Dead Space: Extraction

I was quite confident that this would be decent and a cut above the standard 'on-rails' style shooter but I didn't expect the game to be as good as it is. For fans of horror, action and story driven experiences then Dead Space: Extraction is highly recommended.

This is a completely different gameplay experience from the game that is available on the XBOX 360 & PS3 but that does not mean it has been hastily put together and just thrown out onto Nintendo's console.

The developers and the Wii have somehow created a Dead Space game that has amazing graphics, sound, atmosphere and a story mode that had me hooked from start to finish, so much so that I had to complete the game in one sitting. Superb.

For fans of Dead Space this game has to be played through at least once and I cannot believe this is running on the Wii. They nailed the Dead Space universe with this game and the play through with different characters keeps things fresh and involving.

Game may be a little short but it was something I am really glad I believed in as the game payed off in a big way.

Highly recommended.

Possibly the worst game ever, and should be remaned Wasted-Space.

If there was ever a game that was designed to make you feel divorced from the action, then this is the winner.

Dead Space is a slow-paced rail game, that leads you around by the nose and gives you constant prompt to tell you what to do, to the extent of making you, the player, feel like an optional extra.

The only thing that you really get to do is point and shoot (which can be fun- but not in this game), and the creators have even messed up on this one, because the cross-hair feature is so big and bright, that you can barely seee the target and therefor get to miss out on most of the gory fun. This becomes even worse in two player mode.

It should come with an auto-shoot option so that you can leave the game to play with itself & then you can go and do something less boring instead.

The overall experience is tedious and frustrating; at times you will find yourself compelled to yell at the screen when the 'action' makes you go in directions that no rational, or even insane, human being would take.

As far as the exciting story is concerned; by the end of the first level I couldn't have cared less.

Dull Dull Dull Dull Dull.
