Special Features

 

  • Dismemberment: This game's core mechanic is the strategic dismemberment of alien appendages. In true survival horror fashion, you must conserve ammo - in true Hollywood horror fashion, it's all about seeing bone fragments and arterial spray fly across the room. Enemies in the game are resilient. The conventional wisdom that a headshot will stop an alien is thrown out in Dead Space.
  • Setting and Atmosphere: Dead Space is an immersive, interactive horror movie experience. An emergent, panic-inducing audio system, an innovative Minority Report-style HUD, and a nuanced, scary pace that will sink you into the game experience.
  • Unique Weaponry: Stasis Gun is used to slow charging aliens and to help solve puzzles. The Gravity Gun and unique projectile-based weaponry are mining tools - your ability to upgrade weapons increases as you progress through the game.
  • Zero Gravity: Survive and destroy the aliens in Zero G environments. Manipulate gravity with Havok physics to solve puzzles and fight enemies.

Review

 




In the future, Earth's appetite for resources has become a major motivator for deep space exploration. Immense, privately-owned and operated mining ships called "planetcrackers" orbit planets and use sophisticated equipment to carve out entire city-sized chunks of rock, and reduce them to component elements and raw ore.

Communications with one of these planetcrackers, the USG Ishimura, have ceased while the ship is engaged in deep space mining operations.

The company's top engineer, Isaac Clarke, is sent to discover the problem and fix it. Once onboard the vessel, Clarke discovers that a terrifying alien presence has taken over the ship, and has horribly killed the crew. Weaponless and terrified, this lone engineer is burdened with much more than simple survival - he holds the fate of all mankind in his hands.

Once you get used to the camera angle, which is a bit different from most other games, this game becomes amazing. I can honestly say this is a scary game, possibly the scariest iv ever played in my life. Its fun and challenging too and has a good story.

Overall 4/5!
would have been 5 if there was a switch to First person mode.

Customer rating: 1 out of 5 stars Could of been a good game. If EA didnt bork the port.

Quite simply unplayable and unimpressive.

Bellow par graphics and texture resolution.

That's if you can even get that far. The game is simply unplayable due to the shear amount of bugs inside the control configuration. Its been around 8 months and still no patch. Don't waste your good money on an unfinished unsupported game.

Shame really it looked like it could be fun.
