Another story-based game which really doesn’t need multiplayer.

Great!. Glad to see more developers wising up to the idea that if there’s any manual aiming in a game, then there must be online co-op or multiplayer to get people to not just rent the game.

Oh goody, another case of “This is a great single player game and we don’t need to add multiplayer…. but someone high up thinks it’s a good idea so we’ll have to do it anyway”.

Yes, please let them copy Uncharted 2. Only without the pointless multiplayer.

The only way Dead Space multi would be interesting is if its like Left 4 Dead Versus.

Which actually might be fucking awesome now that I think about it. Like Dead Space Extraction but with everyone playing at once, helping each other out, welding doors as others hold off the simple Necro horde. Other players control Special Necromorphs.

Hope its a separate coop mode and nothing else. I really cant see competitive working and i dont want the main campaign to be built around the idea more then one person can play it.

So yeah, separate coop missions only please EA.
