I've got more, and its strate off of the PSM forums:
*NEW* DMC4 information from latest PSM (cover article) - 5 Days Ago got this from neogaf:
Quote: * Series staples remain intact - everything running at constant 60fps.
* Attention paid to every detail in the game is staggering.
* Characters are a lot more expressive in-game.
*New characters can be unlocked after clearing the game.
* High-definition graphics everywhere you look.
* Environments look so in touch with the DMC universe.
* Environmental destruction during battles such as the Variel boss battle are unparalleled with anything ever seen in the series.
* The game will have a crisp and responsive feel when playing.
* The game feels like a PS3 game more than anything else. (Don't kill the messenger here)
*When asked about the development cost, he said that they are 'making it to the point where we don't exceed the break point of what we can handle as a budget and still have the game be profitable.' He said the game is not twice as expensive as DMC1.
* The camera is much more cinematic now.
* Vehicles can be seen strewn across Fortuna. Cars and vans will be on the side of the roads etc.
* 16x9 aspect ratio. The camera will play a big part.
* More meaning and justification to the cutscenes and flow of the storyline.
* Same graphics engine as Dead Rising will be used to give the basic support to the graphics and appearance of everything. They initially looked at the types of middleware available, but they realized they couldn't do some of the things that they wanted to do. He said that most devs say, "We have this engine, we have this middleware. What can we make with it?" However, Capcom's development starts with, "We have this game, what do we need to make it?"
* Yuji Shimomura will be directing the cutscenes etc. again. He will ensure that the cutscenes will look much more action-packed and more stylish than ever. He understands the universe and Dante so will be able to make the cutscenes suit them.
*Johnny Young Bosch (the Power Ranger, Adam Park) is providing the motion-capture and and voice for Nero.
*When asked if Clover's departure from Capcom affected the game, and he said that the people who left are ones that wanted to move on to different projects. The people that are working on DMC4 are the ones that really want to make DMC4.
*The snow level that was in the E3 2005 trailer is in the game
Characters
* Nero's Devil Bringer is natural and not difficult to use.
* Dante's animations and expressions will be in the same cool tone as before
* Some of Nero's moves list given in PSM:
Charge Shot - Hold square to charge, then release to fire "As well as shooting bullets in rapid succession, you can charge up your gun for a slower, but more powerful shot."
Exceed - Pull L2 to charge the EX-guage "Revving your EX-guage like a motorcycle handle, you can build up to three levels of extra power for your moves."
Streak - While holding R1, press the left stick towards the enemy + triangle "Streak is a powerful forward strike"
High Roller - While holding R1, press the left stick away from the enemy + triangle Air juggle
Hell Bound - Face the Grim Grip and press R1+Circle "Think of this as a a grappling hook-like move that you can use to reach far away platforms - but only if there is a globe to catch.
Buster - Press circle near an enemy "This attack can be performed after you catch an enemy. Best used at the end of a combo, since it doesn't work well with juggleing.
Snatch - While facing an enemy, press R1+circle Used to grab enemies in the air or on the ground
* Vergil was a subject that was avoided as it was reiterated that Dante was one of the main focuses of this game. Vergil was still not confirmed to be in the game though yet it wasn't said that he won't be. Who knows. They have no interest in making a Vergil spin-off game either. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=2

The site's been updated (japanese version, anyway). There's two new diary entries (which I can't read for crap, obviously) and a new devils section that looks like it will detail various bosses/enemies from DMC4. Currently, Berial is the only one up. There's some AWESOME pics up, as well as some various descriptions (which I can't read either).
AWESOME Berial Art
Screen 1
Screen 2
There's like 9 more shots on the site, and they're just as good looking. Go see for yourselves. And remember they're on the japanese version of the site, not the english.

Minor Update:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GJZUn4yFzY&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Emaxconsole%2Enet%2F
It is a bit difficult to see, but you can view the frosts in the right of the video. The seem more aggressive and evasive which is a good thing for the AI of DMC 4.
It also shows Nero fighting Variel by shooting to extinguish his flames and the attacking Variel's weakened body. Looks interesting, but there isn't much of a wow factor as there were in the screens posted above.

Interesting interview.
By the way, those release dates IGN has up, are those official, or just placeholders?

Given that the dates on Capcom's site are still TBA, I vote placeholders.
Also, official site update! Japanese side of course.
The Devils section now has Frost alongside with Berial, along with a bunch of cool screenshots and two illustrations. Nice codpiece there, Frosty.
There's also a new gameplay vid up in the Movies section, showing Nero battling some Frosts and Berial, and revealing the S ranking as Smokin'.

I dunno what's wrong on your side, because I see it perfectly fine. OH DANTE. YOU SO... flamboyant. As ever 
Speaking of official site update, Capcom FINALLY updated the English side of the official site! The Characters, Devils, Screenshots and Movies section have all been filled with material, so now the English and Japanese side are nearly equal; the Diary, FAQ and Goodies pages are still Japanese-only.
