Say goodbye to EA Redwood Shores. The once dryly named studio most recently responsible for Dead Space and the upcoming Dante’s Inferno and Dead Space: Extraction has a new, slightly more extreme name: Visceral Games.
It’s been two weeks since we had anything to say about Dead Space: Extraction, so EA has seen fit to send out new screens to keep the Wii exclusive on the radar.
Details on Electronic Arts’ video game interpretation of Dante’s Inferno, announced last October, have been hard to come by, but UK’s PSM3 has first details. What is it? God of War in Hell, apparently.
EA Redwood Shores was on hand at last week’s EA Label gathering to show off a bit of Dead Space, the deep-space thriller that, until last week, left me feeling rather cold… and not in a good way.
Leading up to last week’s event all of the stuff I saw about the game made me feel like it was another shooter, albeit one set in space, but one that didn’t seem to offer anything new or interesting to the formula of scary shooters.
But after spending ten minutes or so watching a demonstration and then a few minutes controlling a hapless space engineer, I’ve got a taste for the game.
