It’s true, it’s coming. When? “Real soon!”
From what I’ve seen, this is going to be the best DMC on PC ever, plus it has even more stuff than the console versions. If you don’t trust my Capcom-paid opinions, we’ll put our money where my mouth is with the upcoming demo. See for yourself!
And yes, the demo includes the popular “Benchmark Mode” you’ll remember from the Lost Planet PC demo. If you feel the same way about your PC specs that George Will feels about baseball stats, this thing is like crack even apart from the game itself.
Hit the jump for my impressive repasting of our press release

I admit that I try and stay away from anything that looks RPG-ish, even when it is one of our totally sweet Capcom games. I have a problem. It’s called OCD, and it’s debilitating and not funny at all, especially when it forces me to collect every last little thing in some game that I didn’t have time to play in the first place while I should be doing things like showering.
Watching the eyes of our Japanese officemates positively *light up* when they get near the game, however, I took another look at Monster Hunter, and I have to say–it looks stunning. Then I remember this is running on a portable–a PSP–and then I think it looks almost unbelievable. Then on top of that I realize there are about 8,000 hours of gameplay there. Then I remember I have a problem, drop it like it’s hot, and run away from the game.
Anyway, it appears many of our fellow gamers in Japan are not as wise as I am, and have been drawn in like moths to the flame once again. This thing just shipped over a million units in under a week. On PSP! Yes, it’s that good.
Read on for the full press release (yes, this is a real press release and we have the dumptruck full of yen to prove it!)…

Gamers Will Have the Opportunity to Experience the Power of the “Devil Bringer” Before Purchasing the Game
Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today confirmed that owners of Sony Computer Entertainment’s PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft will be able to experience Devil May Cry® 4 early, thanks to the release of a playable demo. A free downloadable demo of the game will be available on the PLAYSTATION®Store and Xbox LIVE® Marketplace in early 2008. Devil May Cry 4 has been rated M for Mature by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB).
The demo introduces gamers to the gothic-inspired supernatural world of Devil May Cry 4, new protagonist Nero and the awesome power of his Devil Bringer. The demo consists of a sampling of sections from the full game, chosen to showcase Devil May Cry 4’s varied locales and allows gamers to familiarize themselves with Nero’s unique abilities. Players will receive instruction on the various new actions that the Devil Bringer bestows, such as the ability to slam creatures to the ground, cover great distances in a single bound or even grab enemies while on the ground or in the air and pull them towards Nero to continue the attack combo. The Exceed system allows Nero to “rev up” his sword as if it were a motorcycle throttle and unleash devastating attacks. Players will need to master all these techniques before the end of demo showdown with the mighty Berial.
Fully demonstrating the power of the next generation of consoles, the Devil May Cry 4 demo brings to life the coastal city of Fortuna and its surroundings, such as the port and snow-capped mountain ranges in exquisite detail. Devil May Cry 4 delivers its intense action at a constant 60 frames per second at 720P resolution on HD monitors, ensuring seamless and breathtaking gameplay all in stunning high definition.

You’ve heard talk about more big-screen Resident Evil action, and now it looks like the rumors are… true?
2008? Awesome. New storyline? Double-awesome. CG? … I <3 CG, but am worried this could reduce my opportunities to stand creepily nearby Mila even further. Details as they develop…
