Dante's Inferno demo on PSN Dec. 10, XBLM Dec. 24

by Justin McElroy on Dec 1st 2009 2:00PM

There are plenty of beloved Christmas Eve traditions observed across the globe. Whether it's roasting chestnuts or watching the Christmas Story marathon, everyone's got a different way of marking the arrival of St. Nick. EA's hoping that the 360 owners among you will start a brand new, equally-sentimental tradition as it releases a demo of Dante's Inferno for XBLM on Dec. 24. The sample includes the entire first level of Dante's demonic journey into hell and goes great with eggnog.

Those preferring PSN will get the demo on Dec. 10, a date which has the dual benefit of (1) being two weeks earlier and (2) not making the baby Jesus cry.

Now to compare the GOW3 Demo with this demo

Also I found the last sentence offensive....

Get over it then.

Hey you kill babies in this game right? So a crying fictional baby is the least of your concerns. :p

Welcome to the internet. Where "serious" is our middle name.

dude, today's (internet) populace is pretty anti-religion. just do like i do; take snarky comments in stride and move on. unless you feel threatened by them there's no reason to take serious offense.

Obie, Jesus is real. Whether he was a prophet is not my concern. What you should of mentioned is that fact that Dec 24th is not really even his real B-day. Marry (early) winter solstice everyone ;)

save it atheist, I just found the comment offensive
dont come and start with your elitist attitude of how you know whats real and whats not.

i meant 25th btw before someone points that out :X

Santa is real but Jesus is not.

people like you remind me why I hate religion.

Marius Returns, who fucking cares what you find offensive on an internet blog! Freedom of speech - therefore you can say you're offended and I can say, "who fucking cares".

You don't like it, than join the Liberal or Conservative and try to make a law against it, otherwise, keep reading the blog and learn to fucking deal...

Welcome to the internet dumb ass... you do realize it's been around longer than a week though, right?

The Mighty Thor, did you mean 'should've (should have)' or 'should of'?

The second one literally doesn't work.

I hate religion. The arguing and the fighting, it's just like the internet.

learn to read athiest, i told you to save it

@ Derick

I meant "should have". Typing and saying "Should of" i just a bad habit.

"I hate religion. The arguing and the fighting, it's just like the internet. "
I really hope 2000 or so years from now people will be worshiping internet memes and have lolcat statues.

Sweet, looks like I'll be able to play it before I head off for the holidays.

Oops, damn commenting system.

Wonder how they'll make a controversy over Christmas. Burning a manger on Youtube on Christmas day?

Killing demons on Christmas eve? Kinda goes with my favorite Xmas movie: "Die Hard".

"I have a machine gun now. Ho..ho..ho!"

Someone here listens to Jim Rome on the radio...

First time a game demo releases first on the ps3...good for sony.

Yeah... not true.

why not? every time theres a demo. It always comes first on the xbox..exclude the ps exclusive games. Tell me when a game demo released before the 360

LOL @ Always.

Hilarious.

There's been a few demos that have hit the PSN 1st. Bayonetta, Battlefield Bad Company 2, and a handful of other titles to say this was the 1st time is an exageration

Bayonetta.

Lost Planet 2?

Let's see... Marvel VS Capcom 2, F.E.A.R. 2, Flock and the Battlefield Bad Company 2 beta.

Oh, and Naruto (I think).

Just for the record, when you can name them all and fit them within 4 lines, that's not saying a lot.

Yes, I'm 100% "trolling" today, my bad!

I thought lies made baby Jesus cry.

He's right.

My mama told me that touching myself was what made Baby Jesus cry.

oh lol, releasing a game demo for this on the day before Christmas on XBL

I lol'd

My family watches Die Hard a lot during the holidays. It's our favorite Christmas movie.

Cleavage doesn't make baby jesus cry. You should have gone with this shot.

*runs*

That cleavage makes me want to cry...

Does that count?

Why doesn't Dave Bruel have 3 full hearts yet? Good lord guys.

hey dave who is that sexy beast?

BBC2 demo is out? no, wait... its private demo... public demo will be out same the same day for both consoles

how is a private demo any different from a demo that is exclusive to Gold LIVE members? either way not all of the consoles users can have access to it.

Are you just being funny or is this true?

where are the demos for bayonetta, bbc2 and final fantasy? Are they out yet? nice... i was talking about this been the first. to come out.

Lost planet 2? Bayonetta comes out this week. I'm sure there have been more as well.

The Bayonetta demo is on the Japanese PSN and has been for a few weeks. As for the FF13 that was on the japanese FF:AC bluray. Hence they were on the PS3 1st.

in japan...

yes in Japan, but unlike MS i have multiple accounts that i can easily download any demo in any region. just because it was in the japanese psn store doesnt stop me from being able to have play the demo already.

No, Bayonetta is out thursday in the states. So it's first. In the states.
