Hi Res Trailer Here

Trailer Stills

Press Release:

Quote:
Guildford, UK; February 18, 2009 – Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) today revealed Dead Space™ Extraction, an all-new chapter from the studio that delivered the award-winning action-horror Dead Space game. Built from the ground up and developed exclusively for the Wii™, Dead Space Extraction is a prequel that reveals the events leading up to Isaac Clarke’s mission on the USG Ishimura in the original Dead Space game released in 2008. Dead Space Extraction will marry the innovative motion controls of the Wii Remote with a frenetic first person perspective to create a new action-packed horror experience.

Dead Space Extraction tells the story of a handful of space colonists desperately struggling to escape from a horrific infection on the Aegis VII mining colony deep in the furthest regions of space. The game introduces a new heroine to the fiction and as the crew fall victim to a mysterious contagion aboard the ship, it becomes clear that protecting her may be their only hope for survival. Dead Space Extraction introduces all new characters, weapons, enemies, puzzles and co-operative multiplayer gameplay.

“We could not be more excited to extend Dead Space into an experience exclusive to the Wii. Nintendo has a wonderful history in the horror genre and we are thrilled to build on that tradition with Dead Space Extraction,” said Glen Schofield, VP and General Manager of EA Redwood Shores studio. “As we were developing Dead Space, we realized that there was so much of the story going untold. Dead Space Extraction tells that story with all of the intensity, blood and gore that fans would expect.”

Dead Space Extraction is an EA Redwood Shores title and is scheduled to ship in Autumn 2009. This product has not yet rated by ESRB or PEGI.

And that is why no one wants to make a Hardcore game for the Wii.

Was that an insult to me or an agreement?

I wouldn't call it an insult, but yes, it was directed towards you.

But I love hardcore games, just not rail shooters.

Don't associate me with casuals, because I'm not. It's just that rail shooters... I dunno, they aren't the same. no exploring, one set path... not enough stuff to do.

So before you don't quite insult me again (lulz), take into consideration that I just don't like rail shooters.

I have in no way insinuated that you were a 'casual' gamer.

I just thought that the way you conveyed your dislike towards the game (Which may or may not have been based entirely on 45 seconds of footage and some bad prior experiences) and the genre was over the top and a exemplification of the reactions that prevent hardcore titles from getting published on the Wii.

Not towards the game at all. Dead Space is *crag* amazing. I don't like rail shooters.

Besides the rails, I'd buy the game.


...Ah, never mind, i guess only I actually know what I'm talking about.
