    Anyone playing it?

    The guy at EBGames said it was Resident Evil in space with good controls. Pretty much sums it up.

    I'm enjoying it so far.

    I heard that it's a great game, but I'm too broke to get it right now.

    Same as Joker. I haven't even heard of it, to be honest. What platforms is it on?

    Re: Dead Space

    Dead Space is really starting to interest me. Still, I have to see how Fallout 3 and COD5 fair, before I make a decision.

    Someone donate money to me.

    It interests me. I would love to buy it, but don't have the money for it at the moment. Though I am thinking of going out and renting it tonight.

    Re: Dead Space

    Did you mean Endwar, the new Tom Clancy game? If so, then yes, it does look awesome. If not, than I have no clue what you're talking about.

    I'm getting DC vs MK for PS3 as long as it has good online gameplay.

    IMO, fighting games don't have much depth and lose interest rather quickly.

    Re: Dead Space

    That's true, you think it's going to be priced at max (60)?

    No reason not to. It's a next-gen game, most are priced there now.

    Re: Dead Space

    If you get it, be prepared to have to tweak the life out of sliders. It's ridiculous how awful default ones are.

    Re: Dead Space

    Re: platform question, I'm playing it for the 360 but it is available for the PS3 as well.

    I'm about half the way through the game now, I think, and I'm really enjoying it. I got sick of BioShock but for whatever reason I can keep playing and I keep wanting to play Dead Space. The difficulty (on normal) is nicely tilted so that it doesn't force you into hard battles before you're ready. The pace of the game is spot-on as well.

    There's nothing terribly original about the game, it just seems to cherry pick elements from other games and use them in a good way. I've detected elements of a lot of different games in it: Resident Evil, Doom III, Mass Effect, Halo 3, Half-Life 2, F.E.A.R., and others.

    Re: Dead Space

    BioShock is an awesome game. Are they doing a number 2? And also in Entertainment magazine (my girlfriend's mother subscribes to it), they mentioned rumor or a BioShock movie....awesome.

    Re: Dead Space

    Haven't heard of the Bioshock movie. I will say though, Bioshock is easily one of the top 3 games released on this generation of consoles. As for a sequel...

    Bioshock 2: Sea of Dreams

    The teaser trailer is pretty lame, but yes, they are making a Bioshock 2 that's apparently due in Q4 of 2009. Woot! :ghoti:
