When the said a new Dead Space s coming everyone thought it would be having the same gameplay mechanics the franchise normally has. And i thought the same. Lets imagine Nintendo anncounced SMG2 and you see the first trailer and its and on-rails Jump and Run. Everyone would think that this is bullshit because people have a predetermined imagination about existing brands. And I say they rightfully have that. EA is only using the name Dead Space because it made so many people excited about a new game of the series. If they just had said that they are doing a Dead Space like game for Wii, nobody could be rightfully complaining if it turned out on-rails. But as it is right now it totally sux. (I always wanted DS for my PS3 but after they said its coming to Wii I thought I would wait for that, because I thought it is the same genre. See thats what I mean with predetermination). |
@ Bold: I agree. I buy this statement more as to the faustrations(sp?) of the users on VG. ...As with anything the more that comes out about the game, views may change, but the overraction is just outragous right now. =/
The Interweb is about overreaction, this is what makes it great!
...Imagine how boring the interweb would be if everyone thought logically?
