DMC4 demo a bit late on Euro PSN News
PlayStation 3 News by Robert Purchese
Halt; Capcom Europe has told Eurogamer that European Xbox 360 gamers will get the Devil May Cry 4 demo the same day as their American counterparts - January 24th.
However it won't appear on PlayStation Network until one week later, to be precise. You could mock up a US account if you fancied downloading it tomorrow, mind.
Sorry for any confusion, we will look both ways before crossing the road from now on.

The game was technically for PS3 wasn't it originally? So this makes me think the PS3 version isn't ready or there's serious problems with the PS3/PSN.

Lazy, lazy, lazy. There's no justification for a delay. None whatsoever. Sony just couldn't give two short shits about us.

@ Donnie
Capcoms bussiness model now is to develop all games Primarily for the PC and port to 360 and PS3. Probably due to the fact that PC Dev kits are a fraction of the price of console ones. But as Beano says Sony Europe just arent very quick of the ball when it comes to certification. |

Is anyone surprised? Europe loves Sony anyway, so why bother making an effort?

LeD - I'd reconsider if I were you - there's actually a noticeable price difference on some content on there - I deal in Euro, but for instance, the Motorstorm Double Track pack costs €4.99 on PSN Europe, but only $2.99 on the US store - that's the equivalent of €2.05 - a saving of over 50% - for close to zero effort. Of course it works both ways - Tekken costs more on the US store than Euro....but then you can choose. Having 2 stores may well be seen as an advantage.

I have a US account so it doesn't bother me, but I would have thought any gaming journalist worth their salt would have perhaps enquired to Capcom why it was late. I guess minor details like that just aren't important.

it could all be some devious Sony PR trick, as by delaying the release everyone in EU will download it from their US accounts and then those figures will be boosted so Sony America will then say,
'Well downloads for demos in USA r 5.6giga million so suck it Xbox'. Then Xbox returns with, 'Well it's ur EU consumers basically doubling that figure Sony' To which Sony replies, 'Yeah...well.....u smell' Either way i'm dling it using my US account as my EU account's ass is getting sore from being screwed too many times. |

It is only a week, nothing really to cry over. European PS3 owners should all have US account, its mandatory with SCEE handlings of PSN Europe still a joke!
Still for a one time exclusive, this still like, yeah?!! Why the delay not the same for XBL European users? Should roll out on both the same way. As for Turning Point demo, downloading it at moment on XBL, just saw the banner ad and did not realise it was up! |
