Dante's Inferno

$19.99 Released March, 2010

The Pros:Creative storytelling though CGI, anime-like animation and in-game sequences. Good mix of puzzles, platform gameplay and fighting - keeps players from getting too bored with monotonous gameplay. Upgradable powers by absolving or punishing enemies once defeated.

The Cons:Often way over the top - takes violence and nudity in video games to new exploitative heights. Gameplay has been seen before though the God of War series - nothing new or equally exciting / well done. Enemy and level designs become less inspired as the game progresses - painful to play by the end.

Dante's Inferno is a third-person action adventure game developed by Visceral Games and published by Electronic Arts in the first quarter of 2010 for Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and Playstation Portable. It is based on Dante Aligheri’s epic poem, ‘Divine Comedy’, and in fact involves playing as Dante, a veteran of the Crusades.

Dante's Inferno by PriceGrabber.com

The player must dig into the pits of Hell in his quest to save his beloved Beatrice from Lucifer’s grasp. In many ways, Dante’s Inferno is kind of like a third-person version of the popular top-down game Diablo. Whereas users in Diablo controlled his/her character from above, Dante’s Inferno allows for a more realistic experience by following the character of Dante from behind. In fact, users describe Dante’s Inferno as a cross between God of War and Diablo. Dante’s Inferno is played via a GamePad.

Omar: It's boxing day in Canada, and even though I said I wasn't going to be spending much money Rogers Plus was having an INSANE deal where you buy 1 used game and get 2 used games for free. Yes, BUY 1 GET 2 FREE!

Being a mega gamer, how could I turn down such a deal?
