Dead Space 3 demo 'close to 2M' downloads

Joystiq - EA revealed nearly two million people have already downloaded the Dead Space 3 demo, at least 10 percent more than the total demo downloads for Dead Space 2.

Based on the 10 minutes or so I spent with it, that's probably not a good thing, if you're EA.

Playing it right now. Game is good so far, too much ammo and health packs, though... 30 mins in.

I can't remember ever reading stats about download volume for a multiplat game's demo, so I'm really not sure if it's "good" for EA; if they're reaching the "wider" cell phone audience that they so pine for.

And I'm not one of them. YAAAY!

But seriously, I have almost no interest in trying this game, which is odd as I enjoyed the first 2.

It's expected especially for the people who are on the fence about this game like I am. Now how many of those 2million will buy the game?

[showtimefolks]

haven't tried it will do so later. with so many games its not a day one must have title for me

i am sure it will do fine ratings wise. 7.5-8.5/10 imo

well it cemented my decision to NOT buy the game. its everything I feared. this is no longer a survival horror franchise

Downloaded the demo, not buying the game. Came across as a poor mix of Gears, Uncharted & Lost Planet. Micro transactions are the icing on the cake. If a company puts micro transactions in a game, they design the mechanics around them. As a consumer, I'm not supporting that.
