During their press conference today, EA announced a release date of January 25th, 2011 for Visceral Games' highly anticipated Dead Space 2. They've also stated that never-before-seen footage will be premiered at (cough) Sony's press conference tomorrow.

I'm excited to play Dead Space 2, but irritated that they are adding unnecessary multiplayer to yet another game.

WTH.

I thought this was coming out in Oct or Nov??? Probably got pushed back to add stupid mulitplayer to yet ANOTHER GAME THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE MULTIPLAYER.

Gosh. Is there like a petition or something I can sign that works toward banning this whole "multiplayer movement in games that should not have multiplayer"??? (See Bioshock 2, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Dead Space 2, list goes on and on and on...)

Dead Space 1 was perfect. This will most likely suck. AND ANOTHER SERIES RUINED BY THE 12 YEAR OLD GAMERS OF TODAY. NO MORE SCARES, MORE ACTION AND GORE, BULLET TIME AND JETPACKS AND MULTIPLAYER. OH BOY.

Although I'm excited to play the game I'm afraid from what I'm seeing that it will end up being a disappointment. If anything I felt that the first Dead Space could have been scarier.

Adding multiplayer to games is all about money. It's about selling DLC and achievements, which are a big moneymaker for a game. Face it, when we're done with singleplayer games, we don't play them. However, there is no "end" to multiplayer games really, unless all the achievements are attained and the player is then bored with the game.

Unfortunately, this is the case and many games that should be selling because of great gameplay and plotlines (games that should be singleplayer only) end up having to get a multiplayer that doesn't make sense.

However, I'm never opposed to co-op multiplayer, since that actually has a point with regards to following a plot.

We dictate the flow of the industry with our dollars, not with our complaints.

Some of us have had to deal with it for a very long time...

Designers (not pointing out anyone specific) are happy to look for your support but when you ask for it back, in form of games you like to play, few years down the road... they are quick to forget.

Anyway, as it should be, I reserve my judgment until I see more of the final product.

Resident Evil 5 also had multiplayer. I never played it. You guys could just do the same.

I agree with most of you that mulitplayer for this game is useless. The first Dead Space was near perfect and one of my favourite games on this generation. Does anyone know if this multiplayer is PVP or CO-OP?

PVP would be pointless Imo, but Co-op is always welcomed.

It is supposed to have 2-8 person multiplayer, My first guess would be a 4v4 type like in Left 4 Dead . I wouldn't be surprised one bit to see them add some sort of horde mode like in Gears 2 (I think this might actually be fun).

I also agree with the others here that the first game was perfect just being a single player. It gave you the feeling that you were truly alone and made the game that much more scary and of course fun. I love the first game (working the "epic 3 tier engineer" achievement right now).

I have been waiting for them to come out with the downloadable prequel game they promised to show what happened between the first and second game. But as everyone knows, you can nearly die of old age waiting for a game developer to get something done.
