PSM Rumor: Devil May Cry 4 coming to xbox360

[ThaGenecyst]

I couldn't find a Devil May Cry thread on here so i figured i'd just make a new thread... if there is one however, mods feel free to merge

anyhoo:

For the longest time, we have been hearing all sorts of rumors flying left and right, all of which have claimed that the another exclusive title for the PS3 has also gone to the Xbox 360. Now, we're dealing with one of those again, and the title in question this time around is the latest installment to the Capcom platformer, Devil May Cry 4.

Normally, it would have been easy to shrug off such a rumor. Now if you're somebody who thinks highly of the Playstation Magazine (well, to each his own, eh?), it may not be so simple to shrug this one off. As it turns out, the latest issue of PSM supposedly carries an article which reports that Capcom does indeed plan to make the game available on the Xbox 360. But, as we all know, PSM is in no way connected to Sony and so it'd be best to take this "news" with a grain of salt.

Well, considering that an earlier DMC title which was released on the PS2 has already been ported to the PC, perhaps the possibility may not be so slim. Also, on another note, this whole thing reminds us of yet another rumor which concerns Microsoft, Capcom, and a lot of money. Could all these be connected?

It's still a rumor and it has not been confirmed by Capcom. In fact Capcom has stated that several of their IP's will stay exclusive to their respective consoles such as LP and DR will remain on the 360.

I expect that DMC4 will remain a PS3 exclusive. The guys on 1up.com have said the same thing as well.

In an ideal world, yes, but I don't think Capcom is in any financial position to take a hit on a game just to keep it exclusive to a system that has such a small user base. In the end, the almighty dollar may dictate that DMC4 will be a multiplatform game. Why limit yourself to selling, optimistically, half a million copies, when there's another console that you've put lesser titles out on and sold well over a million of each?
