I especially like the guy with tongues in place of all his facial features. Hope that concept made it into the game!
This does look exceptionally silly, but could well be a good game regardless.
Knowing them, they'd make him say "I CAN TASTE YOUR FEAR RWAGAGAGAGOJOHJDOH".

"Let me take a closer lick at you..."
Aaaanyway... my other thought from that featurette was that this is gonna be another one of those games where they spend 90% of the development time developing mind-bendingly good-looking art, and then make 6-8 hours of generic BS for a game.

They hired the guy responsible for exploitation rubbish like Kite and Mezzo Forte? Oh dear.
I always thought "
Mezzo Forte" was a really nonsensical name for an action series, considering that's essentially the midpoint dynamic level in music.
I mean, it's sort of like instead of naming a balls-to-the-walls action flick "
Boiling Point", you call it "
Room Temperature".

That's probably because they went with the literal definition of the term, I guess? I doubt anyone would want to name an action flick 'Fortissimo', anyway.

Fuck the game, fellas, it's the cartoon we should all be following - what do you think when you read "Anal sex with Dante?" Either the literal thing, or Devil May Cry, right? Well, the Dante's Inferno animated flick is going to give you a
new interpretation, previously unimagined, and yet
so literal! Which is kinda like literary, right?

We've got Dante literally being shoved up a monster's butt."
Um...what?
Perhaps I just heard that wrong. I figured they would take extensive liberties with the original work, but there's no way they would get that extensive, would they? Let's see what the game's executive producer, Jonathan Knight has to say.
Quote:
"In the original game script we wrote that Cerberus was going to shove Dante up his ass...it was a crazy, crazy scene. We just couldn't do it in the game for a lot of reasons. To have that moment that was in the game script that was cut from the game to show up in the animated feature is just really cool."
It
is just really cool, isn't it guys?

I wonder why he's so neat and organized about it.

You guys heard about all of the fun times PR business they're doing?
Fake Christian protest, and encouraging women-groping at Comic-Con! You know how they say that bad publicity is good publicity? Apparently, EA has proven this false.

Mm, have they, really? You did just bump this thread because of it. And while, granted, that does little for the game's hype on TTLG, the same mechanism may be working wonders on other... communities around the net.

Yeah, totally. It makes the game seem really EDGY and hip, I'm totally going to go buy it now. I absolutely did not just lose complete respect for this game and for EA's marketing.
Actually, I'm not even going to rent the thing. I'm amused by their shit PR, though, so I guess something good came out of the production.
