Survival at its best
User Rating: 9 | Dead Space 2 PS3
My story of the Dead Space series was quite weird. I found out about Dead Space in 2010, which was was late for a game that came out in 2008. I played it and loved it. As soon as I was done with it, I had hoped for a sequel and yes, this one improves on its predecessor in so many ways. Dead Space 2 is also a great experience, and the game play is more fluid. DS 2 in my opinion is a modest game at heart. It is that way because I felt that not everything is thrown at you with so many confusing issues to deal with. It was relatively easy to get around, gripping experiences and excellent survival sequences. I recommend playing it on hard difficulty, and as I recall, it was a great experience. I always felt the need to reload my previous saves because I was low on ammo or health, but such is the nature of DS 2, I found supplies here and there that kept me going. Such game play stays true to the genre, giving it that extra feeling of being in a constant struggle. Its good to see a game that adds an emotion or thriller feeling to it, in addition to the great game play. My only negative point about it was that it was relatively short, and I was not completely satisfied at the end. While I hope to see yet again a third part in this series, I also hope that there will be more depth, and see more creativity like we saw in Dead Space 2.
