Even with Dead Space 3, video game sales are slowing

Way-to-PlayElectronic Arts (EA) recently released Dead Space 3 video game, a sequel to its Dead Space game. The very first Dead Space was released in 2008. Electronic Arts is the world’s second largest video game maker. Dead Space is a story about adventures of Isaac Clark, an engineer who does not talk and mainly fix things and John Carver, how they have to repair their damaged spaceship, escape from a problem causing planet, and return to earth without getting caught by Necromorphs. This horror game is filled with mystery and grander universe. The game appeals to everybody. With its optional side missions that allow resource gathering and added content makes the game more interesting.

All console games providers including Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo are struggling with slow sales lately. Some say lack of new consoles is contributing to the sluggish sales of games. Only PlayStation 4 is scheduled for release later this year. Another reason is more and more gamers are flocking to Internet based mobile-based games due to advancements in smartphones and its technology. Another reason is lack of new titles. EA alone cut its yearly new games of 60 to about a dozen a year.
