Most assumed "Dead Space" Wii would be a visually adjusted port, but Electronic Arts today announced "Dead Space: Extraction," a new entry in the franchise with "innovative motion controls" in a first-person-perspective -- keep reading for details and a trailer.

"Dead Space: Extraction" isn't what you expected, readers. It's not a port of the "Dead Space" game you've already played, but an all-new installment.
"Extraction" is a first-person, motion control-driven "horror experience," according to the Electronic Arts press release. Translation? It's an on-rails shooter, not unlike "Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles."
"Extraction" is a prequel to "Dead Space" and doesn't take place on the familiar Ishimura. Players are dropped into the Aegis VII mining colony. It's not clear who the player is, but EA's said they're introducing a new heroine character that must be protected because she "may be their only hope for survival."
Almost sounds like an adventure the rest of us would like to have seen as downloadable content for the other versions, no? But before passing judgment, have a look at the trailer IGN published this morning.
The latest "Dead Space" game is coming to Wii this fall. Do you like it?
