Dead Space 2 is a fantastic game. Grab it before the end of April while it's free on XBL

This game is the RE4 of the series. Perfect combination of horror and action

Talking Issac > Silent Isaac
Titan Station > Ishimura
Fixes all the clunky mechanics from 1
Really spooky sections and sick setpiece moments

Agreed. The first was very well done horror and the 2nd did a great job of improving on the series. The third just flat ruined any traction that the first two built.

I grabbed dead space 1 off of origin for free a few weeks ago. I actually look forward to playing it.

i enjoyed the first one, but lots of stuff was clunky, especially the zero grav sections. i also hate silent protagonists in games like that. constantly reminds you that youre playing a game and blows immersion when it's just character after character telling you to do this and that. It was terrifying in the first hour or so but never hit that level of fear again

I enjoyed the setting of 3 and had a decent time until the 3rd act. Really jumped the shark with the full-on action change though.


2 just nailed the balance for me.

I wish I didn't hate horror games/movies. fricking stressful.

Hell, the first time I tried to play Bioshock, I put it down after a couple of hours. Next time, played it with headphones instead of speakers and caught all of the audial cues which reduced jump scares significantly and made it playable for me.

Something like Dead Space would kill me

That's not exactly the best kept spoiler in all the world, but he just said he hasn't played it yet. Why post that?



I didn't see Shafts original post, so I thought there replies were to the "shoot the necromorphs on the dick" post and I was really confused. I wondered what I missed about this new tactic when I played.

Do I need the original on my system to get this? How does it work if I don’ t have the 360 game?

Downloaded this last night. I really liked the first one when I played it some years ago. I never played the second one. Looks legit. Next on the list after I finish MGSV.
