Dead Space's most gruesome cake bake-off

by Dustin Burg { Mar 10th 2008 at 1:45PM }

Recently, MTV Multiplayer had a chance to sit down and chat Dead Space with senior producer Glen Schofield. And not only do we learn how awesomely cool Dead Space is, but we also learn that their dev team is comprised of some crafty bakers.

In their interview, Schofield mentioned that their team became so close throughout Dead Space's dev cycle that they hosted an in-house Dead Space cake bake-off. Because, you know, nothing screams space alien murder like a sugary sweet cake. And, as you can see above, the bake-off was successful at not only producing rather gruesome looking Dead Space themed confections, but also at boosting the dev team's blood sugar. We need to hold a cake bake-off ... an X3F roxorz your soxorz themed baking challenge. Hmm, we'll work on that. Stay tuned ...

*cough* System Shock *cough*

You're never going to win the ripoff-in-a-genre contest. It'll all go back to DOOM, anyway.

No joke, my friend's company The Collective pitched this idea to EA, same "engineer in Space Horror" concept. EA turned it down and 3 years later, whaddya know.

it's different when you give a company an idea and they run with it without your involvement. much different than tweaking System Shock to Bioshock or DOOM 3 into Halo or what have you. it's just straight dirty.

EA is just a bunch of jerk-offs IMO.
