no surprise really...

Dead Space 2 PC Not Planned

Get ready to be cheesed off. We've already mentioned EA's financial results in our previous news about DA 2. Well, the publisher doesn't have Dead Space 2, Visceral Games' action horror sequel, in its Fiscal Q4 2011. Entries for consoles and handhelds were noted, but no word on a PC version at all.

Having the PC edition at a later date seemed like a logical idea; that is until EA public relations revealed: "As of right now a PC sku is not in the plan" (thanks, Blue).

No explanations were offered for the time being. We were recently informed that Dead Space 2 will focus more on action and less on horror elements.

my console keel 10x pc games a day
my in-between casual games kill 10x AAA tiles a day

W T F ??

That's total bullshit !

[Jabberwocky]

oh well, their loss
They don`t make it for PC, I won`t buy it. I bought the first one, and found it to be quite an enjoyable game.. for R100. (What it was worth)

Well that's a shame, but word is they are going a more action oriented route and dropping much of the horror. If that's the case then I don't want to play it anyway, since the reason I loved the original DS was the creepy horror atmosphere where the action came second to the atmosphere and mood.

Often these things get said than like a few months after its release they confirm they are porting to PC. So don't give up yet, or even better - get a console >_<

I can't say it better.

For now I'm happy with PC gaming. I mean I haven't even played the first Dead Space yet and I'm a horror gaming fan. There are just so many games. But one day I may get a console. I like all the exclusives that the PS3 is getting and I like the social games of the Wii. I think I may have to get a couple of consoles.

Stop and think for a moment.

Alien: creepy, psychological horror movie.

Aliens: action movie.

Both are brilliant. So if Dead Space 2 is the series' Aliens, I'm happy.

I never thought about it that way. I have both those movies in collectors edition too .

I suppose I'll wait and see what happens, I'll have to get a console at some point anyway since I'm quite limited on just the PC platform.

Time to start saving .

ah the joys of multiple platform gaming...

Exactly thats the reason I played it in the first place.
