The gentleman in the photo is actually from a different Sony exclusive called Mass Effect, not this Sony exclusive called Dead Space.

R2D25022d ago

Why do I get the feeling that this guys should have made the Iron Man game.

Quagmire5022d ago

Because then it wouldve been a good film-based game

outrageous5022d ago

Yep...it looks like Iron man without the nice lighting. The graphics look worse in this adaptation. The original makers of Dead Space 1 are making a COD game over at Activision to be released holiday 2011...that should be interesting!!!

@outrageous

david jaffe left sony santa monica to form his own studio, does that mean god of war 3 sucked too? and please, the people that left visceral games were barely the minds behind the game, more like the corporate suits there.

@r2d2

if there's an iron man game, i'd rather it adapted straight from the comics a la batman aa, not follow the movies. usually game devs are more faithful when it comes to adapting storylines, hollywood is a bit arrogant and always want to change something that is just perfectly fine.

LordMarius5022d ago

lol @ 2:50
I thought EA was going to rip off God of War 3 in Dante's Inferno 2 :P

drdistracto7075022d ago

because there has never been a game with a falling sequence before god of war 3 right?

*cough* ratchet and clank *cough*

Coheno5022d ago

Four AWESOME minutes! Can't wait for this game!

J BO5022d ago

why in the hell every topic about other games we heard comments about god of war and uncharted???? can we at least discuss the game without mention other games for god sake !!!!!!

Nihilism5022d ago (Edited 5022d ago )

I want to watch it, but I don't want to see the intro to one of my most anticipated games this gen before I get my hands on it. People like to have played a game in their heads before they get their hands on it. People wonder why games are too easy these days....the unknown to too difficult for people to comprehend.

@J BO

First generation gamers, that is the problem, gaming begins and ends for them this gen which is why they can't get over it *shakes head*

EA Shoots Down Dead Space 2 Remake Rumors: 'No Validity to This Story'

EA has shut down rumors that EA Motive considered a Dead Space 2 remake before shelving it due to low sales of the previous game, saying there's "no validity" to the reports.

XiNatsuDragnel37d ago

Sure.... right.... at least remake dead space 3 w/o microtransactions bs.

XiNatsuDragnel36d ago

I sometimes I wished I didn't Ngl lol

Knightofelemia36d ago

Why not remake DS2 whether shot down or not it's still my favorite game next to DS1. As much as I hate EA I would buy or would have bought DS2 day one.

MeteorPanda36d ago

No validity XD "Guys guys, we cant possible make a good game or cater to the gamers wants, stop"

Yi-Long36d ago

I don't know if sales met their expectations or not. I just know that the high review scores received my attention so I was interested in buying it, but its price stayed high (50+ bucks) for so long that I simply never bothered picking it up.

Tacoboto36d ago

Doesn't pay full price
Doesn't pay *any* price
Ponders if sales met expectations regarding an allegedly canceled sequel.

Gee...

Yi-Long36d ago

Well, for starters, I'm sure there are plenty of games I never bought which did, somehow, still, meet their sales-expectations.

Concerning Dead Space; I never played and thus cared for the original. It's in multiple genres (shooter, sci-fi, horror) I don't particularly care about so it was barely on my radar pre-launch. I was never its target-audience.

When reviews hit, and it was scoring big, it gathered my interest, so while it wasn't in my field of interest, it mrans that I wanted to give it a fair shot and at least give it a try, as I do with many games across different genres; I tend to just cherry-pick the good stuff and see if it's for me or not.

But, I do wait for sales on those games I take a risk on.

Kornholic35d ago (Edited 35d ago )

Lol, you are a huge part of the problem. If a very high-quality game is not even worth 50 bucks to you, then what is?

13 Years Later, Dead Space 2 Is Still A Perfect Video Game

Nameer from eXputer: "Dead Space 2 is a sequel that delivers such a feast that by the time you're done, you're not only full but also satisfied."

Aaroncls756d ago

It was amazing. All 3 DS games game solid for me, but 2 was special.

hombreacabado56d ago

i can do without ds3 but the first two are solid.

mariopasta56d ago

Hope they remake this one too. Just like they did with number 1. The remake of Dead Space 1 was perfection

Terry_B56d ago

thanks to the digital pass for it it was not perfect..in fact its difficult to find a working copy since many years.

I had no idea that Bad Company 2 was still running, and only now that I know, I want to jump on! 😥

SonyStyled159d ago

I was able to find games in the Vietnam dlc on ps3 the last week. There were articles on here about the server closure when it was announced in April

DaReapa159d ago

BF1943 is the only online MP game that I was genuinely interested in. Been playing since launch 14 years ago. Hate that I couldn't put in as much time to play as I'd hoped for during the final week.

Inverno158d ago

I got really into 43 when I bought Bf3, and preferred it. Everything that I disliked or found annoying about Bf3, wasn't an issue in 43. Too bad they never bothered releasing it on PS4 or PC.

1nsomniac158d ago (Edited 158d ago )

Dead Space 2...... I wasn't even aware that had multiplayer. Nevermind that it was apparently one of their best multiplayers!

anast158d ago

Once people stop buying micros, these companies close the doors.

Xenial158d ago

Dead Space 2 multiplayer had been hanging on for years - I'd boot my PS3 up to see some familiar names in lobbies. This will definitely be missed!
