Dead Space

This would have been a much more compelling horror game if not for the bizarrely sluggish mouse movement, which feels strangely slow and floaty. You get used to it eventually, but it makes pinpoint-accuracy abnormally and unnecessarily difficult in a game that demands it more than the average shooter.

Extraterrestrial body-part party
Oct 20, 2008
Dead Space is the first game that can truly be called post-BioShock. You’re an inexplicably mute character on a dark, claustrophobic spaceship dripping with spooky atmosphere, taking instructions from people who may or may not be playing you. But where BioShock was a psychological thriller, Dead Space is an action-horror game that prioritizes blood over brains. ...

Two new blood-basted areas have our full attention
May 17, 2008
The first Dead Space walkthrough we attended wowed us with grotesque monsters right out of The Thing and an oppressive atmosphere that screamed Alien, so the skeleton of a great game seemed intact. However, we couldn't go all-out crazy for the game until we sat down and blasted some otherworldly creatures for ourselves; now that we have, our pre-emptive excitement is one step closer to validation. We're happy to report, based on ...   » Read Full Dead Space preview

So, are you ready for a hands-on report based entirely on increasingly wavering comparisons? You are? Then let’s go!Dead Space is a bit like Event Horizon, placing you on a ship, the USG Ishimura, that’s ...   » Read Full Dead Space preview
