Capcom respnds to fan fury over Devil May Cry 4

Capcom’s announcement last week about making Devil May Cry 4 multiplatform stirred up quite a stink on the message boards and prompted some fans to start a petition to boycott the game unless Sony rescinds its decision. Should Devil May Cry 4 go multiplatform? Capcom sounds off.

Should Devil May Cry 4 go multiplatform? Capcom sounds off. The message board thread “What are you thinking, Capcom?” even elicited a response from Capcom’s senior director of strategic planning and research, Christian Svenson.Of the criticism and petition, Svenson said, “We are certainly moved that people are so passionate about our products that they would go to such extremes. At the same time we feel that allowing more people access to our content pleases far more people than it displeases (after all, we're not denying DMC4 to anyone that was already going to get it). It really is the best decision for the company and for consumers."Capcom eventually closed the thread, explaining it had “run its course, gone off course, rolled down a cliff, hit a cow, and then exploded."The online petition, found here, states that "the undersigned" would boycott Capcom's products unless it reversed its decision and kept the game exclusive to the PS3. So far it looks like there are almost 9000 people who signed the petition, but there’s no telling what the petition will accomplish considering that are slew of multiple signings and a ton of remarks like “I AM A BIG FAT MORON WHO LIKES ****,” and “BOYCOT ALL YOU WANT. MORE 360 GAMES FOR US! THANKS GUYS!”

I dnt think you guys should make Devil may cry 4 go multiplatform it should just be for the PlayStation 3 only because 360 are wack and wii`s are ok but and the ps3 is the best system out there
