2006-05-19 01:07:05 DMC4 & RE5 to be playable at TGS

http://gamefront.de/

They also say dmc should be playable on a FINAL ps3 dev kit. I can't wait to see this stuff. Everyone knows about the too human devil may cry comparisons..

Too human (if its going to make an appearance at TGS) Better bring the pain because its set to go head to head with the new devil may cry which will have no doubt been greatly improved.

Many of us have lost faith in Too Human, regardless DMC is not my kind of game. Ninja Gaiden all the way.

Did you agree with me? Yes, No? Visit http://www.lebato.blogspot.com and see if we agree on something.

Yea alot of people have lost faith in too human, but I think it'll be much better than what we saw so i'll wait it out. I mean who in their right minds would expect the game to ship like what we saw at E3? There are many more months of development left.

DMC4 will rape Too Human Op i'm sorry but it just will ..

2006-05-19 10:43:08

Again still too early to call. Why do you think dmc4 or re5 was a no show at E3? Because it was probably in just as bad a shape as too human was. EVERY game when being developed looks and runs as badly as too human at one point or another during their development, but not many make the mistake of showing such a thing at a huge show such as E3.

I'm in a way still holding off on my final word in regards to too human. That will come when the game is finished.

They probably were but at least they had the sense to wait till TGS.

Even though i have never played Too Human it doesn't appeal to me like DCM does and i wouldn't even consider them being the same type of game either.

DCM and NG are similar because they are faster paced.
Too Human and Gods of War and similar because they are slower paced.

2006-05-19 10:53:58

I'd be careful calling Too Human Slower paced :)


I agree though don't consider them similar games :D

Some new media on too human.

Henry Sterchi too human designer is basically saying there will be no tutorial in too human to teach you anything you'll learn by playing the game and experimenting like how it use to be with old games like mario 64. Sure they told you stuff every now and then, but you generally learned by just playing the damn thing.

I think the no tutorial thing is a way to hide all of the things possible in the game. Expect alot of people to post stuff on forums regularly talking about something new move they've been able to pull off.

Its a very disruptive way of masking all the things possible in the game. I don't ever expect the guys at sk to ever tell how many different moves are actually in the game. Or how many different combinations and variations there can be. Easy to learn, but takes a lifetime to master is their motto. I'm loving the look of the effects in the 1st picture ;) Also is it me or is baldur standing in a much different stance than we are use to seeing him in when he pulls out his guns?

I'm sorry, but I find the NG/DMC-Too Human comparison rediculous. NG and DMC both pour all their resources into being the most fluid and playable beat 'em ups possible, whereas Too Human tries to do tons of other things. The flimsy look of Too Human comes from the right stick control method, it's an infinitely more casual approach to the fighting that in no way can be compared to DMC and NG.

Even if Too Human turns out to be absolutely fantastic, I'll still eat my shoes if it even approaches the fighting mechanics found in the aformentioned games.

I wonder sometimes what will happen with DMC4. There are rumors it will be multiplatform, some rumors that it will stay exclusive. Most telling to me is that DMC3 went to PC recently. That says to me Capcom doesn't really give a shit what system it's on. I'd like to see MS spend the coin to bring DMC4 to 360, but I doubt it as I don't think it has the size audience to justify it.

Well... Microsoft wouldn't need to pay money for dmc to one day make its way onto the 360.

Capcom has made it clear their target audience is global.

Optimus, I must ask you an honest question, and I'd appreciate it if you answer it truthfully; Have you actually played NG and DMC (1 or 3) extensively?

Looks like DMC3 is coming to the 360 in September!

2006-05-20 15:52:31

Huh we don't want some crappy PS2 port, man do Japanese dev's actually understand how powerful the 360 is?

It's like they are treating it as a rival system to the PS2.

2006-05-20 16:39:33

I think it's more like they want to test the waters of the 360 and porting and older game is the cheapest way to do that. Hell, I'll buy it. I haven't played DMC3 on PS2 yet, and this is a good sign of DMC4 being multiplatform.

2006-05-20 16:48:08

Well i never got round to getting DMC3 but i doubt i will get it.

Releasing portware to sample the waters in very flawed because:-

1. Most people didn't buy a 360 to play PS2 games. (and the least they could do is upgrade the graphics but i doubt they will)

2. 360 owners who previously owned a PS2 are more than likely not going to buy it.

So it is a failed example from the get go.

At least it allowed the developer some insight into the workings of the 360, to some degree.

2006-05-20 17:02:33

I'm not saying it's a good idea (I agree on all fronts BTW), but I'm sure that's what their thinking. Besides, DMC3 is probably the newest thing they can get out there until their next gen only games hit (Dead Rising, Lost Planet, RE5, DMC4). If they are taking until Sept. maybe they are tweaking the visuals a little like Battlefield 2 did (even though it didn't look great, it still looks better than it would have). I would play RE4 again too if they released in on 360 just because it was such a fantastic game and RE5 is still probably a year off.
