Oh my EA has gone too far this time:

One title not highlighted by EA CEO John Riccitiello today was the release of Dante Alighieri's Inferno, part of The Divine Comedy. Yes, that's the book, soon to be republished bearing the Dante's Inferno video game's likeness.

Random House and EA have buddied up to release of paperback edition of the epic poem upon which the God of War-esque hack and slash adventure Dante's Inferno draws upon for inspiration. It's the Henry Wadsworth Longfellow translation, if that convinces you to pick up a copy.

But it's likely the other bonuses, including an introduction from Dante's executive producer Jonathan Knight and "a 16-page, full-color art insert showcasing the evolution of characters and environments from the classic poem to the video game" that will spur gamer's interest to read.

It's a public domain book, also the cover is complety misleading, anyway I can't wait for Hamlet or Don Quixote EA.
