Been playing the game for about 2 days and I am quite impressed the graphics and detail is just absolutely amazing the gameplay is very fun but easy to getusedtomy impressions are that it's a great game that should really get the credit it deserves as opposed to the crap ratings it been gettingby MOST.

Thoughts?

Krimson, are you going to make a thread for every single game you've played? Starting to get ridiculous with the amount of threads.You could've easily made them all into 2 threads, or even 1 instead of clogging up the boards.

I enjoyed it a lot, the art design was quite outstanding, and combat was fluent and fun. Overall 8.5/10 from me :)

On of my fav. this generation. There is rarely a game which delivers so much atmosphear and playing the Game in a dark room with a surround system is an epic experience

What other threads has he made so far? This is the first one I've seen so far. By the way, I have yet to play this game. It looks decent, but I'm more excited for God of War 3.

So far I find it to be alot of fun. It's a bit over shadowed by it's comparisons to God Of War, but all in all a highly recommended purchase.

Absolutely ugly visuals but great art style. Combat is enjoyable, and the magics and dual trees of upgrades help it from getting overly stale too quickly. The story starts off really interesting, then kinda nosedives around the middle portion (I think I lost interest around Gluttony). The boss fights so far have done nothing but improve for the most part, from the extremely underwhelming fight with Death. The level design and sound effects though are top notch.... really they're what's keeping me playing. So twisted and oddly satisfying.

What I feel people have forgotten was that the lead designer on God of War made a joke video where he was in prison for ripping off all the good ideas from Devil May Cry and Capcom finally busted him for it. The thing was though, that GoW did almost all of them much better. Dante's does almost everything the same. Literally the same. And then does a whole bunch of things worse. While GoW built up to some epic endings like battling through the sister's of fate rooms etc. Dante's ending is shockingly bad and deserves a 2.5 point demerit straight away. Then it needs a further 1 point demerit for the simply appalling plagiarism which surely somebody over at Volition has to answer for. 6.8 it gets from me (+0.3 because I just like the genre).

I just completed it. I'd give it over-all a 7.0/7.5 or so. The segment called "Malebolge" lasts 10 rooms, and is a succession of challenges designed to test your abilities before the finl boss, and offer up bonus souls if you complete the challenges objectives in a timely manner. What t ACTUALLY was is ridiculously boring, easy, and monotonous I almost wanted to quit before I finished them... the ending was pretty weak too, like a Soap opera or something.

ive been on the fence for a while now about this one. seems that ppl overall like it. i heard the puzzles (or lack of) are kinda a joke. is that true?

i always thought that was the glue that held games like this together. that and epic boss battles.

The puzzles are definitely weak. There wasn't a single one that took more then a minute. And the boss fights, especially the final one, are nothing awe inspiring either.... As far as I can tell, it's all about the atmosphere and art design with this game. If you like the combat style too, it's golden.

I have the game un opened right now.. I'm just waiting to finish Gow for the ps3 then move to Dantes. I also heard a lot of people giving this game bad reviews just because it is just like GOW..but first who cares if the gameplay is the same... GOW was one of the best games ever made..ever single racing game is the same..imfamous, prototype are very similar to Grand Theft auto, but no one made a big deal about hat. Gamers should just play the game and base there opinion on how much fun they have while playing it. Plus the guy who made GOW 1-2 left the god of war series and created Dantes Inferno, so the fighting style and game play was his original idea anyway.

I'm having a lot of fun with the game so far. I'm at Lady Fortuna and the game just keeps getting better. The atmosphere in the game is incredible. Combat is fun and I like the 2 skill trees. So far 8.5-9/10.

If I did one for every game I played in all 16 years of my life you have no idea how insane that would be. usually when I rent a new game depending on the game I will make one about it I.E right now I am playing white knight chronicles but I don't intend to ask about that.

"Classic" and "Hellish" are completely two different game. Remember that winged demon? in Classic, one hit knocks a tiny bit of life where as in hellish gets 4/5 of your upgraded life bar. Yeah try play a game on a higher difficulty level sometimes for a change.

My original score was a 9 but the last chapter, where you meet the 10 challenges reduce it to a 8.5. The camera work sometimes is just awful. When you have multiple enemies scattered allover the screen, the camera doesn't pan out at all, so you have no idea what is coming at you. Many enemies have block breaking moving and usuallly those moves can 1-2 hit KO you on hellish and above, so it is no longer fair. I am really ok with the combat that doesn't allow you to stop a combo, but fighting blindly is definitely an oversight
