I Just Bought Deadspace!

We haven't had a Dead Space Thread in at least 24 hours, so I thought I'd create one of my own.

So do you envy me that I haven't played it yet? Thoughts opinions? Did anybody else here arrive late to this party? And by the way, I had been waiting for the price on this one to drop, and today I saw that a seller on Amazon was selling a brand new copy for... get this... $15. So I jumped. And hit my head on the ceiling. No, I'm kidding.

Fifteen bucks! That is what I am talking about, my friends.

My understanding is that the graphics are better than Crysis?

Also, I was only joking about the Crysis part.

Not to sound offensive, but this does belong in a blog...

Right.

So, the Dead Space instructions...

1) Store in a cold place!

2)Turn off lights.

3) Wear headphones.

4) Fasten seat-belts.

5) Wear protective diapers.

Noted.

You might get freaked out abit at first...but then once you get used to the gore and scare tactics, they all become a nuisance as you uncover the story.

I liked the game.Pretty damn scary when you play at night...

Dead space is the good game...

My congrats, buddy, Dead Space is a decent game, I'm playing chapter 10 now:D

is it dark? i hate dark horror games where you cant really enjoy the game and the enemies.Doom 3 sucked for meGazaAli

It's just right. You'll enjoy the enemies.

There are no obvious scare tactics, I guess once people see two monsters jumping out of a closet they'll say all the game is like this. The spaceship has a fully functional ventilation system, and the monsters travel through it. If you run from a room, they might jump in the vents and follow you. You can sometimes notice them hiding behind vent grates, and the dust and noises alert you that they're about to pop out. Sometimes, after you shoot them, they pretend to be dead - only to jump at you after you've passed by their body. And sometimes entire minutes pass without a fight.

It's not a game with cheap scares, like Doom 3. It's better than that one and Resident Evil.

If you want the complete experience, look up the

i actually hated dead space. for one, it wasn't scary at all. I played it alone in the dark and it's just not scary. I though bioshock was scarier. second, the gameplay just sucks. I'm sorry but it's one of the most boring games i've played recently. I don't envy you not playing it.

There's a difference between horror and horror themed.

Dead Space is psychological science-fiction, closer to Solaris than The Thing or Resident Evil.

The half life games were the least boring FPS I've ever played. The only FPS' that I'd play almost continuously and love every minute, not like most which tend to drag on about half way through.

And HL1 and 2 were both pretty long games for a FPS, and the hardest thing to accomplish when developing in this genre is keep the players interest as the game goes on because they are generally too repetitive or too intense to play in long sittings, at least for me.
