Dante's Inferno

[If there's already a thread on this, I didn't see it, but merge in such a case]

With my talk of action games recently I almost forgot that another action game is throwing it's hat in the gaming landscape. I must admit, when I heard EA was going for an action game, I didn't think they knew what they were getting into. So I waited for gameplay to emerge, and found that Visceral Games weren't half-assing this effort. The demo recently dropped for PS3 and I here's some vid.

I heard the game described as a 'Christian God of War' and that description isn't off (or even bad). I'm also intrigued to see another Western attempt of an action title. Yank developers don't do actions games often but we have some to show, the God of War series and Origins Wolverine being very good takes of the concept. We also made WET, but Japs did Ninja Blade so we're square.

Animation is smooth and I'd love to try out the controls. The moves look good if not out of place (Shaolin staff style? Okay). LOL at the holy cross weaponized, but that's fitting at least. PS3 owners check it out and sound off.
