In Games: Dante's Inferno for PS3


From the second you start playing this game, it's non-stop blood, guts, gore and your trusty scythe.  The levels are dark and morbid, but beautifully crafted to represent the circles of hell.  If you don't know the story of Dante, he was a warrior for the crusade whose sins cost him his beloved beatrice to the devil.  Now he has to fight his way through the circles of hell to save her.  My first qualm with this game are that it can almost be too easy.  I beat the game in just four days.  The replay value, however, is fairly decent, as you can start at the beginning but keep all your talents you've learned and keep leveling up more to become god-like.  Until recently, I had never played the "God of War" series.  After playing "God of War III," I realized that "Dante's Inferno" is a poor man's version at best.  Still, the game is fun to play, and if you don't compare the two side by side, it's definitely worth at least a rental from gamefly.

★★★☆☆
