Dead Space



Alright, here's my review for Dead Space. Completed it on medium in around 3-4 days' time.

An amazing third-person survival horror-action game.

The graphics' spectacular and the gameplay's just awesome.

Game's set in the USG Ishimura, a mining ship.

The cutscene starts with the Kellion (which you are in) responding to Ishimura's distress call and due to malfunctions, crash lands on Ishimura.

The Ishimura is already dead and infested by Necromorphs (humans infected by aliens).

So you play as Isaac Clarke, a ship engineer and then you basically have to get out of the Ishimura.

And later in the game, you get seperated from your team when you try to activate some shit. And then the game continues with you being all alone with a mining tool.

So one of your teammates, Kendra, will keep asking you to run errands for her, to get out of Ishimura.

The gameplay is really really scary and its only in 3rd-person view and aliens just freaking pop out from air vents (which is like everywhere). And then sometimes theres a sudden blackout. And the background music, and sounds like footsteps, metal pipes dropping, aliens' sounds. Shadows of aliens running past and a lot of horror factors.

The fun part when killing the aliens is that you deal very little damage to them if you shoot their bodies, and so, the most effective way is to dismember their limbs. Severing just the head will not kill them. And that can be very scary cause they'll be rushing at you and you'll panic while trying to aim for their limbs. And when theres more than one alien, the situation's worse.

The variety of aliens' quite good. Hate that regenerating one (oops, spoiler), make my heart beat so fucking fast.

Then, there are stores where you can buy your weapons, ammo, suit, health pack etc etc. And theres the BENCH, which is a machine you can use to upgrade your weapons, RIG, kinesis, stasis using power nodes.

I shall not elaborate on the story to prevent spoilers. If youre interested in the story, you can watch the movie animation 'Dead Space: Downfall'. It shows what actually happened to the Ishimura (before Isaac arrived).

Dead Space's one of the best games i've played. I'll rate it 5/5 stars. A must play!

Now for screenshots.


Isaac Clarke


Level 5 engineering suit.






See what i mean?


A cool feature of the game where you need to spam 'E' to break free.


Sucker punch to the face after breaking free.


The military suit that you'll unlock after you complete the game. But i prefer the engineering suit. Somehow it looks more hardcore :D
