On one hand, I'm grateful that Capcom ported Alien vs. Predator to home console (kinda). But why here? Why not in the Capcom Beat 'em up that was released a while back?

Also, where's Slam Masters 1 and 2? Where's Red Earth?

Borderlands 3 just becomes more and more fun: https://www.dualshockers.com/claptrap-ac...lt-claims/

Regardless of whether or not Pitchford assaulted Eddings, I have now decided that I will only buy Borderlands 3 on the cheap, and physically and used, so I don't have to give Pitchford money. I was bordering that anyways, but now, the game has been soured for me, that I can't justify buying it when it comes out and giving money to Randy Pitchford.

About time considering they already lost a case nearly a year ago to a former employee.

In spite of the recent controversy surrounding the microtransactions of DMCV (basically it allows you to buy red orbs like in the Special Edition of DMC4) I am going to leave this here:

https://www.dualshockers.com/devil-may-c...-normally/

TL: DR Even if you are a scrub, you don't need to pay a single coin since the game is very generous with the Red Orbs.

The game does have microtransactions, yes. But those are entirely optional, the game is not build around those. The are using the same system from the 4th game.

But hey, if you don't want to take my word for it, then actually read the article. It was made by someone who played the demo. Or you can ask any person who plays DMC regularly and they will tell you that just because your weapons are more powerful doesn't mean you are automatically going to be better at the game. In other words, having a bunch of skills has nothing to do with how well you can use them all.

Either that or you can ask Matt Walker.


INB4 "Capcom shill"

It's been two months since the game was launched and.... Well, I don't like to say things such as "I told you so", but you get what I mean.

So much for being a "Capcom shill", uh?
