Dead Space 2 Multiplayer Review by BattleStrats

Is the Dead Space 2 campaign the best ever survival horror story of all time?

Well I honestly couldn't tell you. I haven't played it yet. Unlike most people, I have spent most of the last 12 hours playing the surprisingly addictive multiplayer. Every other review I have read has spared only a few sentences for the "tacked on" multiplayer. Only a few sentences do not do it justice so I decided to review the game solely on the multiplayer.

Finally some multiplayer information - everyone else is just covering the single player

AntoineDcoolette5589d ago

What? Dead Space 2 has multiplayer? I didn't even realize.

Kidding, of course, but I find it to be irrelevant >:(

xxxAnubisxxx5589d ago

The multiplayer was the big question mark in Dead Space 2. It's nice to see it turned out pretty good

It is definitely worth it. I consider the campaign to be a bonus.

UnwanteDreamz5589d ago (Edited 5589d ago )

Wow I can't even relate to that. I like MP as much as the next guy but over a single player campaign?

I could understand if this was Black Ops or BC2 those games have better MP then SP IMO.

I just hope your preference dosen't become the norm or SP will die and gaming will be no better for it.

"I consider the campaign to be a bonus." - indeed

yarbie10005589d ago

I want to pick this game up but I really couldn't get into the first one so Im a little hesitant

Kon5589d ago

It is nice to know that the Single Player wasn't ruined by the multiplayer.

Oh man its awesome so far, picked it up last night. Its more fast pace then the 1st, it seems like im flying through it, im already on Chapter 3 not sure how many chapters there are tho. Lot more action, not as scary atm, but ive been getting hints that it will get scarier. Ive also just started.

The EA servers seem to be down today though. I went to go check out the multiplayer and i cant connect, on PC that is.

DA_SHREDDER5589d ago (Edited 5589d ago )

Definitely more fast pace then the first. Honestly thought it was better than Uncharted 2 and im only on level 3. Some sections look just damn real. The lighting, sound effects second to none. Haven't even tried the multiplayer, but I loved the beta so Im saving that for a day im totally bored so I know forsure I have a good day.

Oh I forgot Dead Space Extraction, I have the PS Move so Ill be good for awhile. Damnit, Im still addicted to DCU, but Im so loving Dead Space 2 right now. The dlc suit is so bad ass too. I love being able to fly ZOE style. Almost anyways.

UnwanteDreamz5589d ago (Edited 5589d ago )

DLC suit? No, wait, what? Where did you preorder?

Never mind I think I just need to redeem the code that came with my CE. I hope.....

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!

badz14967d ago

cue the apologist saying that these are mostly just contractors hired for this specific project bla bla bla

The community warned them this would happen but nope they knew better they continued with the live service push the made the art style cartoonish and this is the result

isarai_lee79d ago

It's always so bizarre when studios announce something super early in development under the suggestion of forming the game to player feedback, and then they push against all feedback heading straight for the cliff while everyone is warning them along the way

lol ya think? they're sending all that work to the cheaper labor market as soon as possible. and FYI, that labor market has exploded in the last 5-10 years. They have enough people to replace every single job. But honestly, EA is over filled with useless upper management as it is. You could probably trim 25% of their staff with no real loss in production. They aren't gamers, they're business execs. Just look at how many AI related jobs they're already starting to post. Its also hilarious that PIF owns Battle field 6

lodossrage113d ago (Edited 113d ago )

Wait,

The same congress that attacked Lina Khan when she fought the Microsoft Activision purchase.
The same congress that allowed Disney to buy 90% of Fox
The same congress that allowed Liv Golf to buy the PGA
The same congress that sits back while Paramount tries a hostile takeover despite losing the bid for Warner Bros.

NOW, the suddenly cares about doing what's "right" for works? Yeah, right.

thorstein113d ago

No. There were elections and some of the scum were replaced.

TheColbertinator113d ago

Different elections. Different scum. Same results.

rlow1113d ago

i know its a long shot, but i hope this gets shot down.

EA now owned by The Saudis and Ubisoft to inevitably be owned by China. In hindsight, once EA and Ubisoft started having their financial woes, they should have pulled a Koei Tecmo/Bandai Namco by merging their operations into one.
