Dead Space: Extraction (Wii)

There's always something going bump in the dark

Utilise weapons old and new with the Wii remote

The necromorph are as ugly as they are dangerous

Survival horror goes sci-fi in the Wii's scariest game

Rather than a slower paced survival horror, this is an on-the-rails lightgun style adventure. That means your character moves automatically as you aim and shoot at the screen with the Wii remote. There's much more to the gameplay than other similar games though, with the ability to choose multiple different paths and solve challenging in-game puzzles.

The action and atmosphere is still as intense as ever too, as you're forced to dismember the necromorph in order to ensure they stay (un)dead. It's not the sort of game you usually see on the Wii, but that could all change once gamers get their hands on this all-action thriller.

• Ground zero: The only official prequel to the smash hit survival horror - find out what happened before the events of the original game and the animated movie.
• Off-the-rails: Longer, deeper and more involved than any other lightgun game, with multiple routes to choose from and unique environmental puzzles to solve.
• Twist and shoot: Use new and familiar weapons such as the plasma cutter, ripper and line gun, now with more accurate motion-sensitive controls.
• Graphic violence: Stunning graphics and award-winning sound design live up to the standards of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 game.
• Safety in numbers: Drop-in/drop-out co-operative play allows a friend to join or leave the action at any time.
