Buy Dead Space 2, get special armor for Dragon Age II

Dead Space 2 developer Visceral Games and the developer of Dragon Age II, BioWare, are both internal Electronic Arts studios. Apparently, these two teams got together at the last company picnic and came up with a neat Dead Space 2/Dragon Age II crossover.

Players who purchase Dead Space 2 (which will be in stores next week) will receive a download code for the “Ser Isaac of Clarke” armor set in Dragon Age II. Modeled after Isaac Clarke’s signature spacesuit, the set will include armor, boots, gauntlets and a helm that offers increased protection but requires high dexterity and cunning.

Dexterity and cunning are required to wear the armor, but through the magic of the Internet, all you have to do to see a trailer featuring the armor is click the link below. (more…)

Dead Space 2 launch trailer dismembers the imagination

To the left you will find a candid photo of our very own Senior Editor Nicole Kline, utterly blown away in awe at just how awesome Dead Space 2 gameplay is.  The picture was taken as she played the demo at PAX Prime last September, and you can expect it on every piece of coverage here at Warp Zoned on Visceral Games’ latest entry in their sci-fi odyssey.  EA has released a new trailer depicting some of the jaw dropping moments you can expect from the sequel, as well as quotes from popular gaming media outlets on just how great it is.  Even if you haven’t played the first one, you should absolutely check the video below.  As I said in our initial podcast, I truly believe this is going to do for Visceral Games what Uncharted 2 did for Naughty Dog.
