DANTE'S INFERNO game coming

At first the idea of a video game based on Dante's Divine Comedy sounds bizarre, even ridiculous. But if you think about it, Dante's quest through the nine circles of Hell to save Beatrice has a perfect structure for a game, with levels and "bossfights" already described in detail in the original epic poem. The designers are apparently going to be surprisingly faithful to the poem, although they will tweak things to give the player more opportunities for combat (like making the plain of unbaptized babies into a insectlike horde of hungry, demonic infants.)
