GS says : It’s a shame the entirety of Dante’s Inferno couldn’t match the frenetic pacing and horrific imagination found in the beginning of your adventure because it could have been a worthwhile alternative to the excellent God of War series. But most of the game falls far short of its impressive beginning, which results in a repetitive and uninspired adventure that loses steam long before you reach the bitter end.

Dante’s Inferno is certainly fun during those hectic first few hours, but there is little reason to play beyond those parts. It’s not worth visiting hell without the promise of heaven on the other side.

Dante’s significance rests on the quality of the tribute. The systems it bases its world upon are undeniably robust, and the levelling metagame is engaging, but the execution in play feels routine, and its platforming aspects throw up too many instant and infuriating deaths.

As with all entries in this genre, the highlights are the boss battles, which in drawing from the most potent of Catholic nightmares and featuring famous sinners from history provide the game’s standout moments. But in the wider context, Dante’s Inferno fails to rise above its peers, the punishment for which is not damnation, merely a place in limbo.

Terminal Gamer’s Geoffrey Calver looks at how the Mass Effect games have changed gaming forever.

From the article:

"In the end, the Mass Effect story will change gaming because Shepard isn’t just Shepard – he’s my Shepard. And yours is your Shepard. Our decisions are never the same. We each have a different experience. And because those decisions carry over to the next game, they are real decisions. Mass Effect is very much alive. The universe is teeming with characters that matter and decisions that reverberate. "
