My favorite words I've read on the Demo, from Gabe of Penny Arcade:
"In other news, did any of you guys grab the Dante's Inferno demo? It's like they took the Divine Comedy and turned it into a seventh grader's wet dream. Tycho and I were laughing during most of the cut scenes. When Dante is sewing the cross into his skin we couldn't figure out if it was supposed to be funny, or if if they were actually serious about this crap.
Somehow they managed to copy everything about God of War except the fun.
That's my back of the box quote."
