DESCRIPTION
Loosely based on The Divine Comedy's first act, Dante's Inferno is a third-person action game starring Dante Alighieri: an Italian mercenary who journeys to hell itself to retrieve the love of his life, Beatrice. As he ventures into hell's nine circles, from limbo to treachery, Dante will engage demons and other ghastly creatures looking to end his heroic quest in gruesome fashion. To survive, Dante wields a massive scythe made of bone, Death's scythe, which has the ability to harvest souls from the damned. Dante can also channel holy powers from a cross bequeathed to him by Beatrice, and even tame some of the dark creatures he encounters during his dangerous descent. Dante will soon discover that he must atone for his past sins while preparing for his ultimate confrontation with fallen angel Lucifer. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

“Well, there's a great character design, the graphics are pretty cool and the plot is interesting, but the gameplay is too much trite, and It have nothing to do with Divine Comedy.
The Beatrice character is supposed to be the coolest thing ever, what will help Dante to understand the evil that man do, but in this game is just "another princess to save". And of course I don't like this Dante, with a schythe stole from the Death... excessive. And yeah, there's no mention about his italian origins, here in Italy (yep, I'm italian, pizza spaghetti e colosseo) Dante Alighieri is the father of Italian Language, but in the game he's not a poet, is not a philosopher, he's just a templar knight (???) and, for what I've seen, is pretty dumb.
Of course from a game called Dante's Inferno I was expecting a revisitation of Divine Comedy, but seriously... that's not Divine Comedy. That's God Of War with Dante on steroids. But still, is pretty enjoyable, funny, the plot is not too bad (the idea of a templar knight who passed his life in sins, but now he must face them for prove his love and search for redemption is kinda awesome) and there's violence. Everybody loves violence in videogames! :P”

Dante's Inferno is a really great game. You take on a role of Dante, the crusader, that travels through the 9 vicious circles of Hell just to save his beloved Beatrice from the dirty hands of Lucifer. On the way you'll encounter many 'special' looking areas and monsters that'll kind of make a true christian rethink his whole life.
Dante's Inferno is packed with actions, small puzzles and magical abilities that you'll use on your quest.
There's nothing else I can about this game. I can now only give it a score of 4/5.
Why 4 you ask? Cause the difficulty levels are too similar. The only differences between the easiest-hardest difficulties is that you only spend more magic points.”
