EA announces Dead Space
Whether you like it or not, Electronic Arts is the world’s leading third-party publisher and as such covers an expansive portfolio of genres, most notably sports. The publisher behemoth has shown great interest in many different types of games, such as first-person shooters, real-time strategy games, and racing titles just to name a few, but it has never really set foot in the horror genre. That’s about to change however inasmuch as EA has decided to test the waters by announcing a new IP called Dead Space.
Game Informer has spilled the beans on their online website, saying that the October issue of the magazine will contain an “explosive cover-story reveal” of EA’s new sci-fi horror game, Dead Space. Have a look at the front cover below:
Details on the game are so far nonexistent, save for the claim that Dead Space is expected to be “the most chilling sci-fi horror game the world has ever seen”, which in all honesty doesn’t say much. Since it’s EA that’s developing the game, you can bet your bottom dollar that it’s headed to multiple platforms.
We’ll have more on the game as it becomes available.

dead space, dead island, what’s next, dead jungle or something
flogging a dead horse
ur forgetting dead rising and probley dead rising 2(at TGS hopefully)
hey u actually used the qutoe i give never done that befor how nice of u zan
That’s from Capcom! You know, the Resident Evil guys!
i didnt mention dead rising because it was the first game to use the “dead” prefix
dead or alive
ok, to be more specific, i was talking about games that have titles that are 2 words, the first being “dead” and one word following that. i didnt think i would have to explain that one.
next, dead planet .
I’m actually tired when people advertise ‘the scariest, the funniest, the best, etc’ and then it totally tanks. It’s like an empty promise to me now.
So no, EA, it’s not gonna be the most chilling horror game the world has ever seen, not by a longshot.
stick it to ‘em
Wait til you see the downloadable content prices - that’ll no doubt chill you to the bone!
i actually like most of ea games outside of the sports/race department (well fifa and burnout i like) and i think it could be a good game i wonder whos devolping it
Hmmm… Sci-Fi Horror… I smell BioShock don’t you EA ?.
Sci-Fi Horror game in space? Not Bioshock, but Doom.
ahhh sorry never read the space part… yeah does sound like Doom, huh.
Or System Shock.
haha, the guy on the cover looks like an “Action” Big Daddy.
I wonder why EA doesn’t just cash in on the BioShock popularity by making a new systemshock. They do own the license, afterall.
EA has dead space…between the ears.
its ea that cant make a good game.
Except for skate.
Sounds like a horror version of halo
if this is anythin like the classic doom games (not the new ones) il be so happy =)
but chances are itll be a rip of bio shock instead =(
am i the only 1 who after looking at the cover thinks this looks nothing like bioshock or doom aprt from its in space for doom
to me looks like pitch blcak cause he seems to be using the light to fight
next, dead planet
Actually the next one is ‘Dead things’.
I see a dead site… c’mon no updates in more than 24 hours? I need my shot of xbox news… now
Dead Centre! get it? hilarious.
Dead Hooker.
Across between Inner Space and Seven, you need to go inside a a dead hooker to find clues to who killed him.
