So the demo is out and available around the internets today. I gotta say, I spent a lot of time with this game on PS3 and 360, and if you're a graphics nerd, this PC version is going to BLOW YOU AWAY.
On a good-but-not-amazing PC, with all the detail cranked in the benchmark mode, this thing was still rocking a solid 60fps. Every part of it just looks smoooooth and although it was already a quick game, overall it even plays a touch faster on PC.
The demo lets you challenge a boss immediately, or take a 10-minute run through one of the game's gorgeous levels.
It also has the popular benchmark mode so you can see how your rig stacks up. The full game offers a Turbo Mode (exactly what it sounds like), and a Dark Knight Mode that exploits PC powah to pack the screen with more enemies than you can shake a Red Queen at.
Get the demo now! Or hit the jump for the full media blast (geez I hate those words)...
PRESS RELEASE:
We just wanted to let you Devil May Cry fans know that the PC demo for Devil May Cry 4 is available for download at GameSpot.com and other downloadable content websites today.
This demo features two missions and Benchmark Test Mode for hardcore Devil May Cry gamers and PC enthusiasts to check out. Including, Executioner Mission, which tasks the player to tackle a boss battle right out of the gate, Exterminator Mission, which is a 10 minute level challenge, and Benchmark Test Mode, which allows you to test how well DMC 4 performs on your PC rig.
For those uninitiated, the PC version of Devil May Cry 4 will feature a host of new features exclusive to this version, including Turbo Mode, which turns up the speed for insane action, and Dark Knight Mode, which will harness the processing speed of your PC to deliver unbelievable numbers of on-screen enemies to combat. Additionally, Devil May Cry 4 also supports 120 frames per second (up from 30 frames per second in the console version), both Direct X 9 and Direct X 10 modes, and will be fully compliant with the Games For Windows program.
The action takes place on July 26th and 27th in London Metropolitan University's Rocket Complex, and will feature the continent's best competition on games including Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Capcom vs SNK 2, and Hyper Street Fighter II Anniversary Edition.
The event will also be the UK public's first chance to get hands-on with the new Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, so it's truly a "can't miss" event for any fighting game fans.

Just a few "best in class" Monster Hunter fan-made movies to keep the fires burning in the West for this runaway smash hit from Japan. My favorite is embedded above, but this one is also pretty hot.
