EA craves sequels for Dead Space, Army of Two, and Battlefield: Bad Company photo

EA has surprised more than a few people this past year with a slew of new IPs and an improving image in the eyes of many, myself included.

However, you have got to make sequels to fund these new properties, and you better believe EA has some sequels in store for us. We already told you about how Mirror's Edge is a planned trilogy, but that's nothing compared to what Variety was told recently.

EA Games president Frank Gibeau revealed that there is a "sequel idea planned" for both Battlefield: Bad Company and Army of Two, which makes perfect sense when you look at how unbelievably well the latter game sold.

Similarly, the executive producer on Dead Space, Glenn Schofield, has quietly talked about a sequel for the space-themed survival horror and the possibility of novels and even toys. All I know is that Isaac Clarke had better be in there, dammit.

If you were charged with the task of coming up with a title for the sequel to Army of Two, what would you name it? Chad suggests Army of Tooie.

I thought Army of two was ass cream and battlefied on a console was gargabe. If they can remkae battlefiled "2" to be more like Battlefield 2 on the PC, then we'll talk!

I would rather see the Dead Space team make an entirely new game. I could care less about a sequel to Dead Space, as enjoyable as it is.

Army of Two is already a sequel. The original game was called Army Of.

I think we can pass on an Army of Two sequel unless they bump up the effort.

How about:
"Army of Two: This time we swear it is not steaming pile of crap that you will trade on Goozex after playing for 15 minutes"

This name game business is more fun than the actual game. That's pretty sad.

Army of Two: Dos Muertos
It will take place in Mexico during a revolt. The big thing people will talk about is the dogs with bombs stapped to them, that the bandidtos send after you. It creates a moarl choice; head shot the dog or you die in an explosion :D
Viva La Revolution!

For those of you who didn't play Army of TWO singplayer (I personally loved the game). TWO is an abbreviation of...something. For the new PMC the two main characters created at the end of the story.

So the game may well be called T.W.O 2, or just T.W.O

You mean "celebratory fist-bump up the effort," right?

All Hell Brakes Loose. Again.

Also, Bad Company 2 would be awesome.

I really liked Army of Two and am waiting to get Battlefield from GameFly. I'd love sequels for both.

I'm too much of a pussy to place Dead Space. I admit it.

I knew EA would decide to start the milking treatment on Dead Space. Just when they start to turn over a new leaf, they're right back to their old ways. Bah.

Also, Army of Two: Episode 2.
