The way you glide through space with your thrusters, or the way Isaac's helmet wraps around his head convinces me that Dead Space 2 was inspired by said hero (which isn't a bad thing...I mean, Iron Man's awesome). Anyway, I finished the game a couple days ago, and I'm thinking about publishing a review after my second round. I mean, I played 85% of the game using the plasma cutter, and once in a while using the pulse rifle (which I have to add...having a grenade launcher as an alt fire beats the weird ass "shoot upwards" in the first one :?). And only now did I realize how much the javelin launcher kicks ass :shock:. I mean, if I don't actually kill something in one shot, the shocking alternate fire does the trick pretty well (and this is with no upgrades either :o. I'm collecting nodes on the way to beef up this bad boy, and see how awesome the special is...and since my saves carry over, and I've been stashing any spare ammo that's not plasma rounds, I've got a few hundred javelin rounds to abuse :twisted: ). I mean, this does wonders for those that necromorph that poops out those annoying small green...things if you don't kill it right.
Anyway, great game. You unlock riot armor after you beat it, and it's pretty cool in the sense that I can tank my way through the game and not worry about dying anytime soon (you won't believe the amount of health packs I've got in my inventory...I mean, I literally have to stash it to save space for ammo :lol: ). Still, I think the Advanced armor looks the best (and more Iron Man-like :P), and offers the best perks out of all I've got so far (50% better stasis recovery...beats having perks that grant bonuses to the contact beam or pulse rifle..you know, guns I don't even use :|. Or the other one that gives me 10% off the marketplace...and seriously, I'm never hurting for cash in this game...although I'll have to admit the vintage suit does resemble the prototype Iron Man costume from the first movie). I'm a little disappointed that the military armor never made it (the stormtrooper armor from the first game after you beat it). And like I said, great game...you know it's great if I'm playing it a second time (I usually never do this in most games :P). So, until Dead Space 3 comes out (I mean, this is EA we're talking about. If they strike gold with an IP, you know this spells "never ending franchise" :lol: ).
