Dante's Inferno - In this epic quest, you descend to the dreaded nine levels of hell in an effort to save your beloved.
Review Score: 8.8
The story begins gloriously. You go to war with Islam in the Crusades. Your loving wife overworries and makes a deal with the devil himself. If you remain faithful to her in your battles, you come home safely. If you cheat on her with a slave girl, your wife is condemned to eternal suffering.
Although you are a badass fighter, you lose your morals and commit adultery. Reaching home safely, your wife is snatched from your fingers and dragged to the depths of hell forever.
You kill the Death Reaper who also comes for you, steal his legendary Scythe and descend to the lower nine levels of the lake of fire to fight for you beloved. Your ultimate goal: to kill Lucifer.
Of course, as we all know, fighting the devil without God on your side is ultimately futile. You put up a gloriously impressive fight, descending 8 levels with no difficulty.
In the final battle Lucifer kills you with one blow. WHAT????
Although occasionally surprising the journey is mostly predictable. Combat is excellent and tense. Bloody combos constant and beautiful to watch. Sword baby armies will scare the living hell out of most players (babies who die and are not baptized are condemned to hell by Catholic law).
Playing this game is EXACTLY like God of War. This is a good attempt to copy God of War I and II but fails in execution towards the end.
Gameplay: 9.5
Storyline: 8.0
Redundancy (boredome meter) : 5.5
Soundtrack 9.0
Graphics: 3.3
Overall: A copycat God of War. Impressive attempt but ultimate failure
Final Grade: 8.8
