Dante's Inferno creators explain 'Violence' in latest dev diary

Dec 11th 2009 11:08AM (Joystiq)
I still dont know why ppl complain. A once famous artist said and i quote :

"A good artist copies, a great artist steals"
Pablo Picasso.

At least EA knew how and what to steal so kudos goes to them.

Dante's Inferno creators explain 'Violence' in latest dev diary

All i've seen recently is "This is a RIP OFF from GOW" , "Oh wow ill rent this but buy GOW" . Seriously comeon.

The theme,feel,story of this game in particular is 200% different from GOW, so what if the combat almost looks the same and the mana and hp containers almost look the same. At least they took something which is good, adapted it to the Divine Comedy and created something fresh.

To be honest i see no reason not to buy this game because:
1- The Background ,set pieces and scenarios are exquisite with alot more detail in the little things than GOW is currently showing me.

2- It based on an original and somewhat controversial piece of literature which is very well adapted for a game like this. Dont get me wrong i love greek mythology.

3- The combat almost looks like GOW but in all honesty which game nowadays doesnt copy something and there is not 1 weapon copied from GOW. Who in there right minds doesnt want to wield a gigantic scythe and slice there enemies in two.

4- The animation, physics and motion applied to all enemies and bosses in this game are so good it almost makes me wanna cry with joy.

5- There are so many different kinds of enemies than any other game ive seen so far in 2009 mainly because lets face it, its 9 lvls from HELL.

6- This game has the capacity to spawn a sequel in the following setting : Circles of Heaven.

Analyst calls for PS3 price cut, Sony says no thanks

First time commenting here. Jaw7385 , seriously "and with new games like Gears of War 2 and Fable 2 being console exclusives, its hard to see the PS3 being the dominant console this holiday season.". Im trying not to burst into tears from your comment. So what if Gears of War 2 and Fable 2 are the "only" console exclusives to XBOX360 this Xmas. PS3 will get LBP,SOCOM (mind you with a brand new headset), Valkyria Chronicles, Resistance 2, MotorStorm Pacific Rift, The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, MotoGP 08, Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm and a few others on the PSN. Now if a player is open-minded in buying/playing all these games i simply think that PS3 will be more than enough for him/her till the end of this year.

Mind you im not saying that Gears of War 2 and Fable 2 are bad games and frankly i wish i could buy an XBOX360 just to play them but with all do respect to the XBOX360 Consumer Base it´s not gonna happen caz PS3 will keep me busy till February.

On a side-note and lets leave the Fan-Boy shit , lets not forget that the eventual arrival of Tom Clancy's EndWar/SOCOM coupled with the distribution of the new Sony Headset will spark an interest in Microsoft to create a similar device for there fan base and frankly i would applaud there efforts in doing so because in the end what matters is "us" the consumers, who get top quality material for whatever platform they own so that we can enchance our community, be it on XBOX or PS3.

I have to say that "True", there are alot of kids in Xbox Live but what does it matter. From the way i see it, the more people who buy consoles and use community services will overrall enchance any community in a whole. In the end (wishful thinking) i surely hope that MS and Sony wipe those arrogant and pompous faces and find a way to join our 2 communites as one.Lets face it, it will happen but it will take all of us to make them see we want that change.

So-Called Rumor:: From what ive read and heard Fable 2 will not have co-op play active during the game initial launch. Now that cuts a huge portion of the games experience in my eyes and MS is being a complete and utter $%$#%$ in trying to launch a game which doesnt give the full package to its user base and frankly if i was an XBOX360 user i wouldnt permit this to happen but then again if people dont speak up about this issue then MS will continue to do it (think about it and try to imagine it happening to our PS3 games in the near future when they release games 90% completed).
