Dead Space (PS3) 4.7 5 15 20
Good Game. It is not a game for a little kid. i'm 15 and get kind of freaked out. It's a very good story line i would reccomend it to my friends. The only thing i wish they had on this game would be that you could have online play. 12/21/2009
Gore Splattering Greatness You may have heard this game has solid gameplay, but a bit of a lackluster story. The story, at first glimpse, just seems like a branch off the Alien franchise, but there are elements that can be appreciated. For starters, I've never heard of extraterrestrial life being coalesced with religion. Without providing any spoilers, I want to also say that the game has a pretty solid and dramatic backstory. Picking up the audio and text logs is a plus if the story itself intrigues you.Gameplay is similar to the last two Resident Evil titles. Camera is behind the shoulder, weapons and armor are upgradable, laser targeting allows strategic dismembering (which is VERY useful if you want to conserve ammunition), and of course there are physical attacks that include a heavy gunslap and powerful stomp with the foot, also useful for conserving ammo. In some rooms, the gravity level is 0, but thanks to your equipment, you have the ability to jump wall to wall, usually having to do this to overcome obstacles. Very fun.Sequences with the aliens can be disturbing and frightening when mixed with the dark, abandoned enviroment. Monsters are incredible, ugly, and atrocious. Each part of their body is detachable. Your kills can literally be customizable, but then again, so can your deaths. The monsters on the dark space station are just as anxious to sever your limbs as you are to escape.To finish this, I just want to say my only qualm with the game was the exploration seemed limited and linear, but not too much. Other than that, my complaints for Dead Space are nye. 08/22/2009
Not too bad! I enjoyed the game, although I found it very simplistic. The story line was linear and more of a shoot 'em up than a horror game. Not very original, either. There were elements from the Resident Evil series and from the Silent Hill series. Still, it was creepy and gory enough that I wouldn't let anyone under 15 play it. I was hoping for something along the lines of the first Silent Hill, which was so innovatively creepy I had trouble playing it if I was alone in the house.I would recommend that you rent it first to see if you can handle the gore and don't mind the simplicity of the game. Also, this game is not for smaller TVs. I played it on a 29 inch and missed out on a lot because I couldn't read the smaller print on the screen. This game was obviously engineered for a widescreen, at least 36", and for very young eyes.All in all, not too bad, but nothing to brag about. 12/21/2008
NIGHTMARES ON THE BIG SCREEN THIS GAME HAS THE UGLIEST MONSTERS. THIS IS THE KIND OF GAME THAT YOU WANNA PLAY IN HIGH-DEF. YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TOOLS AND TRICKS TO PULL OFF THIS SPACE ADVENTURE. BUT IT CAN GET CONFUSING BECAUSE YOU HAVE ALOT OF ROOMS AND ALOT OF OBJECTIVES.ITS DEFINETLY A CHALLENGE TO KILL THESE MUTANTS BECAUSE THEY REGENERATE !! 03/05/2009
