Dead Space 2 outselling first game '2-to-1,' EA says

Booo !

Before Mirrors Edge 2 comes out id love them to patch the PC version of Dead Space 2 so we can get the Elite suits and rewards for beating hardcore >_

Well deserved. I hope they take a second chance on Mirror's Edge.

Finished it on Zealot (first playthrough) over the weekend. It definitely has more startles, but it isn't as scary or refreshing as the first one.

It's a great game, but the entire time I kept thinking "Was this really deserving of a sequel? It's not much different than the first."

Dead Space was an amazing game, Dead Space 2 did everything the first did right and added more to the mix. This is well deserved, loved Dead Space 2.

Good game. Could only play it at day time so I wouldn't have to sleep with the light on :P



...it's scared me

I REALLY want mirror's edge 2 :(

Well deserved for this quality game. I finished the game but haven't given the multiplayer a go yet. Is there a co-op survival/horde mode?

Thank god. At least this franchise is saved. I was skeptical of DS2 since many of the original creators left for Sledgehammer Games. That and the bigger focus on action and tacked on multiplayer. But everyone seems extremely positive, so I'll probably buy it soon.

I think so far my favorite part of this franchise is that the story crosses so many platforms. Graphic Novel starts then animated movie picks up from there, then dead space 1, then the anime Aftermath, then another graphic novel, then the iOS title, then the Ignition motion comic/mini games, then dead space 2. Oh and they released an actual novel taking place a hundred years before any of it!
Did I miss anything?

Glad to see im not alone in waiting for a mirror's edge 2!

but dead space too was a great game, and im happy they made the sequel, enjoying it so far.

How much chunk of this is from PC sales? To bless us with the DLC? Even after they said no?

BRING ON MIRROR'S EDGE 2!

First one was a under-rated game IMO. Was an amazing game and it does deserve a sequel with a lot to improve on.

Can possibly even support the Kinect.

HEY EA MAYBE YOU SHOULD MAKE ANOTHER MIRRORS EDGE HUH

Mirror's Edge 2 definitely needs to happen.

I think Mirror's Edge 2 should...

Oh. Never mind...

Clearly this is due to the awesome marketing campaign.

What I don't understand is, WTF isn't everyone buying these games? Gamers are always complaining like lil' bitches about how, "there's no innovation." and, "there are too many cookie cutter games." Yet somehow seem to justify spending over a BILLION dollars every year on yet another Call of Duty title, or on another Halo title, meanwhile leaving some of the best, innovative, fresh, original and polished games this gen (Dead Space, Mirror's Edge, Alan Wake, Enslaved, etc.) sitting on store shelves as if those games would give you cooties or something for buying them.

As awesome as Dead Space was, and as so much better as Dead Space 2 is, there is no reason EA should be reporting anything other than Dead Space 2 is selling four or five times faster than Dead Space - seriously, we should be looking at Red Dead Redemption numbers here; Dead Space 2 is just that deserving.

What's wrong with people? Do we seriously have to slap the name Call of Duty to the front of every worthy game just to get it to sell in numbers deserving of the game?

Call of Duty: Attack of the Necromorphs
Call of Duty: Return of the Necromorphs
Call of Duty: Siege of the Gleaming Police State
Call of Duty: Escape Bright Falls
Call of Duty: Far Future Post - Post Apocalyptic Warfare

Seriously, what the hell are we turning into? Looking at games like this selling down the crapper, just makes me sad to be a gamer. Publishers cannot continue to put $20 million to $50 million a pop into quality titles like this if people do not step up to the plate and buy them. At the rate it's going, the only games that are going to be left in the future are Halo, Call of Duty and a boat load of cheap and shitty iPhone games, who's only commonality with current console games, will be the names of familiar (and defunct) IPs slapped on the splash screen.
