5 Games Dead Space 2 Borrows From

To me they have borrowed some from bioshock to , especially dead space .

ATiElite5593d ago

1. Doom 3
2. Resident Evil 4
3. Max Payne (stasis is bullet time)
4. Xenomorph (killing aliens/mutants on a helpless deserted ship)
5. Alien vs. Predator

Ducky5594d ago (Edited 5594d ago )

Err.
I was expecting SystemShock2 or Doom3 to get a mention. Oh well, they got ResidentEvil4 in there.

I'm surprised it didn't list Half-Life2 because of the gravity gun influence *rolleyes*

Kon5594d ago

Dead Space is one of the most unoriginal games out there. But is still fun and scary.

TheGameFoxJTV5594d ago

Dead Space is kinda refreshing compared to alot of this shit released today.

VenomProject5594d ago

One of the most unoriginal? Yeah, because there's tons of third person survival horrors set in space with zombies and cult elements.

Honolulu5594d ago

Ambiance of Systemshock 2 with the story of Event Horizon and gameplay of Resident evil 4.

Roozium5594d ago

Dead Space 2 borrows from Dead Space? NO SHIT!

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

XiNatsuDragnel775d ago

I sometimes I wished I didn't Ngl lol

Knightofelemia776d 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.

MeteorPanda776d ago

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

Yi-Long776d 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.

Tacoboto775d ago

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

Gee...

Yi-Long775d 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.

Kornholic775d ago (Edited 775d 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?

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

hombreacabado796d ago

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

mariopasta796d ago

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

Terry_B796d 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! 😥

SonyStyled898d 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

DaReapa898d 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.

Inverno898d 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.

1nsomniac898d ago (Edited 898d ago )

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

anast898d ago

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

Xenial897d 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!
