Ok so I would have to say I've been pretty pumped for Dante's Inferno. Having seen no CE for awhile I assumed that the best I was going to get was the pre-order figure from Gamestop. And it turns out that is Ill get because I am a 360 owner.

The Divine Edition

So not only does it come with all those extra goodies(soundtrack, art book, digital copy of poem, DLC) it comes at no extra charge. I could see giving one console a head start on the demo, that's common and not to bad. But screwing one over on the CE like this is sad. Visceral has taken a nose dive in my book. After playing Dead Space, seeing Dante's Inferno previews, and the Dead Space 2 preview in this month Gameinformer these guys were set to make me a day one lifetime customer. But this is sad. Now I'm worried about Dead Space 2, will 360 be screwed again?

I'm confused as to what is wrong?

So your not getting the extra content, that in no way is having any effect on the quality of the actual game itself, which you were already buying without the extra content in the first place?

So maybe Sony made a deal, couldn't tell you as I don't know if there is reason why the extras are only on PS3, this is no different than getting some exclusive game or similar, but you still get to play the actual game which should be the reason for getting it anyway.

Sure, extras are nice, but most of that is going to be available at a later date through some other means.

Personally I'm not interested in Dante's Inferno anyway, but I'll be getting my copy of Dead Space 2 the day it comes out even if they stuck Isaac riding a unicorn with rainbows coming out its butt. :p

Once you've played God of War, you will be.

And it does kind of suck for 360 owners, simply because the cost of the PS3 CE is the same as the 360 CE, but you get a bunch more stuff.

The demo looks good, I'm impressed more than I thought I would be, but this still will get lost in the Q1 shuffle for me, will probably rent it.

They do get more content then 360 owners. Free DLC at no extra charge.

what no CE edition for Xbox? ha!! I'm not going to buy it!! but still play it :p

Now seriously its understandable, if you can't do it with horsepower and quality games do it with marketing and cheap tricks, nice way to fail Sony and EA (Y)

So far most DLC has been pretty weak and I don't waste money on CEs, so this has zero impact. It's a weak sauce move on their part, but whatever. This game will at best be a minor hit so this whole debate will be forgotten in a few weeks.

You don't buy any games :laugh:

From what I've heard the journalists have been slating Dantes Inferno quite a bit in previews, I bet it's average at best. You want GoW3, not this :rofl:

Free DLC that isn't out till the release, and I would assume its a code to download it since the website has a date next to it, which means it will be on both consoles, you will just have to pay for it on the Xbox360 if its actually any good in the first place.

And as I stated before, it wont effect the core game that is already there, which should be the reason your getting it in the first place.
