    Devil May Cry 5

    This is just a rumor at this point, but today capcom has an event going on and are expected to be announcing DMC5 and ninja theory as its developer.

    http://kotaku.com/5515819/heavenly-s...evil-may-cry-5

    According to a site transcribing something from the latest of Game Informer (we know, we know), Heavenly Sword developers Ninja Theory have been put to work by Capcom on a fifth Devil May Cry game.

    "Loose Talk has learned that Enslaved isn't the only game Ninja Theory is working on-we've heard that the Cambridge, England developer is being tapped for the next Devil May Cry", the magazine's rumour section is reported to have penned.

    "It is not totally unexpected, however; Capcom has said that although it is shying away from Western developer for new IP, it would continue to utilize them for known franchises, which DMC certainly is."

    That second point is key, especially in light of the use of Swedish developers for Bionic Commando and a Canadian studio for Dead Rising 2.

    There is a chance this rumour is complete crap. Then again, with a big Capcom press event kicking off in Hawaii on Tuesday, it's certainly interesting timing.

    While heavenly sword was a decent game, this definitely is not good news.

    They need to stop making devil may cry games and put more effort into the resident evil franchise. Resident Evil 5 was like the cliff notes for 4.....

    WHAT

    THE

    FUCK

    Japan seriously needs to get over its inferiority complex. They still make the best games. Not the west. The West hasn't overtaken Japan in shit.

    I BLAME KOJIMA

    EDIT: Capcom logic?

    Western devs make shitty beat em ups. Western devs are "taking over the world." Solution? Have western devs make shitty versions of your games. BRILLIANT!

    Much as I would welcome a 5 with open arms I don't want to see it happen.

    EDIT: Nevermind, thought you were talking about quality!

    There is a chance this might still be a rumor though? I shouldn't react so quickly to a kotaku article!

    DMC 5 will happen though. It will, Devil May Cry sells like fudge to a fat kid.

    They already said 5 was gonna be the last of its kind, and I think they both have different teams anyways.

    I was so excited when I saw this thread, but then I saw "Heavenly Sword" and just fucking bleh'd.

    I think when Kais says DMC2 pt 2, he means it is going to be another mess like DMC2. This is what happens when you take the talent out of these games and instead go for profits. Hell, I don't even know if doing it like this is more profitable! Probably is.

    EDIT: They are doing it with Dead Rising 2. Did it with Bionic Commando, which I heard suck.

    Waiting for the announcement, i swear if Hideki Kamiya has nothing to do w/ this game at all, this game will be an absolute disaster. WTF is capcom thinking rushing a sequel instead of waiting for Platinum games to finish their contract w/ fucking Sega?

    honestly the only problem I had with Heavenly Sword was the length, 4 hours is way too short especially with almost no replayability, but other than that the game was great. I'm not sure why people are assuming this is going to be horrible when you at least know they're somewhat competent at creating a stylish action game. Granted Heavenly Sword isn't the technical affair that DMC3/Bayonetta are on harder difficulties, but there was at least some strategy beyond button mashing compared to God of War.

    Guess they think that since so many people bought consoles last/this year then they need to rush out potentially crappy games for as much profit as possible.

    Why are people ripping on Heavenly Sword? Besides being incredibly short, it wasn't that bad..
