Demand a sequel/HD Remaster of DEAD SPACE!

You should sign this petition so a new generation of gamers can experience a franchise that reinvented the Survival Horror genre. This franchise should get a remaster on current generation consoles (xbox one & playstation 4) to spark interest in the franchise again.

Dead Space is a science fiction survival horror video game developed by EA Visceral Games for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The game was released on all platforms through October 2008. The game puts the player in control of an engineer named Isaac Clarke, who battles the Necromorphs, reanimated human corpses, aboard an interstellar mining ship, the USG Ishimura.

Dead Space was cited as being groundbreaking for it's unique game design because it didn't use a traditional heads-up display; instead, all information is relayed to the player via holographic projections from Isaac's Resource Integration Gear (RIG) spacesuit and the weapons themselves. For example, a small holographic display is mounted on Isaac's weapons to indicate ammunition count while aiming; also, the "health meter" indicating Isaac's condition is integrated into the suit spine. Item management was risky because the game still progresses in real time, so the player is in danger of being attacked while doing this.

Combat involves an original mechanism called "strategic dismemberment", in which the player must cut off limbs or sections of the Necromorphs to defeat them. It completely changed the way you encountered enemies in a videogame.

I was blown-away when I played DEAD SPACE! The most terrifying videogame I have ever played and I'm a huge fan of the Survival Horror genre.

It paved the way for future developers to clear the HUD display and make the gaming experience more immersive to players.

Jump-out-of-your-seat (Literally!) scares that I will never forget.

Dead Space was both a critical and commercial success. Xbox World 360 awarded the Xbox 360 version a 91 out of 100, stating the game was a "nail-biting experience," driven forward by a "film-worthy" script and "inspired" setting, and that it was "Bioshock in space: every bit as disturbing, just as meticulously designed and easily as believable. PlayStation World awarded the game 9/10 and a PSW gold award, stating that Dead Space is the "world's scariest game", saying "This is bold, bleak gaming from the haunting opening credits to the pulse pounding finish." IGN rated the game 8.7/10, saying it was "visually striking, everything from the holograms to the Necromorph is incredible." GamePro awarded the game a 5/5.

Please help sign this petition so we can get this franchise back to it's Survival Horror roots!
