DMC for the PSP? - Image 1 


We have a case of either purely awesome news for the PSP or a lapse in updating on the part of Capcom's website people. A recent post from Joystiq has us taking notice of a mention of Devil May Cry for the PSP on Capcom's Japanese website.

Here's the thing. As far back as 2005, there were rumblings of a PSP DMC. We even thought that they'd make an announcement for the series at TGS back in 2006, but that never really came to pass. Two years later, this pops up, but it could just be an unchanged announcement from way back when.

What's weird, however, is that this site listing keeps getting updated with new Capcom PSP games, but that one notice has never been taken down. Here's to hoping it actually means what we all hope it does: that Dante will be doing crazy killer combos on the PSP.

This entry has been there for weeks ,months, years.
Why should it now mean anything? Its not worth the news.

I'd rather be reading Capcom rep's input on the matter.

It could be a mistake, but I really hope it's not. They should really do a DMC for PSP.

Its possible to put it on the psp they just need to tone down the graphics to get to work on the PSP :D

They only need to look at GOW or Crisis Core to see what the PSP is capable of.

I found a Devil May Cry for PSP page on gamespot.
http://au.gamespot.com/psp/action/devilmaycry/index.html

And wasn't there already a plan for this but then it was quickly scrapped? Well lets pray its true and there is going to be a Devil May Cry on PSP.

It would be nice to think that Capcom saw GoW and thought "challenge accepted!"

Though I'd also like to see some other capcom games - Marvel vs Capcom for one (even though I can emulate it). They have some top arcade games that are crying out for PSP editions.

Wow I know you PSP people are desperate but come on, the last DMC game was terrible compared to the first 2. I don't get why people get excited about series that start bad and get worse, or are always bad such as the Killzone series.

Some people like game A, some people like game B. It doesn't matter to anyone else. And no, don't call PSP owners desperate. We can like it if a popular franchise comes to the PSP.

 » What are you talking about!

The first game was awesome, but the 2nd was crap compared to that! Number 3 + 4 are amazing as well (just look at any reviews). I happily look forward to a psp incarnation. As for Killzone, I'm pretty sure the developers have seen their mistakes and know how much is riding on this next title so that will be great too.

Jealous much? You sound like a kid that bought a DS and realized you made a mistake so now you feel the need to bring down others.

>the last DMC game was terrible compared to the first 2

have you ever played the series? do you know how many are released atm? get your facts straight before you post something stupid, no body cares what you think anyways :P

From Wikipedia, for the first game:
Game Rankings 92.2% (based on 72 reviews)[23]
Metacritic 95% (based on 36 reviews)[24]

"Starts bad..."

Game Rankings 84% (based on 74 reviews)
Metacritic 84% (based on 60 reviews)

"...and gets worse"

Those are some pretty damn good rankings.

Also, Killzone PSP was fun as hell, and netted about an 80% at both sites. Again, a very good score.

People like Devil May Cry. Just because you don't doesn't change the fact that for every one hater there are 10s to 100s of people who love the game series.

Apparently there are about five people that care what this obvious troll thinks, yourself included.

Wonder why this took so long to come out. Its been in development since before psp came out. Im glad to see devil may cry but a resident evil (classic adventure style) was coming out instead. Outbreak would be fun on psp.

PSP is perfectly capable of doing a DMC game so why is this a surprise if this is true?

   by jmak0 - 2008-07-05
 » please bring this out!

if they release this it will make the list of top franchises complete- final fantasy 7, mgs, gow, gta and others... I have been waiting for a dmc on the psp for ages, i just wish the psp had 2 analogue sticks...
