Is God of War 3 director Stig Asmussen out for a fisty-cuff with the guy who decided to rip off God of War for Dante's Inferno? No. in fact, he's rather complimentary of EA's brawler.
"We've been intrigued about Dante's Inferno. This is my favourite genre, and the more people that are making [these games] the better," Asmussen told the UK Official PlayStation magazine.

"And this is a really rich story they're building on, it's very interesting. The day that the demo came out we were trying to download it on PSN at midnight. We all wanted to see it," he added.
We were surprised at how good EA's effort was, too. Read our Dante's Inferno review to see why we gave it a 9/10 score.
It's nice to hear something like this after a week of War between competitors within the gaming industry (mainly between Sony and Microsoft). So here's hoping the comments will just be as 'peaceful'.
I know I'm asking a lot, you guys always wanna fight and make lists!
And here I thought this speech would be delivered with a sympathetic, condescending little smile. "We're so happy other developers are making this kind of game"

Aye it is nice to hear, but then you should of heard what he really thought about the game.
yea dantes inferno is good but not 9/10 good. maybe a 8, a 8.5 if your being generous. i still think darksiders is the best game to release this year so far. bayonetta sucked and dantes inferno was not as good as i was hoping so darksiders filled in the gap. the combat was really good but the puzzles destroyed it for me. there is nothing more infuriating than spending 15 minutes completing a puzzle to have to do another one the second your done. 10 minutes of combat, 20 minutes of puzzles, 5 minutes of cut scenes. rinse and repeat.
That's cool man and Kudos to them. Nice to see other developers taking notice of hard work that goes into bringing us the awesome gaming experiences we all love.
