NEW Dante's Inferno 3 min Gameplay Video

Enjoy

honestly, not that impressed.

things I did not like about this gameplay video

- his running animation sucks.

- enemies texture 'feels weak', in the sense that, you dont get that 'meat feel' when you hit them, cant really explain it.

- gameplay is exactly like God of War. yes I know, GoW isnt exactly original, but at least, it tried to seperate itself from the likes of Devil May Cry and Ninja Gaiden, Onimusha, etc. this is looks and plays like a straight GoW clone. honestly, nothng about it differentiates itself from GoW. still some people might like that, and yes, it isnt a bad thing, but I just wanted something a bit different, just my opinion.

I'm loving it! I basically get x2 GOWS in the same year I'm stoked!!

it looks like a combo of god of war and devil may cry. that's awesome

Thanks for the warning at least , but my curiosity got the best of me unfortunately :?

Wow. What a complete rip off of GOW.

Looks good though, i doubt it's gonna be as angry as GOWIII :)

uhm, here's the deal.
BAT THINGS. = god of war.
WEAPONS THAT EXTEND = god of war.
BIG GIANT BOSSES THAT HAS BUTTON INPUT BATTLES = god of war.
COLLECTING DEAD ENEMY's ORBS = god of war.
SLOW MOTION FOR AIR COMBO = god of war.
DANTE's INFERNO < god of war.

I think it looks cool.

Excellent! I'd love another game like GoW.

The game looks great and i've been hyped for this game for a while now but, could this be anymore of a GOW ripoff?? i mean, come on...

Still looking like loads of fun though.

this game looks sweet, i can't wait for it to come out! the only thing that will make this amazing'er is loads and loads of nudity!Renzokucant

There is. In the Lust circle.

That's what people said about their other game, Dead Space; that it was just a rip-off of Resident Evil. But in the end, Dead Space was the better game (at least that's what the majority thinks). Perhaps Dante's Inferno will be better then God of War? Who knows.

I'm more interested in Darksiders at the moment, seems a lot more original with funky artwork.

Me too. I also love the exploring, and the overall adventure aspect of the game.

So many great titles coming out in this genre... GOW3, Dante's Inferno, Bayonetta, Darksiders & Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2...

Pretty awesome GoW mod, Oh wait, its a completely different game? You could have fooled me! But seriously, this is a pretty shameless copy/paste job when it comes to game play from the looks of it. Even the button you have to tap to cut off people's heads is exactly the same as GoW :?II_Seraphim_II

This reminds me of gow and dmc, i has the potential to flop hard or to be a great game :D

Looks good. It copied everything from GOW down to the interface. But, the question remains though...does he get to have a menage a trois?tok1879

"GOW RIP OFF, GOW WAR CLONE."...Just ughhh. I love God of War as well, but it was not the first third person hack n' slash. It may feature similar QTE's and move sets, but that is where the similarities cease. The entire premise of the game is it's own beast entirely and is actually rooted in a literary masterpiece. Meaning it has far more substance to it at it's core than GOW does.

Anyway, why can't people just appreciate each game for what it brings to the table? I can find influence in nearly any game that has an element which was present in another game that came before it. However, as long as the general idea at work, premise and look of the game has it's own unique identity, what is the problem? As far as Dante's Inferno goes in that regard, it is a far cry from GOW.

Inaccurate greek mythology and traversing a modern day, made for a video game interpretation of the 9 circles of hell as described by Dante Alighieri in Inferno from The Divine Comedy?....Hmmm, someone please point out how this is a GOW rip-off. Because I fail to see the similarities aside from a few gameplay elements that are present in a lot of games today, not just GOW.

I'm excited for this don't get me wrong. But I don't get how people say it's going to be better than GOW. I mean only because it IS god of war with a different motif. Still looks killer though.

Why is this in system wars?

I hardly think he has the exact same animations as Kratos and he uses entirely different weapons as well. Wait, he jumps and rolls, too? Oh no, definite GOW clone then. We all know that GOW invented jumping, rolling and stringing togther combo attacks with a bladed weapon in third person hack n' slash games....oh wait.

Looks great, would be ironic if it ends up scoring higher than GOW III :lol:

Does Dante (from DMC) and Kratos jump exactly the same? No. Does this guy jump EXACTLY the same as Kratos? YES. It's a very awkward looking animation, and I've always disliked it. So when I seen it, it was the first thing I noticed. Care to explain the part where he knocks a guy up in the air and jumps up after him was in semi-slow motion, JUST LIKE GOW. DMC has this, but there is not slow motion part. Stop trying to deny that this game looks like a complete rip off of GOW. Nobody is saying the story is similar, because it isn't in any way. The gameplay is.

aaronmullan

I do not have to deny it because I do not run around screaming "clone" at every game that is influenced and uses other gameplay elements that were used before. Using your logic, every FPS today is a rip off of Wolfenstein and Doom. Afterall, they both have you aiming/firing guns in first person EXACTLY like they did. Must be clones and rip-offs then, aye? Give me a break.

I think what people need to understand is that taking a successful formula, and perfecting it, is Visceral games niche. Take a look at Dead Space and Dead Space: Extraction. Dead Space took the gameplay of Resident Evil 4, themes from popular sci-fi movies, added in their own atmosphere, and created one of the best games of 2008. Extraction looks to do the same, except it's a take on the on-rails shooter style of gameplay. Now they are doing the exact same thing with Dante's Inferno, and I have no doubt that the final product will be something highly enjoyable even when compared to the heavy hitters it gets its mechanics from, like GoW3.

Like I said, I guess all shooters are blatant rip-offs of Doom and Wolfenstein. Afterall, it is the same formula, anyone can see it.;) With all due respect, I do not think you have seen nearly enough of the game to prematurely come to the conclusion that it is going to be a copy and paste job. You do not think Visceral will include some of their own gameplay mechanics in the game as well? Come on, man.

Indeed. Maybe some of the other parts will be very different. We've only seen that much of it (I said this exact same thing with the first trailer :lol: )

aaronmullan

I have high hopes for it to be great.

looks like the monster from LOTR

Hmm, looks more appealing to me than God of War.

Well good deal then. That is pretty much my point. There have been many great games that borrow heavily from others that came before it, yet they were able to add enough of their own spin to a proven formula to make the game their own. We know that Visceral is VERY good at doing this, and that is why all this, "clone" talk get's on my nerves. Who is to say they cannot take a tried and true formula and succeed by adding thier own twists to it?
