A very disturbing yet satisfying experiment.
This game is a candidate to being one of the classics of the genre.
The atmosphere created makes you feel vulnerable and weak.
With the absence of other big name games of the genre Dead Space really comes out of nowhere and gives a good slap on the face saying "This is the way you do it" The gameplay is fluid, no pauses in inventory screens or maps. A good selection of weapons/tools. An upgrade system that makes you wanna spend all your credits. But the peak reached with this game is the sound effects. You can see yourself turning around and looking back saying "damn! where is this thing and where will he jump on me?" A cold shiver running down the spine every corner you turn. And if a game can make you feel lie this, it deserves to be a classic. As a lover of the genre I have loved the experience of playing this game. And I wouldn't be out of line by saying, the throne of the genre may change after this. A must buy for the lovers of the genre.
