Blocking access to Super Bowl viewers, CBS has apparently rejected this new TV spot for EA’s upcoming game Dante’s Inferno. But today I read that EA will get it’s way – after changing the tag line at the end to “Hell Awaits.” Blur Studio animated the ad.
It’s not dissimilar from the TV spot Psyop did for the game about a year ago:
In related news, Film Roman is releasing a 2D-animated DVD based on the game in a few weeks. You can see a trailer for Dante’s Inferno: An Animated Epic here.
The game ads look spiffy, but of the two clips I’ve seen of the animated film, the film looks underwhelming.
