Dante's Inferno GS review - 6.5

Haha a cheap mans God of War :roll: :lol:

I love how people sit here and attack GS's reviewers... as though they know what they are talking about.

[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]Nice. Mention it once, then.

The entire review had me thinking I clicked on a GoW review, then I saw the score and noticed this is indeed DI.

Review the damn game in front of you. I don't want to hear about this or that. Let's bring up Doom every single time we review a modern day FPS, too. Heck, let's bring it up ten times in a single video review.

God, I felt like pulling my eardrums out down through my backside. This is amongst the worst review I've watched.

Yes, it's a clone. Yes, it's not on GoW's level. Yes, it's not as good as it should have been. But geez louise, cool it and review this game for what it is. Don't repeat the same **** over and over again.

No disrespect to the reviewer, as I usually tend to like his reviews, but this isn't the top notch material I'm used to from you.

they really were.

although things do tend to get blown out of porportion when you are upset about a game flopping.

Just finished reading and watching the video review. I don't think the God of War mentions went overboard. I think the reviewer judged the game on itself fair enough but it's hard not to make the comparison to God of War when it borrows so heavily from it. Not in a flattering way it seems. I don't know, I didn't have fun with the demo and probably won't pick Dante's Inferno up for awhile or at all.

What does this mean for God of War, when a game that plays almost exactly like it gets such a score. themyth01

Tom McShea is on a flopping spree! Keep him away from GOW3 Kevin!Episode_Eve

I've incurred quite the wrath this week, eh? What can I say, White Knight and Dante's both had serious issues. I had fun with both games, but they aren't ultimately "good" games and could not recommend them to the majority of players. I'm crossing my fingers for something better next week!

Sweet! Velvet Assassin smoked Dante's Inferno!BioShockOwnz

I may be the biggest fan of Velvet Assassin in the world, and I'm darn proud of that!

I wonder if they will say negative things about God of War 3 if it doesn't do anything different from the previous two games. I still think they will give GoW3 a 9.5. I wanted an alternative for GoW but I guess DI isn't going to cut it.gago-gago

God of War III will be held to the same standard. God of War II is one of the finest games I have ever played, but it's a three-year-old PS2 game. If GoWIII doesn't make a sizable leap, you can be sure our review will point that out.

it never looked good.

After I played the demo for this game, I thought it was going to be at least a 7.

At least I don't feel so bad about WKC now :P

But that's a shame though. I didn't really care for the demo, but I never want to see games flop.

Guess I'll be picking this one up much further down the road then I anticipated.

I don't think it is a fair review for DI.You don't review a game comparing another game.........god of War this...god of War that and that.The game is good and it is worth 8~8,5.DI have get 8.8 from Digital Chumps......i have see many gameplay videos for this game and i don't think 6,5 it is a fair score for DI.

[QUOTE="Panosola"][QUOTE="Kevin-V"] A game that shamelessly copies another invites itself to be compared. Our job is to put a game in context, and making comparisons to the game Dante's Inferno essentially copies is a perfectly valid action. But the comparisons to GoW aren't nearly as plentiful as you would have us think ;). I notice, however, that you didn't link to, say, 1UP's review, or IGN's. Is that because they don't support your claim, while the Digital Chumps review does? I can pick a non-GameSpot review and make it support my opinion too!NAPK1NS

I knew this game was gonnoa blow, the demo was horrible and a rip off of GOW and wasnt even that good of a rip off at that.

I wasnt fond of the graphics either,, Ill just stick to bayonetta and GOW for my two action games.,

It's a 95% rip off of GoW, and it screws up a classic piece of literature. 6.5 sounds about right.Parasomniac

What the ...

Biggest disappointment in a long time for me. I actually defended this game a lot.

Man, I expected this to get the Dead Space quality treatment but EA apparently didn't allow that.

Very suprising, I expected an 8.0, maybe a 7.5, a 6.5 is very suprising indeed.

Maybe here the game have score 6,5 but the game have get many good reviews on metacritic.I don't think a 6,5 it is a fair score for this game.....there is a lot worst games out.DI at least worth a 7,5~8.

Dantes Inferno looks like a sega saturn game compared to GOW3. lol @ people who defended this game

i played the demo and i found it a great game, i was expecting 8.0 here

I like how people were like 'omg this game looks SO AWESOME' before and now they're like 'haha omg told u so lololol'.

:|

system wars...sigh.

there is something seriously wrong with 2010 ............ i expected 7 or 7.5 ............... flop after a flop, may be i need to have a break from the forum.

Also I love how they take off points from DI for "repetitive combat" even though its basically the same as God of War's. Juggernaut140

Yeah they're not too far off. Been playing it for some time now and it is underwhelming. The movepool is limited to only a few attacks (well the beginning anyway), enemies are recycled too much, boss fights are really mediocre, not much replay value and it from what I've heard it's short. Really short.

And believe it or not, they actually advertised the future DLC in the game. Like it's even in the main menu. It just shows how lazy and greedy EA is starting to become.

GOW3 killer? Absolutely not.

I was hyped for this until I played the demo and then I was hoping the demo was just unfinished and unpolished. I guess the game is just not that good. I'll still pick it up when it's 20$.

A lot of flops this year so far. And everyone of them, I really didn't care for at all.

He seems to hit this game pretty hard for having similar gameplay. Odd, because I feel GS has given out some high scores to games that do just that.

Fighting on platforms though... wow, they must have ran out of time or ideas.
