It seems that it's actually a critical travesty that this has happened, and is just more fuel to the fire that brand name is what sells a game, not quality. Especially prevalent since Platinum and Ninja Theory are both under-appreciated devs (in my opinion) who never get the sales they deserve.

But Platinum had the home advantage (they are Japanese, so the game will sell in Japan) and the IP advantage (Metal Gear is much bigger than Devil May Cry) so at the end of the day it wouldn't have made the blindest bit of difference which was actually the better game. Not that I can comment, because I won't be buying either of these titles for full price.
