Dante's Inferno

Leigh Alexander's Sexy Videogame Land has sparked a challenge for independent game developers.

Usurp EA's upcoming title Dante's Inferno and cause mass consumer confusion as to what is the true corporate product.

I'm hoping this turns out well.

So, at first, I thought this was about trying to portray Dante's The Divine Comedy as an EA corporate product. This confused me, because I had no idea how one could confuse the former for the latter.

On topic: I haven't read The Divine Comedy in years, so I can't say whether or not Visceral Games/EA is turning it into some God of War clone. Wouldn't surprise me if that were the case, though. Looks like I have some remedial reading to do...

I could rant for a little while about how they took a classic literary master piece and, as you stated, turned it into little more than a GOW clone. But I won't. I just wish the game had been more like the poem. Exploration with Virgil instead of a Hack-n-Slash with poor design using the novel as no more that a cheap backdrop.
