Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition has now been released in the UK. (Or, at least, I've just received confirmation that it's being shipped to me...)

W00t... This is still slated for September I believe here in the US. I was thinking of getting it but I already own both versions for the PS2 so...

The Special Edition never made it to the UK. Which is such a pain, as Vergil is possibly the coolest bad guy ever. :lol: There was a time shortly after it was released when I wondered about asking someone in the States to buy me a US PS2 and DMC3:SE... ;)

Hopefully I'll be able to have a play with it soon...

Had a play. Wasn't able to figure out a simple way of getting widescreen working. A pain, since it works fine in the PS2 version. ;)

However, DMC3:SE works on Vista.

And playing DMC3 with a keyboard is just totally wrong.

Must go get an XBox360 pad...

So far my opinion of this port is a very bad one. It runs better on Vista than it does on XP. :shock:

I'm seriously tempted to ask someone to buy me (if I pay them, of course) a US NTSC PS2 and DMC3:SE on the PS2...

Must... play... as Vergil... :D

Hey!

I have the Microsoft Sidewinder Gamepad Pro and i can't seem to be able to change the controls through the options menu. Do i really need to buy a gamepad that's a replica of the PS2 with analog and digital control at the same time???

This is so much of a direct port of the PS2 that they don't even take into consideration the PC's hardware. AAAhhhhhh........ u can't believe how i wish Squaresoft will wake up and develop an exclusive Final Fantasy for the PC that uses our very powerful graphics card with pixel and vertex shaders everywhere.... OK i'm dreaming sorry !!! :?

I use a logitech cordless force feedback 2. It works flawlessly. The design is similar to a PS2 controller. Except...the numbering of the keys is different. However, once u figure it out...its a walk in the park.

DMC is definately an amazing game. Really fun. The satisfaction of beating the bosses is unmatched to any other game I have played. :)

Has anyone figured out how to change the res on this game yet? I would like to get that sorted before I even deal with reconfiguring my 360 controller :?

I've sorted out the business of the wrongly mapped analog sticks (by using ControlMK and the XBCD Xbox 360 Controller drivers/setup program) without losing the analog control for movement! However, I haven't fixed the res issue. The game struggles with the framerate as it is, purely because of bad coding.

I bought this because there was a rumour floating around that the PS2 version of SE wasn't going to appear in the UK. It's due for Spetember, so I'll just wait for that...

Eh, this was only cheap anyway.

I would have to assume no one has found a way to play it widescreen then?
If not, thats damned annoying as I was planning on buying it and have a widescreen monitor. Pooey, what'll I do now?

1. play it stretched, the game is too awesome to waste your time looking at graphics :rockout

2. or with black bars if your graphics adapter / tft combo allows that

3. buy a 4:3 tft to have a dual screen setup, one for old 4:3 games, one for ws wootness

4. dont buy the game :nudgenudge
