That’s not to say that these features aren’t there at all, it’s just that they are logically placed in game and are in no way hindering the frights you’re sure to experience.Īnother of the features that is sure to deliver the thrills is the game’s sound. This is an excellent feature in making the game scary because you aren’t constantly watching a life bar or ammo display, but instead focusing on the blood stained environments, and stressing over whether or not there is a deformed being lurking in the shadows waiting to attack.

From the outset however, things are not exactly as they seem.Īfter an unsuccessful attempt at landing, Isaac enters the Ishimura, and to his disbelief is unable to find any members of the crew.

NOW THAT’S MOTIVATION: DECAPITATED ENEMIES STILL CHARGE!īlood, guts, and gore – Dead Space has it all! Dead Space exhibits the finest aspects of both the horror genre and third person shooters.
