Dead Space 2 console-only, says EA Q3 release

VG247: Unless EA's dropped a typo on its third-quarter fiscal release, there isn't going to be a PC version of Dead Space 2.

Fanb0y5961d ago

Heh. Not a lot of people will be grieving over this piece of news.

kittoo5960d ago

I wont mind playing on a console but I wanted to play it in better graphics :(

trancefreak5960d ago

I disagree their are alot of pc gamers and its a shame that the pc gets treated like this. The pc is what pushes the envelope in gaming and gaming tech and with out pc gaming all that nice tech such as high end pc with bad ass g cards are for what then?

Pc advancements also make it possible for consoles to acheive better gaming experiences.

I can go on about how alot of games get catered towards the consoles which is sad not taking advantages of high end pc gaming which is disappointing.

I am not sugesting games suk on consoles i just believe the pc isnt getting what it deserves and what enthusiast desire for high end gaming

Seems like some devs are satisfied with games looking almost the same across the board which also suks this gen. Consoles holding back what was a dominate pc monster.

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.

XiNatsuDragnel785d ago

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

XiNatsuDragnel784d ago

I sometimes I wished I didn't Ngl lol

Knightofelemia785d 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.

MeteorPanda785d ago

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

Yi-Long785d 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.

Tacoboto785d ago

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

Gee...

Yi-Long784d 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.

Kornholic784d ago (Edited 784d 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."

Aaroncls7805d ago

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

hombreacabado805d ago

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

mariopasta805d ago

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

Terry_B805d 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! 😥

SonyStyled907d 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

DaReapa907d 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.

Inverno907d 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.

1nsomniac907d ago (Edited 907d ago )

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

anast907d ago

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

Xenial907d 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!
