This is a preview of the Dante's Inferno demo that came out earlier this month, it also compares the upcoming action game to PS3-only God of War III - seems overall positive of Dante's from Dead Space developer Visceral Games.

Something out of the ordinary is happening in 2010 – for the first time in some years publishers are taking a chance and packing quarter one with tons of high-profile video game releases. For RPG fans there is Final Fantasy XIII and Mass Effect 2, action gamers get Darksiders and Army of Two: The 40th Day, and adventure fans get their choice between Bayonetta and Dante’s Inferno (PS3 owners also can throw down in God of War III). These are only a few of the big budget titles that will be releasing between January and April of 2010; with so many to choose from it’s always nice to get a little hands-on time with the game before forking over the cash for purchase. Thankfully developer Visceral Games and publisher EA Games released a demo for Dante’s Inferno just this past week, on the day before Christmas 2009. Considering the subject matter of the game it’s a bit funny that the demo would come out around such a religious holiday, even so the half-hour play-through was worth every bit of the inconvenience of sending the children out of the media room.
