Re: Dante's Inferno - 2/9/10
I've played both of these demos, and I was far more impressed with Dante's Inferno even though they're essentially the same game.
I don't know that I'll be able to get this on release day, but I'll definitely buy it before I pick up GoW.

I'd agree that the Icarus wing updraft part was a bummer, but besides that everything in the GoW3 demo just felt so much better to me. And let's not forget that GoW demo is actually 8 months old now.

To be fair, you were warned.

Ruh Rho. The Embargo is lifted, and reviews are coming out...

http://ps3.nowgamer.com/reviews/ps3/9022/dantes-inferno - 8/10 (ps3) I didn't see why, likely just different reviewers

5 hours long? Yeah, I'll wait for this to hit the bargain bin.

This made me chuckle -
"something made particularly evident in the circle of Fraud, an uncharacteristically lazy level made up of challenge rooms within a series of identical arenas"

Re: Dante's Inferno - 2/9/10
I was really going back and forth on whether or not I would order the super duper PS3 version.
But now I think I'll wait for the bargain bin as well.
Thanks for posting the review links.

Reading those reviews, they seem a little generous with their scoring. I'm curious how the big boys score it.
Have you noticed that every EA Games new console IP somehow drops to $20 within 6-9 months? At that price I'll pick it up, but no way I'll get it yet.
On a related front, we can get Brutal Legend for $20 after 2/15 using your Best Buy Gamer's card. I'll probably spring for that.

Here's Gamepro - http://www.gamepro.com/article/revie...antes-inferno/ 4/5
PROS: Worthwhile combat sequences and excellent level design are the highlights in this devilish tale.
CONS: It doesn't carry the emotional or moral weight that it should; for a game set in Hell, it's surprisingly bland.

I'd definitely get Brutal Legend for $20. Too bad I don't have a gamer's card.

I can get this from EA for $20, but at this point it sounds like it's not worth my time, especially with GoW III coming out soon.

The score was relatively low, but the narrative didn't match up with the score, IMO, and made it sound like an 8.5 game. I'm still not regretting my preorder on this, though that may change when I actually play it.
