    Capcom's documentation claims that it is, and it definitely looked retina in person. But those screenshots they sent that are posted in the article definitely do not look retina. So I don't know what the final result will be. Maybe they sent outdated screens or something. It was too hard to tell for sure when I played it, but I guess we'll find out in the next few weeks.

    FWIW, even if it isn't retina it looks damn good in motion:)

    Refrain: To restrain or hold back; curb.

    I'm sure you know the meaning, but I couldn't resist the urge to post a meaning of it :D

    I believe it's just a way of distinguishing this version of DMC 4 from the consoles due to quality and gameplay changes etc. Anyway, it sounds cool and the word art of refrain is stylish.

    After watching the video, I found an astonishing feature that might upset DMC 4 fans: the Exceed gauge charges automatically at a very slow rate!!! But then, Blue Rose seems to be charge automatically, which is a god send from Capcom.

    I'm totally hooked by the gameplay video, but I guess a lot of features in the console versions will be missed or changed. Let's just hope that the 'Dante content update' will be released soon after the initial launch.

    Not to be a nerd, but at least this game has bilinear filtering
    (I'm looking at you, Ghost N' Goblins: Gold Knights) :D

    A "refrain" is also "a phrase or verse recurring at intervals in a song or poem, especially at the end of each stanza; chorus." Seems to me that's probably what they meant.

    IGN:
    The iPhone version is using many of the same assets as the console game, and will tell the same story – albeit more in a "greatest hits" sort of way than a total port.

    Yeah, I know -- that info came out later. From the new gameplay videos, though, there's clearly much more gameplay content here than in RE4.

    Except those horrible footsteps!! Can't Nero walk or something? He should be able to walk slowly then accelerate and run. At the moment his walk animation is super weird!

    When will this be released
     
  20. I almost completely forget about this among all of the Dead Space hype. No solid release date yet, I assume?
