If you’d told us years ago that classic works of contemplative literature would make excellent window dressing for games around which phrases like “gore fountain” and “double decapitation” might be thrown, we’d have said you were completely nuts.

“Years” ago, however, Dante’s Inferno Executive Producer Jonathan Knight was already kicking around ideas for a videogame based on Shakespeare’s tragedy Macbeth.

Dante’s Inferno features a demon boss’s penis during its “flying,” “fire-spewing” and “standing around” phases, according to the game’s ESRB rating. Apparently the appendage is physics-based.

Digital Foundry’s posted what is probably the most boring performance analysis graph in the world, showing Dante’s Inferno so locked at 60 frames-per-second it looks as though Visceral’s thrown away the key.

We had a chat with Mr DF the other day, and he reckons the game’s excellent demo dropped two frames in 25,000. Play is 60fps, cut-scenes at 30.

Check out our video of the entire demo here. It’s out in February. Please buy it. God asked you to.

Hit the link for 20 minutes of Dante’s Inferno gameplay, encompassing the entire demo released to the US PSN yesterday.

This is the first section from the game itself, so don’t watch if you’re worried about spoilers.

Rest assured, what’s on show here is weapons grade. You’re not going to see presentation like this many places other than Visceral Games.

Also rest assured that when pundits have likened play itself to God of War, they really weren’t kidding.

Watch and see. The game’s out on February 5 for PS3 and 360. The 360 demo releases in both the US and Europe on Christmas Eve.
