Electronic Arts

Found your problem.

They cited poor sales? Wasn't the remake of the first one a hit? Even though it was competing with a bunch of great new shit at the time?

Yeah, but the writing was on the wall when it came to Xbox Game Pass a few months later. If Microsoft deal was better than burning its sales, then that was it.

Also, there was some other rumors that the sequel wasn’t green lit immediately since the sales of the first game didn’t meet EA expectations. Who knows it that can be attributed to missing Halloween and holidays.

I think Dead Space 2 remake will never come. Motive is working on the next BF and the Iron Man game, that look like safer investments than a sequel of a game that failed commercially (in their books).

Meh. I really disliked Dead Space 2. The time altering ability made the game too easy so I didn't put any points into it. Then I get to that one regen boss where you have to use it to open a flippin' door before it smashes you. Really dumb to have an optional ability that becomes mandatory for like one part of the game (and to open a dang door at that). I never got past that door, and I never completed the game.

The first Dead Space is awesome though, but I'm not sad there won't be a ~~third~~ fourth(???). Never would have bought it because the ability tomfoolery in the second.
