Capcom Take on DMC4 multiplatform move

Sometime last week, Capcom has confirmed the long-time rumor which has been going around, saying that the supposed Sony exclusive Devil May Cry 4 was going multiplatform. This was of course followed by a lot of varied reactions and even some Dante-must-stay-with-Sony movements which resulted in an online petition to keep the franchise exclusive.

Well, with all the clamor that we have been hearing from fans, someone from Capcom has finally braved the hordes, and spoke about the company's stand in this decision. That brave man was no other than Christian Svensson, Capcom's senior Director of Strategic Planning & Research. His brief statement is as follows:

We are certainly moved that people are so passionate about our products that they would go to such extremes. At the same time we feel that allowing more people access to our content pleases far more people than it displeases (after all, we're not denying DMC4 to anyone that was already going to get it). It really is the best decision for the company and for consumers.


Even though some fans may be upset at this development, the man does seem to have a point. After all, moving a title onto another platform may not be so bad, and it doesn't lessen the fact that Devil May Cry 4 will be, as its predecessors were, a cool and fun game. Besides, weren't games created to allow people to have fun in the first place? Anyway, what's done is done, and all that we can do now is wait for the game to actually come out and see if it can live up to the expectations of the masses.

The people who formed that petition did it because they are Sony fanboys and want to see them come in 1st place, as if Sony was a sports team or something.

LoL,Capcom didnt make Crackdown,RealTimeWorlds do.They made Lost Planet and Dead Rising,and they could "possibly" be going to the PS3.I doubt Microsoft will let that happen,if they want to win they better not...both those games really pushed 360 sales and sold like crazy,especially Lost Planet.

Was Ninja Gaiden Sigma on 360? Xbox? Exactly. Was NG the ONLY exclusive for Microsoft made by Team Ninja? Exactly. It would be ok if we got Lost Planet and Dead Rising, but they havent said a word about that.

Going MP doesn't mean that PS3 owners will get a dumbed down game.  The PS3 is still the lead SKU. PS3 owners still get to own DMC4.  Now, 360 owners get to own it also.  It's a Win-Win situation.  

In this generation, 3rd party titles are getting less relevant to the success of a console.  1st and 2nd party titles is where the success for each platform lies.

DMC4 is the eqivalent of NGS going MP.  Gears 3 would be more the equivalent of GTA going MP (which has gone MP).  What would lemmings say if Gears of War 3 went MP?  I think that would have more of an impact.   It's also very likely since Epic is pissed off at the way Microsoft is handling things.  All in all, DMC4 is nothing to get excited about compared to GTA4.

porting game is BS cause it lowers the quality of the superior system.

 

look at last gen where tons of xbox games graphics were held back because they got ported from the weaker ps2.

 

now its the reverse this gen we wont see much of ps3's full potential becuase capcom are cheapskates who like to port games.

MS owns the publishing rights for the gears 1 and gears 2. So maybe in 2009 or 10 when 3 will be released we will have a multiplat game but NOT until MS stops publishing the game which they are.
