GameShard have posted their review of Visceral Games' Dante's Inferno:
"Dante's Inferno simply doesn't deliver on its potential. There's a decent story in here somewhere, hampered by haphazard telling, and whilst the combat is satisfying and polished it doesn't do nearly enough to differentiate itself from its peers, and the exploration is pretty much a write off due to irregularly placed checkpoints and wobbly handling. With the likes of last month's Darksiders and Bayonetta to contend with, and God of War 3 on the way, your money and time could be better spent elsewhere."
There are good video game protagonists, and there are bad video game protagonists.
I disagree that max is unlikable. Chloe is infinitely more unlikable in my opinion.
Most of these aren't even that bad. Especially comparing to others like Squall "Whatever" Leonhart, Forspoken's Frey, and the guy from Atomic Heart.
i had to stop reading after the "blatant misogyny" in the Dantes inferno section.
i actually liked Max haha.
the forspoken chick is missing tho
Grab your katana, and slice your way through this list featuring the best hack and slash games the PlayStation 3 had to offer.
Dante's inferno... an excellent GoW inspired game. So sad the sequels will never be.
heavenly sword was such a short, but amazing game. that game should be prime material to be made into a download only remaster.
I really enjoyed Castlevania, but struggled to get into it again reattempting it a few years back. I still think it does another of things well; story, presentation, level varietily and art style at least. Gameplay maybe has not stood test of time unfortunately which makes it a chore to get through.
Dante's Inferno at 4K 60FPS!
Sad this may never get the sequel it deserves. It's still one of the best GoW clones around.
I would love to revisit my old PS3 games played at a higher framerate and resolution. UC2, TLOU, GOW3, KZ2 & 3, Demon Souls
This game is getting crucified like hell. (pun intended)
I still wanna play it, reviews be damned!
I'll wait for God of War III.
Troll_Police is right. If you own a PS3, just save your money for GOW III.
Just because the game has tons of blood and violence doesn't mean it's going to be good. You know why it's fun? Because it is a clone of GOW!
Buy the GOW Collection...$30 vs $60...GOW COLLECTION WINS!
the demo in my opinion was ok but they did play the full game so ouch
