EA an Visceral Games have issued an apology after the uproar caused by their contest at this years Comic-Con known as "Sin to Win".
BeefJack writes: "Many have noted that Dante's Inferno, based on the Divine Comedy, doesn't seem to be very true to the spirit of the literary classic. During a recent panel at Comic-Con, Jonathan Knight, an executive producer at EA, gave a taste of exactly how far the relationship has been pushed."
From Xbox Evolved, Electronic Arts and the Dantes Inferno Team:
PlayStation LifeStyle writes, "Visceral Games', Dante's Inferno is a dark descent into hell. The entire concept is very reminiscent of God of War and there has been no end to the comparisons of the two games. One big difference was God of War III was playable at E3. Dante was only playable behind closed doors. This week, Dante has his first public gameplay demonstrations."
Sorry PC gamers. Dante's keeping his Inferno to himself. Speaking with Big Download, an EA PR rep shot down any hopes of a PC version of the hotly anticipated game.
ZoKnowsGaming writes "Visceral Games, a studio of Electronic Arts Inc. today announced a collaboration with DC Comics/WildStorm to develop a comic book mini-series based on Dante's Inferno, EA's video game adaptation of part one of "The Divine Comedy." The comic will make its world debut at Comic-Con International in San Diego from July 23 – 26."

Dante's Inferno developer Visceral Games' Glen Schofield has said in an interview that he's perfectly aware of the Divine Comedy being written as a trilogy, saying "so there's at least room for two more [games] after that."
