Dead Space to release a week early

EA has announced that sci-fi survival horror Dead Space is to launch a week earlier than planned.

The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions will now be in the shops on 24th October. PC owners will have to wait until October 31st, though.

"The decision to bring it to fans earlier was due to completing the game early," EA said in a statement. Apparently it's now ready following "months of polishing".
