Dead Space 2 Impressions

Picture
Well after a long, long wait I finally got my hands on Dead Space 2 via the demo on the xbox live marketplace.  I chose to play it on my Xbox 360 rather than my Playstation 3 mainly because i prefer the 360 controller and like to be signed onto Xbox Live while I play.

Anyway, I've been waiting for the Dead Space 2 demo for a long time now and I'm happy to say that it did not disappoint.  It's amazing that one game can do scary, horrifying gameplay one minute and do a complete 180 and give us inteense, action packed gaming the next minute.  It's a real testament to the developers and I can't wait for the full game.

Dead Space 2 Demo drops in late December

Picture
The Dead Space 2 demo was released in late December, and is now available both on Xbox Live and the Playstation Network. 

The demo puts you back in control of Isaac Clarke, and picks up right where the eeriness and horror of Dead Space 1 left off.  The sheer terror involved in the game is similar to what it was in Dead Space 1, but the sequel (at least in this demo) actually brought a lot more action with it, and some great actions scenes at that.

"On Rails" type action sequences existed in Dead Space 1, but they have been improved in every way in Dead Space 2.  The demo has you battling a giant alien creature that breaks the containment of the ship with outer space and has you frantically trying to keep your footing in the land of gravity.  If you get sucked out into space, it's all over.

If you weren't excited for Dead Space 2 before, you certainly will be after playing the demo, which leaves you craving more.  The full game will drop on January 21st and let those players who whet their appetites with the demo finally get the whole story.
