6About Dead Space™ 2
In Dead Space™ 2, you join Isaac Clarke, the Systems Engineer from Dead Space, as he wakes up three years after the horrific events on the USG Ishimura. The Ishimura was a Planetcracker-class starship besieged by grotesque reanimations of its dead crew, known as “Necromorphs.” After unearthing a strange artifact known as the Marker, Isaac finds himself on the Sprawl, a giant space station in orbit around Saturn. Unable to remember how he got here and plagued with demented visions of his dead girlfriend Nicole, he must survive another nightmarish outbreak of Necromorphs as he fights his way towards an answer he hopes will end all the chaos. Key Features:. Tear through space with full 360 degree movement. . Wield a set of devastating tools to bring the terror to space. Impale Necromorphs into the walls with the Javelin, use improved telekinesis to turn limbs into deadly weapons, plant powerful dismembering trip mines, or create a hull-breach to suck a group of monsters out into space. . Fire up Isaac’s suit boosters to rocket around in zero gravity like never before. Explore the depths of the Sprawl and encounter new weightless combat and physics-based puzzles with full 360⁰

Easy recommendation
9.5/10 genre : 3rd person action with horror elements The game takes place 3 years after the events of the first game and you play as Isaac Clarke fighting from the very first moment of the game for your life in a space station known as the Sprawl, haunted by things no man should ever have seen and by the fact that your girlfriend died on Ishimura. + Great presentation and graphical detail, great use of light that amplfies the atmosphere, Isaac looks great. Game runs with no problems maxed out. + Voice acting is fine, sound effects are also great, you will often wonder if that sound is a monster creeping up on you or just a piece of metal rolling around. + Gameplay wise the combat is more satisfying than in the original and melee is also done better. There are some new weapon additions , but the plasma cutter and pulse rifle are still your best bet just as they were in the first game. + Nice idea with the space suit, that implements interesting gameplay elements. + Some clever puzzles, although not that challenging. + Hard Core mode is unlocked after you finish the game at least once and in addition to tougher enemies and fewer supplies, you can save your progress only 3 times. - Game is faster paced than the original, maybe faster than what a horror game should be. - After a while enemies become predictable, both the way they appear and the way they fight. - Multiplayer is nothing special. A classic action/horror game , a beautiful single player experience, even though it's a linear and after a while a predictable one, a game i recommend to everyone who is looking for a solid single player and intense experience.

I'd like to review this game without any "RIP Visceral Games" and "Go to hell EA" remarks
I'd like to review this game without any "RIP Visceral Games" and "Go to hell EA" remarks. Even though I am sincerely sad about EA being a headache in gaming community and shutting down Visceral Games, I'd like to say: Don't be sad that it's over, be happy that it happened. Dead Space 2, one of the not-so-many masterpieces in gaming industry. Dead Space 1 was an all-out awesome experience, the blend of horror and action was crafted perfectly and it worked. This one is an upgrade of the first one: The expanded, already rich and mysterious, storyline does wonders. They also gave a voice to the protagonist which fits the atmosphere. Sound design gives chills down the spine, also leaving you uncertain of what will happen next - which is crucial to creating an amazing horror experience. Action is more fluid than the last one, flow is excellent and pacing is brilliant. That's it for the Dead Space and I'm grateful we had been given such an intriguing experience. This is how single-player games are done. Single-player games aren't dead, publishers are just being braindead. I see myself returning to this universe from time to time to remind me that video games can be truly artistic, as they can be unforgetable experiences. Thank you Visceral!
