Dante's Inferno
Ozymandias:
Wait, hold on, strike the alien bit.
They were aided by future, time traveling Communists who are attempting to go to key points in history to advance the communist agenda in four dimensions.
That way we can make it a franchise.
Also, even though I'm taking the piss, I really want to play the fuck out of this now. I miss video games being so ridiculously absurd in awesome ways, like Wolfenstein 3D or even Ecco the Dolphin.
TheFuriousWombat:
Just backing up a bit, it's absolutely absurd and illogical to think that a hyper-violent action game such as this will be is in any way promoting Christianity. The devs are co-opting a book's setting. They thought the version of Hell Dante created would translate into some cool game levels. I can guarantee that's the extent of their interest. Just because GoW has members of the Greek pantheon doesn't mean the devs are trying to promote worshiping Zeus. That this game is not promoting Christianity in any way could not be more obvious.

Also, they could of at least let you play as Virgil. I mean, Dante faints.
