Dead Space 2 PC “not on the plan”

deadspace2

Bluesnews managed to get a response out of EA on the subject of the ominously absent PC SKU of Dead Space 2 in the firm’s financials on Monday, and it doesn’t look good.

“As of right now a PC SKU is not in the plan,” a rep confirmed to the site.

PC fans will not be pleased.

Many thought the firm had dropped a typo on its third-quarter fiscal release, when it listed the Visceral sequel as console-only.

EA originally said the title was coming to PC, PS3 and 360 during it’s announcement in December.

Dead Space 2 is now confirmed for a fourth quarter release in EA’s fiscal 2011, which means it’ll be out in the January-March quarter of calendar 2011.

Thats not right. Thats really is a bad thing.

first of all EA responsible for Dead Space franchise. We can speak about piracy for forever. Xbox 360 and Wii can be pirated too.

But the reason is that some people that play PC games bought Dead Space and now EA are saying: Sorry douches no sequels for you.

game devs will just have to loss their jobs, publishers will just lose more money. let pay them pay the price.

I love how people don’t bother trying to argue with BDH.
It’s obvious he’s wrong, he must know it himself, and no-one points it out to him.

Much funnier just to let him rant.

“Kyle Katarn FTMFW!”

Truer words have never been spoken. I really wish LucasArts would make a sequel, but given their recent track record….

I find that Dead Space 2 not coming to PC isn’t a killer, to be honest. The first one was good, but really wasn’t something to write home about, but thats just me.

On the decline of PC sales, I’m sure that if PC’s had a central PR department to push out news of the ‘Next best game or hardware’ they would sell a lot more. It seems that people here forget that MS and Sony have departments dedicated to selling the consoles and games to people, and they have huge budgets.

Also, just because one publishing house has shown that their PC sales are below the others doesn’t mean that PC sales are in decline across the board. I’m sure Valve, blizzard and several indie studios would like to have a word with you in that regards.

@72 It’s probably Blizzard’s fault that no-one buys any other games, they’re all still stuck paying for WoW every month. ;)
