Game Informer's Web site has posted the cover of their October issue, which features an image of EA's new survival horror title Dead Space.
Their October exclusive cover story will reveal details on the game that is supposedly inspired by cult-classic film Event Horizon. The cover says "In the far reaches of space, humanity brings to light a forgotten alien scourge. Can one man cut through the darkness?"
It's great to see EA getting in on the genre that's making Capcom (and maybe Konami) so much money, not to mention their focus on new properties and original work. Besides, the whole concept of an Event Horizion-inspired game sounds a match made in horror heaven. We're definitely looking forward to hearing more details on this title.

Hopefully they can capture an atmosphere like System Shock 2.
If its an original EA game, the concept will be good, but the product will always come off as half baked.
Unless they've bought out another company that was 90% done this title and just want to stamp their branding on it. .... dice..
Then again I was high as a kite.
(reference ne1?)
Should I hold out hope for a Wii version? It is EA, after all.
I immediately thought of a big daddy when I saw this as well
@Pistolaero
I didn't cry, because dudes don't cry, but i was scared shitless for about a month back in 7th grade when it came out.
I came here to say: IS DAT SUM LITTLE BIG DADDY?
That would be a reference to BEETLEJUICE!!! Nice one.

Event Horizon is the ONE single movie that Paul W.S. Anderson has made thats actually worth watching. Its not the perfect Sci-Fi Horror movie (Alien(s)), but its definitely worth a watch or 2.
This game's got potential, as long as EA allows a GOOD developer make it...I wonder if Irrational Games is..oh..wait...nevermind.
Yeah, it's Madden.
