I don't care for Eternal Sonata at all, but that DMC4 is just great!

The DMC4 music is like always, mixed with good and bad, most of them GOOD!

And I didnt even know about the power meter for the sword up until now, AWESOME.

I am sure that Capcom is gonna release the demo VERY soon, or at E3, just like Dead Rising and Lost Planet.

What I dont get is why did they spend so much time arguing about Dante ... I never cared for Dante so it's all good to me. Looks awesome. Alright now onto Eternal Sonata ... two of my favorites games in one video SWEEET!

Oh and the part "Wanna Make it another Two Thousand" and than that sword sequence ... CLASSIC dmc :D

Cheers..!

I'm curious to find out a bit more about DMC4, so far it hasn't really impressed me all that much. But that's probably because I tend to compare it to NG which I guess is an entirely different kind of game when you look up closer.

To me it seems as that DMC4 is a very superficial game without any real depth in terms of leveling/upgrading. It also seems to lack the variety of weapons and techniques/moves that NG has to offer.
It seems more like a very straight forward hack 'n slash, which doesn't have to be a bad thing per sé, but I just don't see the 'killer app' this game is supposed to be...

Here is one screenshot where players get the hold on Dante :D!

I can't believe that Capcom won't add online co-op missions were they can choose Dante and Nero and then go into missions on onslaught hack slash experience.
Capcom listens to the community, so I hope the DMC4 forum does some sort of a request so Capcom does it.

I would rather not see in as online as it would only be tacked on and wouldn't be of any use.

Some games should stay single player experiences in my eyes.

Because when you tack something on you give people reason to complain about it, when it doesn't meet their standards.

I think Itagaki said something along those lines with DOAX2.

Personally i think co-op in DMC4 would be great, but it's a bit late now to be adding that, and anymore additions will only cause the release date to be put back.

I agree with KORN.

It's not like we are asking your regular online add-on, with is deathmatches...etc.

The single player is there for sure, and Capcom wouldn't go for anything else but the single player experience.

But by now with XBL and PSN, people love the co-op aspect, and if they put in online co-op for a Mission Mode with tons of enemies were Dante and Nero is played by 2 gamers with mics going on, it would add so much more after the story is done.

Well all I care about with DMC4 is the single plater aspect, after all thats all the other games in the series have relied upon.

I think if you are looking for co-op and online play then you should be looking more at Too Human.

I doubt NG2 will have online co-op play either, mainly because they are single player games and developed as such.

I agree with Jollipop. Some (well imo actually all) games should just focus on SP and put all the effort into just that, a la Bioshock...

I think the desire for co-op speaks volumes about how underestimated the combat system in this game is. It's not Gauntlet, it's incredibly well balanced with a thought out ranking, combo and style system that measures how you mix up things and what pace you're playing at.

It's easy for people to just barge in and try to re-decorate in a game when they don't fully understand what the appeal is in the first place, nor what aspects are instrumental in making it what it is.
