i'll have to give it a go to see if it's better than the sexilent bayonetta.
The game itself is excellent, having played the demo, I came away suitably impressed. The dead space team have a winner on their hands for sure.
Amazing.!
I'm not a huge beat'em up fan, but this game should be very fun for those who love god of war games.
However, Dead Space ADDED to it's genre, while this doesn't seem to add anything to the god of war formula, but rather is a blatant copy/paste job.

Look at Dead Space, everyone called it "Resident Evil 4 in space" before release and look how it took gamers by surprise and called it one of the best 3rd person horror games, including me (sci-fi being a big part of it :P).
For for me, Dante's Inferno can be like God of War for all I care, but, they have to make it good. The combat is extremely smooth and fluid and the attacks and weapons have a big "punch" to them and all that runs in 60fps.
Sure it can never be as epic as God of War with its graphics and scale, but that doesnt stop them for delivering good story (i like it) and great combat and pacing.
Look at Ninja Blade for example, that game is an example of BAD rip off from Ninja Gaiden.
They tried to make it as badass, but tried awefully bad with its constant QTEs and cutscenes, boring combos and moves and weapons that didnt feel deadly as much as Ninja Gaiden. And yes I have played it.
Ripping off another game is OKAY in my opinion, but as long as they deliver it very very well.
And from what I have played, the combat is very well done and smooth (though having Scythe only as a weapon is annoying, even though it goes into 3 other "modes").
Graphics are good enough, pacing and other stuff is yet to see with the full game and the music seems to have a great score to it. Considering I know the story for Dante's Inferno it will be interesting to see how the implemented it into a game.
But that is what I think of the game so far, and yes I am going to buy the Death Edition when it comes out, along with God of War 3 the month after that.
Can't you not just take it as what it is ??
Some Years ago we just called it a GENRE,
now a days so many people are calling similar playstyle games clones of God of War !
Then Doom is a Castle Wolfenstein Clone
and
Heretic a Doom Clone
and
Duke Nukem a Heretic clone and so on,
until we arive here of course..Call of Duty is a Castle Wolfenstein clone.
Then you could say
that GoW is a Rygar clone,
cause Rygar was a few years earlier there.
I think what GoW did ,was refine the action game formula,
and showed people how to do it in a good way.
So sure people use it as a model !
I am just happy that another game in the same style comes out as GoW.
I love those Games,and I am happy that GoW came out and did what it did,it made our lives better,cause people now have an idea of how to do it and how not,
they have a role model like GoW.
I think we should just enjoy the game for what it is,and hopefully gives us,fun.
And not just deem it for something it reminds us of,something we mostly all enjoyed and had a good time with. I would say thats a rather pleasant thing and i am happy to get another game in that genre !
Peace
The demo looks to be solid enough but appears just another slasher - great if you want to do it all again i guess
These types of games are fine for people that mostly only want to hack their way through some enthralling adventure.For those that want to live in the delight that is a set of sophisticated combat mechanics, it's Bayonetta 1st, Gaiden 2nd and everything else not really even a consideration
I'm sure this game will be fun enough just like every other slashe, but thank the lord this genre has at last moved on past this standard template
Dante is 60fps game Gow is 30 on average.
Developers decided to make game in 60fps. When you do 30fps game you can pump up details a lot. Actually is not "easy" to make 60 fps game. Its very hard.

Spot on my friend!!!
and wow i even can check if this Giant suffers of dorsum pedis but not see him in total cause i cant move the fucking camera.
I agree with You, that 60 fps make game faster, but game speed depends not only on fps number, there are other things that can make gameplay faster. For example Bayonetta PS3 demo runs only 30fps but for me this game is a lot faster than Dante's Inferno (with solid 60 fps).
