 Best game of 08 January 7, 2009
Its all been said before but Dead Space is just an amazing experience that seemed to come out of nowhere. I'm not a fan of EA by any means but they really hit this one out of the park. A rare combination of great action and even better atmosphere, delivering genuine chills from start to finish.
A+
Hell of a ride! January 7, 2009

The alien hordes are incredibly resilient. You'll have to find creative ways to neutralize the attacking enemies by shearing off limbs with powerful weapons. And when the ammo runs out you'll be thankful that you can use your telekinetic powers to pick up objects (even the aliens' own severed arms and legs) and hurl them at your advancing enemies. A new mode called Zero-G also makes an appearance. You can use zero gravity to create your own path around obstacles by walking on walls and the ceiling. Leap across vast distances or change your perspective to gain a strategic advantage over your enemies.
Developed as a single-player game, Dead Space delivers the chilling, claustrophobic feeling of being isolated in a dark environment all the while being stalked by some truly horrific enemies. A game that makes it's own rules bringing the true meaning of being weaponless, alone and terrified.
 Great survival horror game January 6, 2009
I was amazed by the work EA has done with Dead Space, which stands in stark contrast to much of their other games. This is a great survival horror game and if you like the genre you'll love it. It had a cinematic flair that reminded me of Scifi Horror movies like Alien and the menus were very immersive. That said, it isn't the longest game but still very enjoyable.
Best experience of 2008 January 6, 2009
I think I've been waiting for Dead Space for a few years...
Yes, I've played every other awesome game this year. I'm a diehard Gears of War fan and I loved GOW2, but I have to truly say that Dead Space captured my imagination, heart and soul.
The level design is awesome, gameplay is captivating and the design choices awarded by the loss of gravity or the absence of oxygen (read, vacuum) make the game soo fun.
If you haven't tried it, please do, you will NOT be disappointed.
The Next Generation of Horror Games January 4, 2009
When I first got this game (actually my brother did), it was the title that hooked me into the story. You play the role of a ship maintenance worker that stumbles across the stranded "Ishamura", and you and your team must find out what has happened to, or rather killed the crew. After following through the lengthy story (the length a real video game should be...) and taking out several "bosses", this turns out to be a great game hands down, and if you are a die hard horror game fan somewhat like myself or you greatly enjoyed Gears of War, Resident Evil, and the others, you will love this story that keeps you on edge every minute with great graphics that realistically imitate the inside of a space cruiser. I highly recommend this game.
