Rebooted was back in 2004, when EA still had control of the trademark (and trademarks need to be actively defended to be retained) and probably still had plans to try to acquire the remaining rights. It's been suggested that the game that became Dead Space was originally intended to be Shock 3, but EA was unable to negotiate sane terms with Star Insurance for the use of the IP in the early stages, and gave up the trademark after that. Before that point, they needed to defend the trademark to keep it.Quote by Kolya:

True. But they do have the 'System Shock' trademark.
