Devil May Cry heading for PSP slashing

Dante is unsheathing his sword and heading for a PSP slash-em-up, Capcom reveals

With the first Devil May Cry 4 info starting to trickle out of Capcom's Japanese fortress, Dante and his slash 'em-up action series are hot in our minds at the moment. But, thanks to a note on the company's Japanese website, it looks like the half-devil hero isn't just heading for the PS3, but Sony's slick PSP as well.

Unfortunately, the only info the listing offers about Devil May Cry's PSP debut is that it will be of the "stylish action" genre, which presumably means it won't turn out to be a Metal Gear Acid-style Dante card game, but something a bit more familiar to the console slash-em-ups we're used to - maybe even a port of one of the PS2 version of the game, which we'd be happy to replay on the tube with the aid of our PSPs.

Perhaps, with the official Devil May Cry 4 website due to open tomorrow, we'll get a bit more of a hard confirmation on the title, along with some gameplay info if we're really, really lucky. But with TGS only a few weeks away, it's likely that we won't have to wait long until we get our first glimpse of Dante hacking and slashing on the PSP. Stay tuned for more DMC love.

DMC is pretty good, depending on the one you played. I stopped playing after the second one. The game didn't flow as well in the second one as it did with the first.

I would love to see a 3D castlevania on PSP though. I thought the PS2 ones were pretty good. Same type of Gameplay as DMC.

man dmc 1 and 3 was the best man but dmc 1 is more of a classic in my mind because its original and for its time it was addicting and the storyline was hot i dont care if its a port of part 3 or 1 but it better not be part 2 or some new game with no point in the story like part 2 was.

Another great title announced for the PSP! The Nintendo DS certainly couldn't pull of a Devil May Cry game. This is the type of game that is ideal for the PSP. Lets hope this shines!
