Dead Space 2 Remake

So EA decided to say no to a Dead Space 2 remake because the Dead Space 1 remake didn’t sell as well as they wanted. What irritates me is Dead Space 1 remake didn’t sell as well as it should have because EA barely marketed the game. A lot of people didn’t even know it was being made or even came out. Had EA actually put some effort into marketing it and caring about it, I guarantee it would have sold much better. There is still a huge market for Dead Space. If there wasn’t, then games like Resident Evil wouldn’t sell as well as they do. And Dead Space 1 remake continues to sell as we speak because people are buying it used, downloading it, etc. EA isn’t tracking it anymore, so to them, no one is playing it. I don’t understand having control over a beloved IP and caring so little about it.

Dead Space 2 is great, but it absolutely could use the remake treatment. If for no other reason, than to help the game live on and be able to be played for a long time to come on newer systems. And now that Dead Space 1 remake has been out for a few years and has been played, a Dead Space 2 remake would sell much better because people are actually aware of its existance. EA is their own worst enemy, I swear. They’ll never be a good company. The only hope is the recent management changes and Glenn Scholfield trying to talk to them about doing another Dead Space. Just makes me sick when companies forget about or barely do anything with good IPs, like Sony with Bloodborne. I get that the gaming industry is a business but you’ve got to have some connection to gaming; to your consumers.

You’re leaving money on the table, EA. Do better.
