Man I had to finish a Game!! LOL!! the last game I finished was BIA:HH which is just as good as Dead Space IMO.

Really though Dead Space is such a unique Game it's hard to compare it to much, other than DOOM3, though

the two games are still totally different as well. DEAD SPACE is refreshing, and makes you work at it, and Hard!!

This one you gotta stay on top of, at least I did, My guess is the Console version is a lot easier, with auto aiming etc.

Though the IQ on the PC is stellar!! Besides I'd really be embarrassed if HJ hit the goal line first again, LOL!! :lol:

Just Playing!! My hats off to him, he plays one game at a time and doing so really gets immersed in each game.

Whereas I'm all over the place. Not that bad, Now I have DS under my Belt, and I'm about done with FO3. It's FC2 time!!

w00t w00t, it's just waiting on my HDD(s) for me, patiently, I have a ton of extra Content installed in that game.

Prolly get lost in a Heartbeat!! :o

Every door in Dead Space I was afraid to Open!! :shock:

HJ-

I guess cuz I usually get killed in oh about 5 minutes or less, LOL, after I set foot

in a new Area. Unless of course there's a VERY welcome Site!! Like a DAMN SAVE Station!! :lol:

I'll say this though, DS has a good story, I thought, loved the end!! Kinda like a Movie.

DEAD SPACE is 3rd Peson Gaming DONE right!! :!: IMHO. :mrgreen:

well since i am testing a new gfx driver, 180.00 i got done with XP. so now i am in Vista so i can try all the games once again. right now i just got into chapter 10 Blue. and yeah cp5 or 6 was the hardest 1. 8 and 9 were over before they started lol. well im also playing FC2 and FO3 as well. and yeah all at the same time, well almost lol. but since i use the same layout for my key binds i do not get lost from 1 game to another, sept for the special key binds. but right now DS is getting very interesting so im off to kill some more!! also rig level 5 does look great. to bad no more new weapons though, i was looking forward to some new ones.

Yep Scavy~

DEAD SPACE ROX! Nice Shots to, HJ as well!!

Here's a Review from a gamer @GameSpot, I found pretty Good, though I had a

Hard time not correcting the sentence structure, LOL, and grammar etc. :lol:

http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/

May Contain some spoilers....

THOUGH IF YOUR WONDERING ABOUT THE GAME THIS REVIEW COVERS IT.
========================================


10/10
Perfect If not the Best but definitely the Most Addicting Game Of 2008
Posted Dec 17, 2008 12:10 pm PT

Difficulty: Just Right
Time Spent: 10 to 20 Hours (This part, OH please!!)

The Bottom Line: "Highly addictive"

Dead Space for me is the Game Of The Year. And mind you i have played the others for the PC like
Fallout 3 etc. which follows up very close.

So what is Dead Space about? Some people says its like Resident Evil. Some say its like Bioshock.

What do i say? Its a mix of those games and also hell of a lot like Half Life 2 which is a great thing.

Dead Space has a weird camera angle like Gears Of War. I really love this camera angle as it really
makes the game more intense.

Story - Dead Space revolves around a Protagonist named Issac. He and his friends crash through in
another planet whilst their journey. After that cutscene you just wear that mast kind of thing and
come out. Overall a very Good Story.

Definitely GREAT Story if you haven't played other sci-fi games like Mass Effect. The Ending is Epic
and Story is in such a Continuous flow. You never get confused. The twists and turns are amazing.
You can never predict who will turn on you. You will think for a second that this guy is the Main Boss
but you will end up seeing him CONSUMED by some other Alien.

Missions are Great and never the SAME. They are all different in their own way.

Gameplay - Amazing. Simply Too Good. So intense and really Scary.

You have an excellent save point system. The checkpoints in this game are also good. The enemies
have very FEW variety at the beginning but then there is a lot of variety later.

The best thing about this game is that even if enemies keep repeating, you really don't actually come
to know or care about it. You are all along working hard to save up ammo and more importantly Save
Yourself. Remember this is a Survival Action Adventure just like Resident Evil 4.

The Weapons in this game are amazing and definitely gives Gears Of War a challenge. Even if there
are only 6 weapons in all. Make it Double. Yeah 12. Each weapon has a Secondary. And its not Secondary
like in CS Short Burst mode Automatic mode!!

On the other hand, the guns almost change and really give a feel as if you have a new gun. The Flame
Thrower in this game Sucks and that's the only bad weapon. The weapons i used were Plasma Rifle(My favorite),
Saw Rifle(Superb Weapon), Plasma Gun(Default) and Line Gun.

The Bosses are few but even if they are few they are EPIC. The last boss especially is IMPRESSIVE.

Oh yeah i forgot. You have an Inventory of your own to manage weapons, med kits and Ammo etc. There are
Store in each level or chapter where you can sell and buy new Items.

There is a new thing called a Power Node which is like a Power Up. You have to use it in Work Benches where
you can upgrade your RIG. You can upgrade your armor in the Store and also buy new weapons or Power Nodes.

There are also certain places where you go Off Gravity and you have to make jumps to different places.

Overall a Great and Intense gameplay.

Remember this is not a Blind Gory Third Person Shooter. Its a Strategic one. You have to target the enemy's
legs or hands and immobilize them. Else they will come and eat up your legs, hands or legs. This game is DAMN
Gory and really FUN to watch. Best Realistic Gore i have seen so far. Gore is definitely better than Fallout 3.

Graphics & Sound:

Dead Space definitely is One of the BEST Ports for PC and not crappy like GTA IV which demands 3000$ Rig
for playing it. Dead Space has no Complex Anti-aliasing settings or Anisotropic Filtering that will make you
go mad choosing the settings. Just on or Off Settings and in a couple of minutes you are off.

Graphics are a BIT just a BIT dumbed down for the PC which is a very good thing. Good Job EA. Graphics
is Awesome and trust me even though it is not the Best Graphics of 2008 it does come close.

Even if i tried hard, i never found a Single Glitch. The music, ambience, sound are all Excellent. Really sucks
you into the game. Especially the Enemies making big rumbling noise and coming from nowhere is if not scary
but a "Sudden Incidence" which literally makes your hair on your Hand Stand at night.

Overall:

What can i say about this game. I was all ready creating my blog for top games of 2008 and was almost about to name Fallout 3 the winner.

This is definitely EA's Best Next Gen Game. Way better than that Crappy Mirror's Edge.

So if you have played Mass Effect, Resident Evil 4, Half Life 2, Bioshock you better Check out Dead Space.

If you haven't played Mass Effect or other sci-fi games Dead Space is a Must Buy.

My GOTY of 2008. Like i said in the title. If not the Best Game of 2008 there is no Denying the fact that
this is The Most Addicting Game Made In Recent Years Of Gaming. A Complete Package is what truly defines Dead Space.

Perfect Game 10/10.

========================================

This is pretty much how I feel about Dead Space, though refrences to Resident Evil Games I know nothing of? ;)

Fallout 3 is on my List for Game of the Year, Dead Space and FarCry 2. Those three are the Cream of the Crop,

Though I think Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway should be in the List as well, excellent game!! BIOSHOCK!! almost

forgot, BioShock, was in 2008 as well, So add that one to the List of Must have PC Games!!

Blue, Bioshock was August of 2007. :Clueless: Time tumbling again?

Well I may get this game this weekend thanks to an early Christmas gift from a very good friend :wave:

I know exactly what Blue means about opening doors, I flashed back to DooM3 where you always wanted to have full ammo, health and do a quick save before you went thru that door! :butcher:

But I should prolly finish at least one of the games I'm playing right now. Somehow I just seem to keep drifting back to ET:QW and get stuck there for hours on end. :comando: Chris.

2) AX78, Phenom 9500, 2Gb OCZ PC6400, EVGA 9800GTX+, CDRW, XP Pro SP2

Great screenies Scav! I agree about the chapters, I'm on Chapter 10 myself but slowed down a little as I don't want the game to end. :D I watched a movie on Fear.net last night as well rather than using it for gaming time.

Oh also you mentioned you're using the new driver version 180.00 a few times? Is that driver set newer than those Beta 181.00's I posted in the Nvidia forum? Just asking because sometimes older numbered Beta's are sometimes newer and you can't always go by the version number.


Here are a couple of more screens. Got me a brand new suit finally. Guess I'm spending too much on things I don't need as usual ....

This one is of my new best friend .... 8-)
