My only complaint about the game was a couple frustrating jump sequences based off the camera angles. There have been numerous references to GOW and that is not a bad thing at all however it is easier from combat to puzzles than GOW and the "no camera control" is no different than GOW. I am on my second playthrough of the game just to know out the rest of my trophies as it is impossible to knock them out in one playthrough. It is easy however to locate all collectable items, there is absolutley no need to purchase the guide for this game, assuming you are one who would normally purchase a guide. You will have to play through the game atleast twice in order to max out both the Holy and Unholy paths, not a huge deal as the game is very enjoyable and worth playing more than once. Once you beat the game the first time you will unlock the Gates of Hell arena (50 levels of increasing difficulty that you have to play though in order to unlock that trophy). There is also multiple add-ons for the game to include 10,000 souls which is nice to start a game off with as this is what you use to purchase abilities based on the path you choose (Holy or Un-Holy), you can also download the Dark Forest area which is a medium difficulty puzzle Prequel you will need to beat to unlock 2 additional Trophies. Overall I very much enjoyed this game and would recommend it especially for those if us that are pineing for the GOW III releaseRead full review
Game Description : A classic work of literature becomes a sinister action saga in this game inspired by Dante's "The Divine Comedy." Journey through the nine levels of Hell on a quest to save your beloved from the jaws of the underworld. Italian soldier-for-hire Dante returns from war to find his Beatrice murdered, and her soul dragged below. Confront the darkness of your own past as you fight to save her soul. Battle demons with the Reaper's scythe, wield holy powers, tame beasts, and more. Survive limbo, lust, gluttony, greed, anger, heresy, violence, fraud, and treachery and you shall be rewarded...with a confrontation with Lucifer himself. Abandon hope all ye who enter here! My Review : " Hmmm....where to start with this one ? This game has a well thought out story line and pretty good graphics, plus very detailed cinematics (minus Lucifer's enormous male anatomy). I could have really done without seeing that ! I found th...e controls to be OK due to having many different fighting combo upgrades, holy and/or unholy. The controls did ... See Morehowever later on become quite annoying, having to hit circle over and over again to achieve the simplest things. I also found this game to be very unoriginal in many different aspects. Bottom line - If Uncharted 2 and God of War 3 had a baby, this would be it. Best part about this game, easy trophies ! My final score....4 stars. "Read full review
Dante's Inferno is a great game in its own right. Sure, it's nearly a complete rip of the more polished "God of War" series, but there's something appealing to beating the living Hell out of, well, Hell. The CGI-animation is top notch during cutscenes, and in-game has decent enough graphics. Gameplay is fluid, and once you understand the fighting system, it turns into a refined button smasher. Best of all, once you have beaten the game, you can start over with all of your abilities still unlocked. The ability system has some depth to it, and it's rewarding to play through again to unlock all of the things that you weren't able to before. Most of the magic abilities are useful, and the cross attack comes in more handy than you would think. The only complaints I have focus around the trivial difficulty settings and a few in-game challenges. Changing the difficulty of the game doesn't make the enemies faster or more cunning; instead the only thing that changes is damage dealt and recieved. That is, you die quicker and they require more beating. On the normal difficulty, things are repetitive enough, but adding in an extra 20 hits to an enemy makes it downright frustrating. You didn't really outsmart Death any more on the second go, you simply beat him twice as hard. There are a few times that the game's difficulty jumped up an unnessecary notch; at times, you can derail from the main path and try to find hidden treasures, but some of these areas seem impossible to get to. At other times the fighting seems to be too challenging for that area, only to die in the next and start back fighting from square one. Other than that, the game is great and definitely worth the money, just be warned: there are graphic images and full nudity.Read full review
Those who know me know I LOVE (that other game)'s 1st release. The second-not as much...but the 3rd was just down right awful. But that's just my opinion. Dante' on the other hand, has its own story, and I might add it's a good one. Controls could have been better if they were also copied, but it is what it is. The graphics were some of the best ever offered in a H&S single player game. Making a big deal about its similarities to another game is like knocking the CAMRY versus its LEXUS alter ego...lift the hood, and you'll see the exact same engine with very few exceptions that really make a difference. That being said-If given a choice between a FREE copy of the 3rd Version of (that other game) and a $20 copy of Dante'.......I would choose DANTE' hands down!
I bought this game a week ago after seeing the reviews. I was impressed with the detail of the game and the graffics. It is as good as I expected. The game also plays very well with very little glitches. It is a moderately difficult to challenging game to beat with average skills. I however would recommend a guide book to find all the hidden treasures. It plays similar to Castlevania and Uncharted which is what I liked about it. I do not like the unnecessary nudity and sexuality in it. There is(allot)of it and I don't recommend this for any young children or teens. The constant dead people moaning noises can also get very annoying after a short time. Overall a little more demonic than I would like, but a fun game. I would recommend it but it is very important to watch the content in front of younger viewers.Read full review
