Dead Space: Extraction won’t use MotionPlus after all

Contrary to reports that surfaced yesterday, Dead Space: Extraction will not take advantage of Wii MotionPlus. EA COO John Pleasants did speak about MotionPlus on Thursday at the the 2009 Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference, but the discussion was mainly about EA Tennis and Tiger Woods. A representative from the company confirmed that Mr. Pleasants comments were misinterpreted. This news shouldn’t be all too surprising though because frankly, Extraction doesn’t seem to be the type of game that would truly benefit from the MotionPlus technology.
