Dante's Inferno

A Very Fun Ripoff

You've heard it a million times - Dante's Infero is a ripoff of God of War. 
 
But is this really a bad thing? The latter has brought us hours of super-fun combat mixed with engaging cinematics and an addictive upgrade system. 
 
The difference with Dante's Inferno is that it swaps ancient Greece with the depths of Hell. If all of the above sounds enticing, then run, don't walk to your nearest B&M/online retailer and get yourself a copy of this game.  
 
Having beaten and enjoyed all three chapters of God of War, I found Dante's Inferno to be enjoyable with excellent combat, a tremendous sense of presentation and visual fidelity, along with perfectly adequate upgrade and replayability mechanics.  
 
If you enjoy God of War, don't hesitate - grab this title asap!

 First and foremost, if you are an avid fan of The Divine Comedy, you are going to hate what EA has done to their Dante’s Inferno game. It is as blistered and altered and transformed from the original poem as you feared. I’ve joked before about video gamizing in the past, but Dante’s Inferno really raises the bar to downright sacrilegious levels. But if you avoid taking personal offense to how Dante’s Inferno butchers the legendary work that is The Divine Comedy (and for that matter, the legenda...
