After various leaks via LinkedIn, the company makes the sequel official.
Electronic Arts announced today that a sequel to their popular Dead Space title from last year is officially coming to both the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.
I guess I missed the part where Dante fought off big-titted women and babies with his huge scythe.
Dante's Inferno is two things to me right now, one of which is good and one of which is awful. Basically, it's just God of War, but it's also a travesty of a literary classic.
Neal and Lauren are going to the Greater Philadelphia Area to check out GameX aka the Games & Media Expo this weekend.
Lauren and I made a brief sojourn to VGXPO, another Philadelphia-based gaming expo, two weeks ago. Now, two weeks later, we're going to hit up the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center for GameX, a "national game consumer show and 'pop culture' festival."
EA's guided first-person experience isn't selling as expected.
With the September 2009 NPDs out and being leaked, more information is coming in. Thanks to that, we can all see that it looks like EA's Dead Space: Extraction isn't selling too well.
Redwood City, Calif. – October 9, 2009
Visceral Games™, the developers behind the critically-acclaimed Dead Space™ franchise and a studio of Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS), today announced that Academy Award™-nominated writer Will Rokos is writing the story line for Dante’s Inferno™, the adaptation of part one of Dante Alighieri’s epic poem “The Divine Comedy” from Visceral Games™. Rokos is best known for his Best Original Screenplay nomination for Monster’s Ball in 2001, and is collaborating with the game’s creative team to craft an all new narrative that parallels the original poem.
A trademark and a July blog post hint heavily at the Dead Space and Daunte's Infenro developer's next project being related to the 19th century serial killer.
EA recently registered two trademarks that tease a possible Jack the Ripper video game, according to superannuation.
The Wii debut of the young series is full of atmospheric awesomeness despite some minor quibbles.
Let's start by saying this: Dead Space: Extraction is a pretty awesome science-fiction movie. It sets a fantastic mood, there's a mystery behind it (granted, it isn't as mysterious if you beat the original), and it has a compelling narrative. As a game, Extraction is also fun. It takes the on-rails shooter genre and makes some changes to it, both good and bad. The end result is a solid experience that lives up to EA's bold claims that it is a "guided first-person experience."
A LinkedIn job profile reveals that EA's third-person shooter sequel is "ready for production in the next few months."
With Dead Space: Extraction blazing a trail for the young series on Wii, it looks like development for the next numerical sequel in the series is getting ready to go.
