'GOW' director praises 'Dante's Inferno'
God Of War III director Stig Asmussen has praised competitor Dante’s Inferno, according to UK Official PlayStation magazine.

The similarities between the two games have been discussed extensively in the games press, but Asmussen said that he welcomes competition in the genre.

"We've been intrigued about Dante's Inferno. This is my favourite genre, and the more people that are making [these games] the better," he told the publication.

"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."

Developed by Visceral Games, Dante's Inferno was released for PS3 and Xbox 360 earlier this month.

God Of War III arrives on the PS3 in North America on March 16 and in Europe on March 19.
