god dammit that isn't right! multiple sins exist on the same circle! Not on ALL circles, mind you, but still. And where was betrayal? Where Judas is forever gnawed upon by Satan trapped in his frozen lake in the icy pit?!
If heaven exists, Judus would be there, he was/is Jesus' best friend, he was the only one who did all of Jesus' biddings and did what he was asked, even if it did go a bit homosexual for a bit (1), which includes tell Augustus (2) about him.
1. Kiss The Limbs and Lips of the Boss To Show Complete Obedience - Knights of Templar did the same.
2.) Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus or Imperator Caesar Divi Filius Augustu(s) was the first Emperor of Rome and who declared the crusifiction of Jesus Christ due to being misinformed that Jesus was trying to take the 'Throne?'.

Also i would like to go to Gluttony, at least then i'd be able to eat, i like food.
I'd hate to go to Lust, cause i don't want to be sexually tortured and possibly neutered.
No, listen, you don't understand, clearly you do not have the literary background on the subject.
OP made this thread about the upcoming Dante's Inferno game, yes? Dante's Inferno, of course, is based on the "Inferno" book of Dante Alighieri's epic poem "The Divine Comedy". According to Inferno, Hell is a series of nine concentric circles, each one lower into the pit than the last. In the deepest circle of hell, Satan stands waist-deep in a frozen lake. There, his three faces chew upon the most horribly damned. Judas is in his third face, a black (not racially black) face, and endures the most painful torment.
This is also the official stance of Catholicism, as it was the church who gave the poem the title "Divine". In his life, Dante ever only called it "The Comedy". After his death, upon review, those in charge of the church decided Dante had been inspired by God and what he had written was truth. They then renamed his work "The Divine Comedy".
Furthermore, almost all Christian faiths still say Judas went to hell for what he did. True, he did repent his transgression 'gainst the Lord, but it seems God doesn't forgive you for the death of his only son. Hardly surprising, looking at His behavior in the Old Testament.
My post was, honestly, a little off topic. I was raging at the perversion of one of the greatest works ever written for the purposes of the game, and bemoaning the lack of my favorite image of Satan. Because I can almost guarantee Satan will not be as he appears in the book.
Plus, the game should have a co-op mode with the second player as Vergil.
Oh and the punishment for gluttony isn't a shit-ton of food. It's starvation.
