 Devil May Cry 4 - Image 1 


Heads up, Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony PlayStation 3 owners! Prepare to get your broadband connections all ablaze as we've just received word that the demo to the highly-anticipated slash-em-up, Capcom's Devil May Cry 4, is hitting both the Xbox Live Market Place and the PlayStation Store tomorrow.

That's right, on January 24, 2008, gamers will be able to partake in a slice of Dante and Nero's sword-clashing activities. Awesome.

So, what's the demo about? Playing as Nero, of course! One of Devil May Cry 4's main draws, players will be able to step into the newcomer's shoes and take advantage of the Devil Bringer. With it, armchair demon slayers can pretty much dominate anything that the game throws their way - in style.

There's also the newly-unveiled Exceed system that lets Nero "rev up" his own sword as if it was a motorcycle throttle, before dealing out some heavy-duty hurt onto his enemies. And after the long, hard slog, you'll be greeted with none other than Berial for a final showdown. Epic indeed.

So, you guys know what to do, right? Set your alarm clocks, stay up if you have to. Just make sure that your PS3 or Xbox 360 is powered up and ready to download as soon as January 24 hits. Updates as we get them!

To robert_slawson

I know someone with your same name and man, you make him look bad! Your comment is horribly written. I had to read your comment over a few times to figure out what you were trying to say. Please do everyone a favor and do a little more thinking before you post.

Playstation Store Update New Downloads

I wish I could download the newest Playstation Store downloads as soon as the date changes but Sony doesn't make them available that early. I usually wake up at 3:00am here in the U.S. to get ready for work but the Playstation Store won't have the newest downloads available until quite a bit later. I wish they provided them as soon as midnight hits so I could download them early and have them ready when I get home. Oh well, heres hoping to the future.

hihaaaa!

I'll pause my university's readings for an hour to try this demo! :D Looking AWESOME! I hope you have a difficulty selector with an EASY mode, lol. The 3rd was hard as hell (at least, the first time you play it, it looks IMPOSSIBLE, lol).

Perfect Time

THIS, is when demos should be released. I'm still not sure if i want to get this, the demo should make up my mind and its a good few weeks before release!

by Nevers - 2008-01-23 11:48:11
right on

This game looks pretty good... glad we're getting a taste sooner than anticipated. Hafta say that the demo's have been pretty slim pickin's as of late. Nothing very impressive at all...

i know what you mean

that's why I bring my psp to the university. remote play lets me start the download while i'm in class so it will be ready when I get home.

Wow

This is unexpected, Although it makes more sense then for us to download it 6 days before it releases. Two weeks is exactly how demos should be before the actual game comes out. I remember We got Burnout paradise like 2 weeks before the game came out. BTW i just pre-ordered the Collectors edition, that version will be killer.

Countdown

4 hours 54 minutes Cant wait!!!

by Stealth! - 2008-01-23 21:19:13
I hope you realize

That the update doesn't happen exactly on the next day, it sometimes happens like in the afternoon or later.
