Donno i m lost!!
Visceral Games may be looking to employ EA's proprietary graphics engine, the DICE-developed Frostbite 2.0, for a new title in the Dead Space series. NowGamer points to a job listing seeking environmental artists for a new Montreal-developed Dead Space property, together with a tweet from DICE's Johan Andersson in which the rendering architect teased a visit to one of EA's “Frostbite-powered studios” in Montreal.

what do u guys think?i personally think its unnecessary.dead space is pretty impressive as it is and its also very hardware friendly on PC too.going on FB 2.0 will make it shitty looking on consoles and ridiculously demanding on PC.

I donno, I think that the gorier and exquisite the level of detail in the gruesome, the better it is for a horror game :p

dunno... :p but still if u think from a diffrnt perspective , graphics and the level of detail such as ripped body parts and twisted organic stuff is wat adds up to make dead space much more gory and freaky....and also , dont forget the lightning effects in this game , the lightning effects were beautiful..... :) if v enhance wat v already have then probably it will look AWSOME..... :D but i agree to the point that it may not remain computer friendly....

If they can make the gore more...... gorier then I'm up for it :D

Ahhh..... I remember the nonstop necromorphs carnage in the elevator in the mining area, near the final chapter. That place plus The Saw = Pure Limbs Flying, Blood Splattering, Bone Cracking Fun.

LOL I used to repeat that part just cuz it was so much fun looking at necromorphs jump down onto my saw blade and then get chopped into pieces xD. Improve that and its a must buy for me :)

More suspense, more horror, less shooting NAO!

I don't care about the graphics since they were already amazing.

Hopefully they introduce some aspects which people might ACTUALLY care about, personally graphics don't make a game as much as gameplay does, they need to bring innovation to deadspace.

Need for Speed RUN has proved FROSTBITE is a robust engine and can do many genres. Exploding walls and necromorphs will be a perfect match.

I say they should just remove thos assualt rifles, falmethwrowers and super gloves from the game all together.It's just Issac and his trusty Plasma cutter and a whole lot of necros.DS 2 was just too action pakced to be scary.

City of Target killings -_-
That's so unnecessary imo, game will become more hardware demanding then, just designed more scariest environment/Necromorphs and less action game, DS was suppose to be a survivor horror not kinda action shooter game.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
