consoles it gets ported to.

As a loyal long time fan of the series tho, I'm a little suspicious.

Oh. So that's what I missed. You'd rent Dead Rising if they released it for PS3 but you'd BUY Lost Planet.

I get it now.
 
Dead Rising is cool. I'll rent it. But I have always wanted Lost Planet. Lost Planet this fall/winter for the PS3 would be nice.

Reverse that and you'd have a good plan. Lost Planet is a great rental, but Dead Rising has tons of replayability. It's the game that keeps on giving.

On topic, Sony needs to check their Magic 8-Ball...

or what does sony have in store the next three days?


Like Bad_Boy said weeks ago, everytime Sony had some great news it gets offset by some bad news.

It continues. Sony will have some great news next week probably. :)
 
Ok guys I'm a huge DMC fan and I wanted to ask a question as to why there are people thinking this will be a bad port. The DMC games have never taken full advantage of the ps2 as we know they don't really push the system graphically. The shots of Devil May Cry 4 look graphically good but definitely not out of the 360's reach.
