Support NeoGAF

[Skiesofwonder]

Awesome news for HD-only console owners.


This was a pretty awesome Wii game.... when you rented it (never had enough content to justify the $50 price tag). So $15 is pretty darn good considering there will probably be some extra content added to the package.

But actually not having IR control could be a real bummer to the gameplay. Hopefully the PSN version will have move support. Nonetheless, it is a very cinematic experience that should not be missed by any Dead Space fans.

 

[Mr.Green]

Move support is a given. Natal on the other hand? Pew pew?

 

[darkwing]

this thing will die without Move support on the PSN

 

[Neuromancer]

Xbox 360 needs a light gun dammit. It has everything else. =\

 

[FunkyPajamas]

Paging codecow!

Improved graphics? Move/Natal support? Right price? online co-op?

Please answer all of the above (separately) with yes/no.

 

[InfiniteNine]

It's excellent. I reviewed it.

Thanks, good review. Nice to see it keeps up with the original DS well, so that cements it as a buy for me when it comes out on PSN.

 

[timetokill]

I bought it at $50 because I'm a Dead Space fanatic, and while I loved the game I agree that it was priced way too high.

But playing it with dual analogs? :lol Yeah, okay.

 

[szaromir]

That's what would be awesome.

Yup yup.

And on the second part... I'm pretty sure the whole point of this port is for EA to have some stuff ready for the Natal and Move launches, respectively.

i bought it like 1 month after release for something like 12 to 17 euros

 

[A Human Becoming]

No, more like no one wants to pay $50 for a fucking rail shooter.

I'm sure people will for Sin & Punishmenet 2.

It probably wasn't worth $50, but $40? Absolutely.

 

[Rated-Rsuperstar]

HD, trophies, and for 15 bucks. Sounds great.

i suspect sales of that will be even lower then dead space extraction to be honest
i bought it though

 

[yoopoo]

Excellent game, makes for a great weekend rental.

 

[Kilrogg]

I love this generation.

 

[Snuggles]

Maybe it would defeat the whole purpose of controller free gameplay, but a lightgun style accessory for Natal would be a lot better than making a gunshape with my hand and pointing it at the screen or pretending to hold an invisible gun.

 

[pakkit]

man i really hope this game doesn't effect dead space 2.

Cant it scan in objects to use as controllers? I thought I saw something about that, or something similar.

 

[SolidSnakex]

man i really hope this game doesn't effect dead space 2.

Why would it?

 

[Mr.Green]

But playing it with dual analogs? :lol Yeah, okay.

Analog support will definitely be in but I'd be floored if it didn't support Move/Natal. Like I said, Move support is a no-brainer and I personally consider it confirmed. I'd also bet they'll try something out for Natal. And it will be legendary.

 

[Glass Soldier]

I'm sure people will for Sin & Punishmenet 2.

But that's the good kind of railshooter.

 

[pakkit]

Why would it?

That whole thread is pretty hilarious. I was one of the instigators, of course.

 

[JacksUsername]

Glad more people will be able to experience this game. Despite getting quite a few glowing reviews, the "on-rails" stigma at the time and price tag really hurt the chances of it reaching a lot of people who would otherwise enjoy it.

Oh, and thanks to the development team for giving us the option to reduce the effect of shaky cam, unlike a certain Resident Evil game that came out the same year.

 

[Shalashaska161]

As long as it has Move support it will be great, at least for Playstation people.

 

[ZZMitch]

I was thinking more of this:

but more Kevin Butler is always nice as well

That was awesome.

Electronic Arts Montreal is not proud to inofficially announce - and thus confirm rumours - that they are currently working on a port of Wii rail shooter "Dead Space Extraction". Work started in February 2010, a release should happen at the end of the year.

Here are the old rumours:

http://www.destructoid.com/rumor-dead-space-extraction-coming-to-xbla-psn-163020.phtml

As you said... old rumors

 

[Ninja Moomin]

.

fucking gif of the generation :lol

 

[Mithos]

man i really hope this game doesn't effect dead space 2.

I dunno but....

Dead Space Extraction Spoiler.

Spoiler

When Neil, Gabe, and Lexine escapes from Ishimura, their destination is "the Sprawl", and Dead Space 2 is played on "the Sprawl". Somehow I guess Extraction will effect Dead Space 2.

 

[I AM JOHN!]

An employee of EA Montreal. I don't want to post his CV in this thread, if you want to I can send it to a mod who will confirm it.

What's a CV?

 

[Speevy]

There seems to be a trend of selling some Wii games at half their retail price on PSN/XBLA.

Granted, they're not usually half as good as Dead Space Extraction.

 

[Nirolak]

What's a CV?

A curriculum vitae, better known as a resume.

 

[Shiggy]

What's a CV?

Curriculum Vitae - resume

 

[Quadrangulum]

I'll buy it if there's Move support.

 

[Shin Johnpv]

What's a CV?

It's the European version of a resume.

*edit*

beaten like a red headed step child.

 

[Ricker]

Good news if true,I rented the game on the Wii,got stuck in the middle of the game I guess, on a Boss,but I thought it was awesome,even with my suckiness with the controller...

 

[Stumpokapow]

As you said... old rumors

you misunderstand

shiggy confirmed that the game is coming to psn/xbla

since the information is firsthand (or secondhand from a confidential document, whatever), there is no source, so he's also provided a link to the last time this was rumoured.

 

[sixteen-bit]

HD, trophies, and for 15 bucks. Sounds great.

Trophies? Awesome.

 

[szaromir]

I was always wondering where Shiggy gets his info about Rare employees from.

 

[Lothars]

That's a great price for the game.

 

[Eteric Rice]

I'm sure people will for Sin & Punishmenet 2.

It probably wasn't worth $50, but $40? Absolutely.

No, S&P will probably bomb as well. Unless you sell these things for like $29.99 or so, you're not going to sell a ton.

 

[Bad_Boy]

Move/Natal support or not worth getting.

this.

 

[badcrumble]

Sounds nice, I enjoyed it on the Wii but yeah it was overpriced. Still a good game that makes pretty smart use of the Wiimote.

 

[Dead Man Typing]

It is a great game on Wii. Very cinematic and a lot of fun when played in co-op. Looks great too.

Bringing it to the 360 without some form of light gun is silly though. As stupid as the

looks, some form of Natal support would be better than using the dual analogue sticks. At least, I hope it would be... Switching weapons might be difficult.

 

[polyh3dron]

Yeah, I would have paid $15 for the Wii version.

I DID pay $15 for the Wii version

 

[Shiggy]

I was always wondering where Shiggy gets his info about Rare employees from.

I've got a great source for all of my information. Keep this secret!

 

[Stumpokapow]

I'm a little weirded out by everyone getting excited for Move/Natal support but seemingly without a way to play this game already.

You can get a Wii and this game for $175. That's not significantly more expensive than getting Move/Natal and this game, and if you like rail shooters (and thus are interested in this game), there are plenty of Wii options to justify the hardware purchase, let alone the non-rail shooter games that are fun to play on Wii.

If you're really an audio-visual buff, you've probably got a gaming PC, right? This game runs fine in Dolphin at 720p/1080p, so just pick up a Wiimote / wireless sensor bar and go to town.

*shrugs* I didn't know so many people here were excited for motion gaming and didn't actually own Wiis.

 

[szaromir]

How so? They could just make an abstract move for that, though I have no idea if Natal API will be any good with that stuff.

*shrugs* I didn't know so many people here were excited for motion gaming and didn't actually own Wiis.

I don't have a Wii but love Dead Space. Would rather play a light gun game with motion control than dual stick. Obviously Natal is $150 than forget it.

 

[ColonelColon]

How about a PC version?

 

[Minamu]

Sounds good to me. Move launch title please

I have a Wii (actually 2 if you count my gf's), but I'd rather play this on my PS3 with Move.

Even if I didnt though, I was planning on getting Move anyways, but not for this game.
