Dead Space is only a week away!

Well ****, the PC release date isn't until October 20. WTF EA?

That's only a week longer, what seems to be the issue? At least its not months.

Yeah I agree with KICK, a "normal" time difference really between platforms.

Try being a Silent Hill fan just now finding out SH5 which is out in America (has been for about 1 week) is being delayed to Feb 2009 for Europe :/

Looks very slick indeed :)

Doesn't that interface look remakably familiar? DEUS EX anyone?

Off topic ... Any word on why the delay? Is it because of our german cousins and censorship?

No reason for delay yet :(

If I wasn't strapped for cash I'd import it on the PS3 as it's region free, cause I'd really like to play before Feb09 :/ (KZ2 comes out then)

I'll be honest, I hadn't even heard about this game until I read the IGN review yesterday. It sounds amazing from what I can tell, and I'm about to watch the GameTrailers preview that was linked in the OP.

I'm looking forward to it for sure (Y)

Haha, I was the same way. Glad to see there's going to be a PC version too. :D

[Hungarian Salami]

Its a must have for me. However I'm afraid that its gonna be short. No more than 8 hours of play time.

[Massiveterra]

it's about 10-12 hours of gameplay.

plus the reviews said that you'll need to go through the game more than once to get every item and to get the full story

one down side is that once you choose a difficulty level, you can't change it at any time during the game, including when you replay it after you finish it

[Razorwing]

hmmm I don't know.. it doesn't look that interesting to me.. I will have to pass. And I don't find the style of it appealing.. doens't look cool enough compared to games like Gears or even Bioshock. That's just me though. lol.

A small review from Ars

Looks good :D

A small review from Ars

The good

• Beautiful graphics, strong engine
  
• Weapons are original, balanced well
  
• Survival horror play makes every decision important
  
• Strong story, voice acting, writing
  
• Brand new IP, everything feels fresh
  
• Deep backstory, which you can explore in multiple ways
  
• Scary!
  

The bad

• 12 hour playtime and single-player only may make this a rental for some
  
• Explaining the stains in your pants
  

The ugly

• The masses of gamers who will miss out on an incredible experience because of a DRM-inspired EA boycott
  

Verdict: Buy

From article linked above.

[Hungarian Salami]

This is what I'm sayin' - 12 hours of gameplay is not much. I might try to finish it quickly and then sell it on ebay.

[Massiveterra]

thank god for gamefly. hopefully I can finish this game within 2 weeks

also, this video sold me on the dead space franchise

I think I'll be picking up the cartoon DVD when it comes out.

[Massiveterra]

Dave J just told me that he s*** his pants 20 minutes into this game.

[Dirk]

I just played for two hours and I must say I think it is really good. I have another ten chapters to go but so far I am loving it.

This game is just almost too much for me

that happens in just about every large room I enter.

I'm always checking my corners.

Changing the difficulty in the middle of gameplay is a... bad thing?

[:: Lyon ::]

I just wish they've enhanced the smoothness + graphic quality on the PC. I guess it's third person too on the PC? (looking at how you need to see your health and the video feed straight on your character)

I hate seeing those console games ported straight to the PC (you can even sometimes see the "Vibration on/off" setting on the options O_o)

well, if I finish the game and thought it was too easy and would like a challenge, I would like the option to try a higher difficulty level

Well that part makes sense, but I never understood the concept of changing the difficulty in the middle of a campaign.

[Knightwolf20024]

From what ive heard it only applys if you want to move your character across with all the items and ect you found. other wise you can change it if you dont want to do a move.

[TheFlusher]

This game....is immerse when playing in the dark. Nooooooooooooooooooo!

[Snakehn]

12 hours gameplay bad?

I remember when i used to finish Resident Evil 2 in 2 hours and 15 mins LOL i enjoyed it so much.

[bobbytomorow]

Just want to say this game is freakin awesome. My game of the year so far.

EA has redeemed themselves for awhile and proved they can still make a kick butt game with tons of gore and a great atmosphere.

Its like RE4 but in space.
