Time exclusive games suck imo. Some dlc stuff is fine for a a short time. Not like Destiny tho.
DMC5 exclusive doesnt do much imo. It will create more blowback and hate etc then it helps the Xbox brand. Its not a game thats tied to Xbox like some other games.
It will not help sales also for the price they paid probably. And Spencer isnt fan of it also.

You could say the exact same thing about Bayonetta and Nintendo. Bayonetta started out as a game strongly tied to the Xbox. Yet here we are.

And this's why it makes no sense for me. It's either mutiplat or ps4/pc.But again nobody expected TR to be timed exclusive so who knows.

I don't know what's going on anymore.

Like, I will love you for the info Rodneybouch if it ends up being true, but your cryptic comments make things difficult to understand. Are you suggesting that:

1. You have proof of DmC V being timed exclusive or having timed exclusive content.
2. You have proof of 2 additional new studios, one in Canada and the other one in USA.
3. You have proof of Sumo having finished their job with CD3.

??

Also, what did you mean with the Remedy comment?
I'm so confused right now.

I agree, timed exclusives are crap no matter who does it, unless they're funding the development in significant capacity. Still, if it does happen, which seems unlikely to me, it's going to be interesting observing the reactions. There was no significant blowback for Crash, right?

No there wasn't. For tomb raider there was. Also I heard that the final fantasy 13 coming to Xbox 360 was epic and the bayo 2 going to Wii U was pretty bad.

Well Crash was timed exclusive to the most popular console, which usually helps with having less blowback. A lot of people don't really care unless it affects them/ a game they want to play.

Maybe Microsoft and Nintendo moneyhat Capcom that DMCV will be exclusive NOT on PS4 lol.

:P

I think we need to have this gif ready for E3 or the future with the logo's of MS and Nintendo on it. Just in case. Who can make it? haha.

By the way, from what i remember while Spencer is against timed exclusive content, but he never against timed exclusive games, because i believe he think timed exclusive content=one or more platform players pay same money with less content, meanwhile timed exclusive games=the other platform players won't be again the pay money for a while at all.

And also lots of the original crash fans probably were PlayStation fans so it's possible many were still with PlayStation for those that remained gaming. Crash is the reason I am a PlayStation fan to this day.

You can also add

- At least one canadian studio
- At least one usa studio

A time exclusive for DMC 5


Gavin Raeburn is the head of PG and owner of PG holding limited
Ralph Michael Futton is creative director
They are both on the executive board with Nicholas Charles Wheelwright and Trevor Roy William.
And now you have Keith Ranger Dolliver who is on the board of Playground games limited.
Playground games limited is own by Gavin Raeburn.


Remedy is a possibility both a hard one
Shit nice hope its true

Has the poster been verified?

We have a Devil May Cry 5 thread where the poster says that it's coming to PS4 and would be revealed at a Sony conference and that was verified by the mods.

Seems strange.

Sounds like this guy is mainly digging through potentially confusing financial documents and such, which should provide some level of caution here on things that sound as left field as Devil May Cry 5 on Xbox timed exclusive. For all we know it could be timed exclusive for PS4 based on some strange wording that could be misread one way or another? I can't believe that this part makes sense.

To be fair Xbox will always get more blowback then PS really. Just because of history. Also PS has more consoles out and Crash is more tied with PS in general.

He wrote "timed exclusive", so it is possible...

I think Microsoft got so much blowback for RotTR because many people associated the IP with Playstation. Xbox gamers would rage as well if the next Mass Effect game would be 1 year exclusive for PS4.

Anyway, personally I agree with you that timed exclusivity for multiplatform games/IP's shouldn't exist. It benefits no gamers at all.

User warned: Console warring
Off topic but the butthurt around a PC game that is not on Steam will never not be funny to me.

So that's it? You basically call me a hypocrite and I respond back with a detailed reply, that my intentions had nothing to do with that and no simple "sorry ,I shouldn't have jumped to that conclusion " or anything?

I'm dropping it now but just wanted to make perfectly clear that I don't like any kind of console wars nonsense or things like that.

When u go back and read your comment , it just comes off very different from what u r explaining now .specially with ur concern of it not being PS4 exclusive yet calling it a great news when the rumor of it being x1 excluisve is seen .

I read ur explanation though . Thanks for that :)

I feel as though devil may cry is multi plat but day one on gamepass. If going through financial documents could be mistaken as exclusivity

Yeah, this type of explanation could make sense if there is something that seems a certain way in some documents. I just really can't see any type of timed DMC 5 exclusive on Xbox, would be beyond shocking.

Great news since it confirms right away that it IS heading to Xbox as well after all. That's really it. I never post comments with the intention to troll or start any kind of console wars shit posts or what have you.

Either way, if it ends up not being true I think we should doubt the info about the two extra studios as well. Whatever the case in a few days we'll know.

Just like tomb raider, I don't really relate the DMC series with Xbox. While it w ou I'd be fun reading people's thoughts if it does happen I just don't see this being a major win for Xbox, especially with the timed bs again.

It would be kinda odd too because didn't Phil say he wasn't a big fan of these kind of deals? Or did he mean timed or full exclusivity for DLC ?
