EA can't use that slogan of in space no one can hear you scream. That belongs to the movie alien.

It has been used in more than just Aliens. That may be one of the most overused lines ever.

I think it can lead to a lawsuit unless EA came to some type of agreement with the people that made alien which I doubt they did.

They innovated with the strategic dismemberment. I'm cutting them a break regarding the slogan considering it's just a slogan. ;)

Agreed, unless they paid for it. But, hopefully the game is at least worthy of its usage. I will find out tonight. :D

Not good enough. EA's going to have to do that. Until I see something different flash on tv4g then it won't be good enough.

I know its a good slogan for something scary in space but you ought to have enough creativity to come up with something clever on your own.

MAN, I am sick of posts not coming out. What the heck!?!?

Anyways, as I was saying, Aliens and beyond used variants of the phrase, but the only one that really used the phrase was the original Alien from 1979. I also dont recall anything worthwhile using that phrase since....

Alien - one of the best movies of all time, by the way. Some of Ridley Scotts finest work.

I think what he means is THAT is the quote Dead Space is using, not the one from Alien. I'm pretty sure thats the one, as well.

ARRG! Two out of three posts that just go poof! Nice one, Gamespot!

Yeah, I plan on waiting to play it until dark, turn off all the lights and crank up the volume on my big screen TV, and hopefully get scared enough to weep.... for joy! :D

Maybe if the movie alien was not one of the best horror/sci fi flicks to ever come out maybe they would be able to get away with using that slogan but there are too many people that know about and like the movie alien. I can't see them getting away with using it.

Wow someone likes aliens better than alien I guess there are some people that are like that. I've always liked the first one best. The second movie was just a bunch of killing going on but the first one actually had a story where you got to get to know some of the crew members.

I though the second was best myself. The third one was by far the worse.

There is a Superman vs Aliens comic which I would recommend to any aliens fans. I though it was really well written.

I like the third one better than the second one because that has a story as well and its pretty good. As for the alien movies after the third I have not come across anything all that great.

It could be a homage to the movie? Seeing as horror movies like Alien, Aliens, The Thing etc. has influenced Dead Space quite a bit. Not everything has to be a rip-off you know...

''In Dead space no one can hear the dead alive''

Not sure how you guys don't get the logic behind all these lines.

It is derived from the fact that sound cannot travel through a vacuum... thus, no one can hear you scream in space.
