Engineer Isaac Clarke is back for another blood-curdling adventure in the sequel to the critically acclaimed Dead Space. As if battling dementia, being hunted by the government and seeing haunting visions of his dead girlfriend weren't enough, Isaac has to face the alien infestation known as the Necromorph again, this time in the space station where he is recovering. Some guys have all the luck. With a new arsenal of tools and new determination, Isaac will have to remember to dismember.

I already have the Collector's Edition pre-ordered, and have been looking forward to it for some time. The demo was pretty good and fun, even if it seemed repetitive in the beginning and was nothing really new.

As far as I'm concerned, the voice acting is a little iffy and in life-or-death situations stomping dead corpses for ammo/money might get in the way (in the original game when you killed an enemy, it dropped an item; now it's more RPG like and stomping/shooting/kinesis is almost always required). The detail and color has seemed to improve and the city looks awesome.

And as far as the controls, there's some changes but they'll probably be easy for you to get used to. Luckily they've added some small, clever features including how stasis can be 'refueled' quickly if you have stasis packs in your inventory (like med-pack functions in the original). I'm pretty sure that stasis also does this automatically on it's own over a longer period of time. I didn't notice that in the demo though - but then again I'm so used to having to save it from in the first game because of possible Brute attacks that I guess I really didn't use it that much.

New enemies like 'the pack,' 'the puker' and 'the stabber' is it? keep variety alive and have some rather interesting traits. Again, I'm looking forward to the real thing.




Are you planning on buying it? Renting it? Playing or played the demo? Neither?
Think it looks good or bad?

Roughly a week left. Couple hundred minutes.

Discuss.

I saw some monster stick his arm down isaac's mouth and explode his head.

Why do they favor the head so much?

Got it today! Now just wait exactly one more month until my Birthday for a computer...

The loving Plasma Cutter in the Special Edition isn't life size, which is pretty handicapped. I was all excited when I saw PLASMA CUTTER REPLICA WITH LIGJT UP ACTION AND STUFF. I looked at unboxing and saw it was tiny. I was like, WHAT THE FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU-
