EA's upcoming title Dead Space has finally received its official boxart unveiling. This outer space third-person shooter looks to provide more than just dismemberment inside the game but outside on the box as well. This makes the boxart a fitting tribute to the title and gives gamers a look at what to expect when they play the game inside.

This is by far my favorite boxart thus far.

    I'm looking quite forward to this, I love a good horror and this seems like it could deliver.

    Of course, they might have to change the boxart, 'too gory for the children' :P

    I really like it too, unlike a lot of other PS3 covers it has a great sense of balance and value too it.

    Im also getting really excited for Dead Space, especially after hearing a lot of journalists praising it in previews.

    How quickly the masses forget the "loyalty" EA has shown PS3 by popping out garbage games and crap ports. Don't b!tch about EA then but their crap!

    MGS4 European Cover OWNS everthing

    @Cesarcsrf

    Agreed. This "Dead Space" boxart has nothing on the MGS4 European boxart.

    The thing is, the guy who is producing the game, Glen Schofield, is delibarately trying NOT to do what EA does.

    I found this, its pretty interesting to hear what he thinks

    http://news.filefront.com/glen-schofield-on-eas-dead-space-as-m-plus/

    I dont know what my case was, but Iwas completely unaware that the game is being developed by EA until today...and I was shocked beyond all belief. Regardless, that dosent stop me for appreciating what this game is turning out to be, and I cant wait to see it blossom

    It looks kind of stupid.

    Who's hand is it, he's killing aliens, not humans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I can't really tell if that's a white guy or black guy's hand. Anyway, Dead Space looks interesting since it's something different from EA oh and Marcelis thanks for putting up that link, it really made me think that Dead Space can be a great game. If this game doesn't turn out great than there's always Spore for the pc.

    EA is not the evil company everone makes it! look at Burnout, and how much control Criterion Games has over that, and the ps3 and 360 versions ver indistinctable

    The game is aimed for a mature audience, from what the trailer contains
