  • Fun Game!

  • To march into Hell and kick ass. That's something very few of us would ever be willing to do.

  • yeah true

  • I hate to say this because i don't want to be one of those people but....

    10 people went to hell.

  • I've played this game, and you know what, this game is so weak.

  • @CaptainPeliKen dude this game kicks ass

  • @iamtheprev But it's weak.

  • Comment removed

  • this game made me a better person.

  • @farcry2outlaw how?

  • @TaterTot971 its shows you what hell is like

  • so...wait...dante aligheri, the AUTHOR, steals death's sythe, goes to hell, and kicks satans ass. im sorry, im not comprehending XD

  • @Shifter337 in the book he is just a poet being guided if you ask me thats a really fucking gay game so they flipped the switch and made Dante into a bad ass holy warrior during the crusades hes girl (beaitrice) bet her soul on Dante to be faithful while he was away in the crusade but he wanted some cheeks and little did he know when she dies she must spend the rest of eternity as the devils girl so he gets pissed at this and says fuck that and kills everything in hell wooo... everything clear?

  • 1:48

    Deimos?

    I think you were with Tanatos XDD

  • Wow that's really fucking religious. Is the book so?

  • @AlexMercer17 not really hes just walks through hell tells you in detail what happens to you in hell when you commit certain sins for example murder you must spend the rest of your days in a river of boiling blood up to your eye lids now tell that makes you not want to murder but its a really good book a bit confusing but read the foot notes and your good that book changed my whole out look on life and sining

  • IT WAS ALTAIR WHO STABBED DANTE IN HIS BACK!

  • Guys, they fucked it all up. The book is nothing like this, so yes you can call me a retard, say to go away if I dont like it, but Im just saying they screwed it up.

  • @DrRoflXD yeah i was kinda wondering, cause its supposed to be about hell and about god and stuff like that

  • I go tho Hell and back for those graphics in the actual game -_-

  • epic game- one of my favorites

  • dude i just saw thius book on a bookstore and now its a game!!!!!!COOL!

  • Spill the blood of... what?

  • @JSPumpkinKing Heathens

  • @skeletor1993

    What are... Heathens?

  • @JSPumpkinKing is a blanket term used to refer to various polytheistic, non-Abrahamic religious traditions. Its exact definition may vary.[2] It is primarily used in a historical context, referring to Greco-Roman polytheism as well as the polytheistic traditions of Europe before Christianization.

  • @skeletor1993

    I see then. Thanks

  • A really good game w8 for it!!!

  • this game is beautiful!!!! :)

  • @kriminil1 what movie you dumbfucking bot?

  • dang man... why not putting this game on pc?

  • because this game is so good everyone will download it instead of buying it :/

  • can someone convince me that this game is worth buying..

    srsly, please

  • @OneLoneLegend Was protested at E3 '09 by religious folks, 3rd person game play, based off a real epic poem, and looks like it'll play like GoW1/2 going through 9 rings of hell setting. Not to mention it looks like it has pretty cool models and music choices / voice actors are neat.

  • i did some research the protest was fake, setup to promote the game and provoke questions.

    Seems to much like god of war, darksiders & bayaneta.

    buy Mass effect 2 for an amazing game.

  • interesting about the protest, o well, probably going to pirate this game like i did ME2. i don't feel like buying any more games since my last bought game was borderlands, in such we pc'ers got fucked over by it. btw, you shouldn't judge a game till you've played it, i'm sure a lot of games mimic other games, but is that so bad? they're bringing a new story line aswell as models, voices, weapons, etc to the table.

  • i have the game and its seriously awesome the combos and the monsters look so cool there is downable content soon such as a prequle lev more comat moves and much more

  • God Of war anyone??

  • 10/10 IGN

  • Pre ordered Death Edition :D

    Go to HELL!!!

  • this game is interesting and awesome, i like this games inspirated in the hell.

    dante alighieri rulezzzzzzz

  • @tothboy01 i totally agree

    if christians aren't happy with it, ban it for all christians.

  • This game reminds me of the God of War series. I want to play this game so bad. And I can't wait until March when God of War 3 comes out.

    I'm an atheist and I think that Christianity, along with Judaism and Islam are all mythology and superstition, no different from, say, Greek mythology, Egyptian mythology, Norse mythology, etc. So I don't have any problems playing a game like this. To me, it's just another cool looking action game.

  • This game will kick ass. I love the demo

  • The structure of Hell is taken directly from the poem, although the character of Dante and his "quest" have been tweaked to make it more epic. Basically Dante fights through 9 levels of hell to save his love, Beatrice.

  • you look gay

  • just like ur dad

  • awso! but may someone please tell me about the main story please? sorry people are always talking about this game so i looked up the trailers a while ago may someone please tell me about the main story? sorry

  • Looks beautiful. Btw the is bout comedy or not?

  • loosely based on it.

  • dante's inferno or bioshock 2 which is better

  • D.I FTW!!!

  • both are gonna be amazing!

  • dantes inferno

  • The game looks good, but it has nothing to do with the Divine Comedy that Dante Alighieri wrote.

  • It has a little to do with what Dante wrote.

    Such as the nine levels of Hell.Also you can't make a very good game were all you do is play a dude that just talks to people and faints.You have to change something about it.

  • @dominickkk5 yeah wheres virgil????

  • this looks like god of war

  • oh HELLS yes

  • god of war isn't even that great. dmc is so much funner. god of war is just a button masher

  • Despite the heavy trolling on EA's part as far as advertising and concept go, this game looks awesome. And by 'concept', I of course mean 'name it after a book, then have it barely relate to the original work.'

    Still, looks great. I'll probably grab it.

  • looks pretty wack, just read the book

  • we'll see wether this can actually catch up with GOW. dmc and bayonetta are unreachable of course

  • Bayonetta's not even out yet.

  • 1:08 .. omg just look at her face! xD

  • GOW is a better game

  • is it commedy game?

  • God of war is based on greek myth and legend, dantes based on european myth and legend-not nesseraly christian

  • good of war clone aleart

  • 360 needs a GOW clone because we all know Microsoft will never have GOW on its list. GOW Director said so himself.

  • And we get a christian version/copycat of God of war..

  • god of war...ish?

  • where be the gameplay?!?

  • What in the FUCK is the plot of this game?!?! like i have absolutely no idea what the fuck i just saw!!

  • In the book, Dante goes to the Inferno himself to save his lover.

  • when i read it, i got the impression that he goes to hell to essentially cleanse his spirit so that he may pass to paradise to be with Beatrice...

    game looks pretty awesome but it seems a bit removed from the original story I'd say...

  • you're so wrong, you must read the book, Dante has to pass the Inferno, but he didn´t have to save Beatrice, she´s in the paradise

  • Read the book

  • Im not going to read it again.

  • It's based on an old poem i don't the whole story but basically the woman he loves gets taken to hell and u go after her to save her!

  • i'm confused. never thought they would turn dantes inferno into a videogame. and now that they have, its nothing like the original. i have little faith this will be a good game.

  • lol i when i saw Go to hell

    i was like: fuck you!

  • Divine Comedy... Last time I checked... Dante wasn't wielding a scythe... Or dating anyone... Or ripped.... But then again... It wasn't as totally kick ass and brutal as I remembered....

  • divine comedy....this should be interesting.

  • the most original game ever! based off of a book made in the 14th century...badass

  • If you don't like it... go to hell XD

  • it looks cool :)

  • Mmmm.. if you have read the Divine Comedy, I find that this game might be a little frightening... can't wait.

  • looks alright but seems like its trying to be a God of War game which it will never come close to being!

  • thats ok. i saw one of the behind the scenes of this and one of the guys of the god of war was recruited for this game. so :D

  • How the fuck do u know that dickhead?

  • dude i'm not sayin this is gunna b a bad gamei played the demo and seems pretty sweet but nothing can compare to God of War!

  • God of war blows

  • @dawgbizkit123 dude... the people who made god of war made this........ personally, i think this has a better storyline. thats just my opinion

  • @darkxzero13

    You sure? GoW's not made by EA.

  • @JSPumpkinKing god of war is made by santa monica studios and dantes inferno is made by ea just to clarfiay things

  • @adad87821 rlly? i thought they were made by the same people. they are so much alike.

  • @darkxzero13 its based of a book

  • mint. 1:48... leonidass¿?¿??

    xdxd son clavadoos xdxd

  • looks similar to God of War

  • as long as it follows the book somewhat it could be cool.

  • wow and a bunch of game blogers are geting checks from EA worth 200$ and the checks are real and there saying about the 4th ring of hell

  • 1:20 ooh we see her nipples lol

  • Dante's scythe looks like Eclipse Scythe from NG2 but much longer.

  • a divine comedy what so funny about going to hell

  • haha funny.

  • Applause for you

    FAIL

  • It's not meant to be taken literally. More or less a possible reference to "God has a sick sense of humor sometimes", at least that's how I interpret it. Like, for example, let's say a man breaks his leg trying to save someone else from breaking theirs - that could be called a Divine Comedy. Again, that's just how I interpret it. The book itself might be called so for a different reason.

  • Is that sarcasm? "Comedy" had a different meaning back when it was written by Dante Alighieri centuries ago.

  • god of war anyone?

  • i totally agree

  • im sure it sucks

  • is this game on wii

  • GO DANTE

  • looks epic, sounds epic, is epic...so its not for the Wii I'm guessing?

  • well, then it wouldnt be so epic =)

  • first...it has NOTHING to do with with the Dante from DMC...this game is based on "The Divine Comedy" writen by the italian writer Dante Alighieri that reprezentes hell is 9 diverite circles and also shows the purgatory and heaven...so no...Dante's Inferno has Nothing to do with Devil May Cry

  • the game looks like it has nothing to do with the divine comedy though.. I mean, beatrice is is supposed to be in heaven, and where is Virgil!?

  • u dont understand...the game dosent copy the Divine Comedy...the main idea was taken...the rest is video game developer "magic"...all that's left is to see if the "magic" is all that great

  • i know, it's "loosely based" on the main theme. I just wish they'd make one that actually tries to replicate the book.. That would be awesome.

  • yea man no kidding. that would be like.. the best game ever!

  • in that case i can avoid watching.. thanks :D

  • So easy for EA to come out with this game called "Dante's Inferno" when the idea has been already structured by a genius. Duh. The game looks wicked though and a bit scary, kinda creapy. The designers must be morbid people with out an idea of thier own.

  • Uhh..what?

  • Wtf??: In an effort to promote the title at last week's San Diego Comic-Con event, EA decided to run a contest asking showgoers to "commit acts of lust" with any models working at the convention's myriad booths. They were then instructed to submit photos via social networking sites like Twitter or Facebook. The winner would receive "dinner and a sinful night with two hot girls, a limo service, paparazzi and a chest full of booty,"

  • WTF

  • bad choice of weapon. It was like the weapon seemed entirely out of place. Maybe if it was scale a bit smaller, or had a ribcage and a skill attached.

  • maybe they should've made some epic sword, or an axe..

  • he killed The Grimm Reaper and took his scythe -.- enough said

  • purgatory video game?

  • hmmm....looks cool. Too bad it's stupid. Spend more time on story, please!

  • This is a book to game translation.

  • I understand that....except that it doesn't look ANYTHING like the book. And "you'll never get the girl!"....really? [groan]

  • Why did they have to call it Dante's Inferno? It's nothing like the book. Will Vergil be in it? Be kinda funny if it had Dante from Devil May Cry in it at some point.

  • This is nothing like the Divine Comedy,.. what a shame.

  • people seem to think that god of war was the first ever third person action game...

  • This is a book turned into a game

  • actually Dante couldn't even touch the dead souls, so we should forget thw whole Divine Comedy to enjoy the game ;D

    however, i want some Vergil in this game...i loved "lo duca mio" so much!

  • devil may cry x god of war= dante´s inferno

  • yep devil may cry 3 story is DANTE DESCENT HELL and god of war as the gameplay

  • cough* god of war* cough* rippoff* cough*

  • so...? do you want one game or many games?

  • what do you mean?

  • i mean so what if it is a ripoff, the more (games alike) the merrier

  • Yeah, now we're getting the opposite side.

  • In god of war, he was fighting against the gods. Here, dante is fighting what I presume to be some demons/devil in hell.

    Opposite side of the spectrum.

  • oh ok now i understand but i don't like this game gonna give me nightmares!!!

  • Not gonna lie the book was hard to read, not for the fact it was written in Old English but of the very descriptive grotesque nature of Dante's writing. Also each of the 9 circles gets worse as Dante goes further. Be sure to have nightmares.

  • the book basically follows two poets Dante and Virgil as they travel through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven/Paradise. Divine Comedy is the story of Dante's quest to free his love. This book was also the base for the Devil May Cry series.

  • Divine Comedy is one of the greatest literary works the humanity ever created..... i thought everyone knew...... ?

  • i dont get it seems cool lol

  • it says that it is the divine comedy video game what does that mean..

  • Looks awesome,Still i wish the game aint like the begining with thoose 2 poor people screaming like that

  • this is truly the tightest game ive seen in a while. you have to read the book to understand the story!

  • Can someone explain to me what happened in the beginng? Were those people like trapped in tree stumps or somthing?

  • all I know is that that circle of Hell is about Lust...

  • Actually I believe that circle is Gluttony. In the third circle all the souls are imprisoned in a slush made of black ash, freezing rain and hail, which looks like the stuff they are trapped in to me.

  • that's a good possibility

  • yes indeedy

  • Yes, short movies with no point but special effects are one thing, but what about the gameplay and actual screenshots?

  • Whoa...

  • so far ...'yawn'...hopefully it will get better.

  • well, looks like my burning soul will have a pretty goddamn good time.........:D

  • 1:27 shows more of the gameplay we can expect in this game.

    shos Holy cross combo's and such.

  • its like super mario except replace bowser with the devil.

  • lol indeed it is :P

  • It feel like hell, everthing shall feel like wrong, a nightmare.

    But i see how they made that some peploe are lying there screaming puished.

    (Thats the part i don't like.)

  • I dont see how this is a comedy game i mean it is meant to be one

  • Comedy was a different term when Dante was around. It meant the writing was about the common people. Dramas were reserved for "heros" like in the Iliad. Until around Shakespeare's time anyway.

  • You know, this looks cool and all, but i wish it would be more of a survival game, something more closely related to the actual book. instead of a God of War, bad ass, ripping through hell game. which is a cool idea, but since its based on such a classic and critically upheld piece of literature, i really believe that it should've done a better job of giving it justice. Beatrice isn't even IN hell in the book... he doesn't even meet beatrice till the third book. oh well, looks fun anyway...

  • Read about the Divine Comedy in wikipedia. Mostly just about the Inferno. That book seems great, but gives me chills up my spine the way hell is depicted in the nine circles...makes me think of all the bad shit I've done.

    But yeah, this game looks great. I want it
