Dead Space 2 Officially In Development... Like Right Now

PushSquare: "Electronic Arts employee Patrik Patel has cheekily updated his LinkedIn profile - revealing he's working as a Technical/Development Director for Dead Space 2. Call us "obvious" but we'd assume the project has to be rolling before work can begin.

Perhaps we'll see something at E3. Although don't hold your breath. It's unlikely this game will see the light of day until next year."

click disagree i don't care, the first one was overrated IMO
so repetitive , go there, fix fix fix fix fix....

Hellsvacancy6232d ago (Edited 6232d ago )

Ill tell ya i disagree, I thought Dead Space was a fantastic game, 4get Resident Evil 5 disagree all u want but i thought it was a horrible game (no run and shoot - Come on) and as Silent Hill and Alone In The Dark well im not gonna go there (im playin through Alone In The Dark Inferno - not likin it much)

Dead Space's where the funs at, it was VERY atmospheric it was really violent had a great build up 2 the game (movin comics and a animated feature length movie) it had variety i never felt like it looked the same and 4 a game set on a Space Ship that was a major feat

All in all its a win 4 me 1 of the best games ive played this gen - Bring on Dead Space 2

Si-Pie6232d ago

I agree with you Hellsvacancy I thought Dead Space was a fantastic game too! The atmosphere in it is great! But dont worry d0nT wOrrY your entitled to your opinion but think you will be in the minority as the disagrees are showing.

green6232d ago (Edited 6232d ago )

I have the game and dont really like it as well.It has all the right ingredients in place but somehow i just can't seem to enjoy it. All my friends who have played it love it but as they say "different strokes for different folks".

ShabzS6232d ago

go there fix that and meet me hea- oh no wait thats not working either so got there fix that too... and repeat... the movements were limited, couldnt even interact with the npcs... or stand in the same room with them most of the time... but the gfx of that game were craaazy good... multi plats dont get their chops for good graphics but dead space really had some spectacular gfx... and yeah sometimes the scares were cheap ... but the creepy intense atmosphere more than made it up for that ... and the sounds were fantastic... u can just hear them crawling in the vents behind you

GameGambits6232d ago

I clicked disagree, because I disagree. Isn't that what the button is there for?

Dead Space has so much done right for its first in its series that anyone who has played enough games know when to give credit when credit is due. Lighting, graphics, SOUND, controls, story, dialogue, voice acting, difficulty scaling, immersion, theme, and art style are all done excellently.

My major complaint? I wish it hadn't been so short. The game needed a solid 20 hour campaign, and just about 2 more big crazy bosses. In 2008 my 3 favorite games in order were: MGS4, Fallout 3, and then Dead Space.

I hadn't played a survival horror since Silent Hill 1 simply because the genre was not my cup of tea. For Dead Space to take that whole genre and make it appealing to someone not a fan of it is astounding in its own right.

This is a must play. End of story.

Timesplitter146232d ago

Dead Space was fantastic. It was SO immersive and the weapons felt absolutely insane

felidae6232d ago

sorry but NO!

Dead Space is the best next-gen game .. along with Bioshock!

DARK WITNESS6232d ago

lol... dead space repetative, and all the countless fps games with next to nothing stories were not ? well everyone has an opinion i guess. my opinion is that your opinion is a bit of a joke.

if dead space is overated, then all the other games that came out last year need a few points knocking off them.

joydestroy6231d ago

you're crazy man. Dead Space FTW!!! one of the best new IP's last year.

Awesome, loved the first one, can't wait for the sequel.

Silent Hill has morphed from perfect (1 - 3) to utter crap (4 and beyond), Resident Evil is a TPS with outdated controls, I shouldn't even bring up Alone in the Dark, and the only Fatal Frame since 2005 is on the Wii and Japan-only.

Siren and Dead Space are the only worthy contenders from the dying horror genre these days. Glad to see they're giving Dead Space legs, it really deserves it.

solidjun56232d ago

I loved the first one. The controls were amazing and responsive. In my opinion, RE5 should've modeled it's controls after DeadSpace. So I can't wait for the sequel. Great story.

PotNoodle6232d ago

Respect++ EA.. everyone assumed after it didn't do so well that you would drop it.

labaronx6232d ago (Edited 6232d ago )

across 2 consoles isn't doing well? That seems kinda average sales for most games to me. Really only a hand full of games actually do better than that.

shazui1236232d ago

I hope they improve upon or even keep the same formula they used in the first, was an awesome game. If they can find a way to improve the atmospherics and graphics, maybe some slicker animations in there as well, theyll have a GOTY 2010 contender, at least i hope it comes out then, dont wanna wait too long for more limb slicing goodness :D

I just remembered GOW3, nm i can wait :P.

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.

XiNatsuDragnel783d ago

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

XiNatsuDragnel782d ago

I sometimes I wished I didn't Ngl lol

Knightofelemia782d 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.

MeteorPanda782d ago

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

Yi-Long782d 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.

Tacoboto782d ago

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

Gee...

Yi-Long781d 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.

Kornholic781d ago (Edited 781d 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."

Aaroncls7802d ago

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

hombreacabado802d ago

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

mariopasta802d ago

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

Terry_B802d 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! 😥

SonyStyled905d 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

DaReapa905d 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.

Inverno904d 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.

1nsomniac904d ago (Edited 904d ago )

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

anast904d ago

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

Xenial904d 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!
