God of War was a ripoff of DMC, imho.

Games steal from each other. When DMC came out, it kinda invented the subgenre that GoW, Ninja Gaiden, DMC, Dante's Inferno, the new 3d castlevania games, Rygar, and Bayonetta are in right now. Just joining that subgenre is in a way, ripping off DMC.

Anyway, Dead Space was a direct ripoff of RE4, with a different premise, and that game was great. It wouldn't surprise me if DI differentiated itself enough for some people to actually prefer it to other games in that subgenre.

In the sense that it's an action hack and slash game, sure it's a ripoff of DMC. Just like every platformer is a ripoff of Mario, right? But GoW isn't an almost identical clone of DMC. Dante's is just GoW with a new skin.....
