Manufacturer's Description

When an immense mining ship, the USG Ishimura, comes into contact with a mysterious alien artifact in a remote star system, its communications with Earth are mysteriously cut off. Engineer Isaac Clarke is sent to repair the Ishimura's communications array, but he arrives to find a living nightmare - the ship is a floating bloodbath, the crew unspeakably mutilated and infected by an ancient alien scourge. Clarke's repair mission becomes one of survival as he fights not just to save himself, but to return the artifact to the planet ... at any cost.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dead Good 26 Oct 2008
Platform for Display:Xbox 360
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
10/10 Seriously awesome. Buy it.

Basically what EA Redwood Shores have done is recreate Bioshock and set it in space. But the overall effect is much better than Bioshock.

It's a shooter/horror, starring you as Isaac, an engineer sent along with a rescue team to find out what happened to the USG Ushimura, a deep-space 'Planet Cracker' class mining vessel.

Things go wrong roughly 20 seconds into the first cut-scene, and from there on you're following the orders of what's left of your team as you attempt to get the Ishimura's systems back online, fighting off the hordes of beasties (Necromorphs) infesting the ship and trying to find out what happened to your girlfriend who was working there as part of the 1000-strong crew.

What makes Dead Space better than Bioshock is Isaac, he's an engineer, and all the weapons you get are things an engineer would be handy with so it's slightly more believable. You get stasis modules to slow down fast-moving machinery, you get Plasma Cutters for slicing legs off at the hips and arms off at the shoulders and heads off at the neck, flamethrowers for lighting enemies up en masse, Rippers - remote controlled saw blades for, that's right, you guessed it! And many more.

The fun comes when you combine different abilities, like when you've only got 4 plasma cutters left you can hit a Necro with stasis and take your time shooting off its limbs one by one then finishing it off with a nice and gory curb stomp.

You can keep your eyes open and deviate from the 'engineer roleplaying' because scattered around the Ishimura you'll find some neat military hardware to put to good use should you wish to, like the rapid-fire and extremely deadly pulse rifle.

5.0 out of 5 stars In Space, no one hears you scream 6 Nov 2008
Platform for Display:Xbox 360
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
You play an engineer called Isaac whose team is sent out to repair a massive Mining Ship floating adrift in space. Isaac and team soon find out that the ship's crew has turned into flesh hungry monsters and it's up to Isaac to fix ship and save his surviving team mates.

From this point, think Aliens and Event Horizon. As you walk down corridors lights blow out, doors slam and floors creak. The atmosphere is set well before you encounter any monsters and when you do they pose a real threat.

The headshot mentality does not work here; targeting you foes limbs is the only way to go. Blowing off a leg will put them down on the ground and a few shots to the arms will stop them crawling towards you. Unfortunately this is time consuming and when facing multiple enemies attacking from various angles you need Stasis. Stasis enables you to slow time down in a small local area enabling Isaac to stall enemies long enough to either run or take out its mates.

Running is often a sensible option as Stasis as health packs and ammunition are all in short supply and this really adds to the tension. While difficult; Dead Space is rarely frustrating and the player has a fair number of opportunities to save their progress.

As with most games of this nature; Isaac has a selection of weapons; options and upgrades which may be purchased in stores or collected from corpses. Isaac also has the ability to use Kinesis to move or throw items. Upgrading is achieved by collecting and spending credits or finding power nodes. Suits, Stasis, Kinesis and Weapons can all be upgraded significantly but there is only enough resource for the player to upgrade selectively.

5.0 out of 5 stars This game has a character 3 Nov 2008
By Mihael
Platform for Display:Xbox 360
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
This is an amazing game. It has borrowed some of the mechanics from Bioshock, but it is nowhere near a "Bioshock in space". Where bioshock has offered you a wierd and twisted sense of dementia, this game offers a cold hard fictional reality of deep space. It is gritty, dirty and bloody in right amounts. It gives you that feeling of palpable reality that you can almost taste. If you are a fan of Event Horizon, Alien etc, you will love this game.

The camera is over the shoulder 3rd person, which adds to the atmosphere of something lurking just behind your back and you not being able to clearly see it. One of the greatest additions, which I want to see in all games from now on is the complete integration of GUI into the gameworld. There is no button that takes you out of the game, everything you do, wether browsing your inventory or checking your map is done within the world. All readings like health, air etc are integrated into your suit so you have nothing that detaches you from the world. It is amazing how an apparently simple thing as that can add to the game atmosphere.

And the atmosphere is scary, confined and claustrophobic. Parts where you go to 0G are downright disorienting in a right way, being that you are able to walk on ceilings and walls, you can easily lose the feeling of what is up and what is down.

Most of all, the game is not a run on the mill copy of something else, it just reeks it's own unique character at every step.

Only thing that goes against it is that it is released so close to the major franshise titles like Gears 2, fallout 3 that people have been waiting for years, and so it might get under the radar for alot of people and not get all the attention it really deserves.

Awesome game!
