Square Enix Will Publish Dead Island In The Americas

"In today’s edition of “news we didn’t see coming” Square Enix has scooped up the American distribution rights for Dead Island."

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! They will ruin it!

[ftwrthtx]

All Square Enix is doing is helping Deep Silver cover more ground with joint marketing.

[FACTUAL evidence]

only publishing!!!! Nothing to worry about...it's like how EA only published deadspace, but made by viceral games.

[doctorstrange]

Visceral Games were originally EA Redwood Shores and are fully owned by EA, and Dead Space was commissioned and financed by EA.

A better example would have been

"Nothing to worry about...it's like how EA only published Left 4 Dead, but made by Valve. "

How can square ruin that which will fail anyway!the game already looks crappier than dead rising 2!Btw dead rising 1 was ok but nothing special.

[NYC_Gamer]

they really want to get some western market share

[VampiricDragon_]

square NA is publishing alot of japanese games........ this is less than publishing. Its just distributing

[BubbleSniper]

this game just went down a spot for me

[MidnytRain]

People need to stop saying this; Square Enix has nothing to do with the quality of the game at all. They'll just be the ones making sure that we actually get to play it.

[BubbleSniper]

i dont need to stop sayin anything

SE is garbage with capital GARBAGE

choke on your cherry if u dont like it LOL

they should focus on helpin the japanese compete with other countries excelling at making games this gen, not sellin out!

As much I'd hate to support Square-Enix, this just means Dead Island will get more exposure, hopefully.
