Who here has gotten to play Dead Space? I’m still waiting for it to get to me in the mail with GameFly. I’m not always into survival games (on the count of me acting like a wuss), but I’m really curious to see this one, because of the cool sci fi setting. I loved this new video about the main character.
Anyone played it yet?
Also waiting for it to come. Overlord is on the way now. I am very excited to play this! Can’t wait for it to get here!
I’ve been hearing a lot of good things about Dead Space, I might pick it up as a rental this weekend. I’m a total wuss, though; Dead Rising freaked me out for a while until got used to it.(It’s a freaky cut-scene for the first transition into night!)
I really like the designs for the necromorphs. Kind of reminiscent of the Flood in the way that you can tell that they were once humans. It’s pretty messed up.
I’m a huge fan of suspense games and movies, mostly because they have a bigger effect on me than other people (I think the word “wuss” has been used already) but I’ve never been a huge fan of the gore that designers seem to think is necessary to make a game/movie scary. I don’t like slasher films or movies like Saw or games like Manhunt. In fact, that’s why my friend recommended for me to not buy this game. That said, after seeing this video, I HAVE TO GET THIS. That is all.
Sorry, disregard that last post courtesy of my crazy wife. I’m a few chapters in, and I’m totally hooked. The atmosphere, the pacing, the graphics, the combat mechanics…all excellent in my opinion. Just breaking the surface of the story, but it’s certainly intriguing so far. The whole camera floating somewhere off your right shoulder thing took a little getting used to, but the unusual point of view actually contributes to the suspense. Highly recommended.
Yeah, my brother is playing it and says it’s maybe one of the scariest games he’s ever played. He loves it.
Man, is it just me, or does anyone else like the first level the best? Everything’s fine, nothing scary yet…Yeah, I’m not good with scary. I’m transitioning, though, with games like Half-Life 2 first to get used to it, and I’m trying to get used to it. So this may not be my thing, but I definitely want to play it eventually. Looks….interesting. My friends tell me it’s awesome, I’d like to try it out.
