I'll be reviewing this as part of the exchange of reviews.Tintor2 (talk) 14:29, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ProtoDrake: Great work with the article. I found no notable flaws other than what is the DLC is about. The only other issue I found was the arrangement of the reception. It is well written but it confused me that there are two paragraphs discussing the game and then there Wii and PS3 versions are split into two paragraphs. Maybe it would be better to first show the metacritic score and then mention the reviews? Other than that, I'll gladly pass the review once this part of the reception is revised. Also "Sales of Extraction were very poor; during its first week on sale in North America, the game sold just over 9000 units. This was attributed by industry analysts to a lack of marketing from Electronic Arts.[62][63] While the team were surprised by the low sales, the positive critical reception validated their belief in the game. Papoutsis also commented that sales "picked up steam" after release rather than having an initial high spike.[48] Johnston attributed its lack of commercial success to its mature content on a console commonly associated with young audiences.[64]" could also work out as the ending of the reception since it's the developer's feedback to such positive reception the game had.Tintor2 (talk) 18:40, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Tintor2: I've switched some paragraphs round. Can't for the moment find a way of integrating the PS3 version better. It's just an oddball that didn't get a lot of coverage, or sales. --ProtoDrake (talk) 19:36, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good work. My only complaints were addressed. I guess you aim to make Dead Space a good topic right? Tintor2 (talk) 19:51, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Tintor2: Maybe. But it's...a lot. But probably conducive to a slow burn as the series appears to have had its limbs cut off after resurrecting. --ProtoDrake (talk) 19:55, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
