Awesome Scare
User Rating: 8.5 | Dead Space (2008) PC
Every now and then I decide to spend a few bucks for a scary game and some of them do not dissapoint. This game did not disappoint at all. The scare is geniune and somewhat linear. You can compare this game to Doom 3 but this is different. The interior design of the complex is somewhat metallic which is right for a space game inside a space ship. Enemy varieties where not that much considering how long the game took me to complete. I just wish there was another way these creatures came at me instead of jumping out of vents in the wall and sometimes just outright appearing right infront of me. The narrative in the game is done with text logs and audio logs which has been done before but the storyline is quite good. The whole idea of shooting the limbs to make a kill is not so good. What should have been done is this: you shoot the body, it takes a long time to die but you shoot the limbs, it takes a short time to die but I have to admit that the main purpose of the game was to scare and it did it well
The atmosphere is surprisingly good and those guys did not forget to put a torchlight. Technically the game looks very good and consumes less RAM. The sound system is one of the best out there. I have a 5.1 surround and it scares me a lot when im playing at night. Great game
