Dead Space (PS3) Overview
In the future, Earth's appetite for resources has become a major motivator for deep space exploration. Immense, privately-owned and operated mining ships called "planetcrackers" orbit planets and use sophisticated equipment to carve out entire city-sized chunks of rock, and reduce them to component elements and raw ore. Set in the cold blackness of deep space, the atmosphere is soaked with a feeling of tension, dread and sheer terror. The company's top engineer, Isaac Clarke, is sent to discover the problem and fix it. Once onboard the vessel, Clarke discovers that a terrifying alien presence has taken over the ship, and has horribly killed the crew. Weaponless and terrified, this lone engineer is burdened with much more than simple survival - he holds the fate of all mankind in his hands. In Dead Space, players step into the role of engineer Isaac Clarke – an ordinary man on a seemingly routine mission to fix the communications systems aboard a deep space mining ship. It is not long before Isaac awakes to a living nightmare when he learns that the ship’s crew has been ravaged by a vicious alien infestation. He must fight through the dead silence and darkness of deep space to stay alive.
Dead Space (PS3) Features:
- Dismemberment “This game's core mechanic is the strategic dismemberment of alien appendages. In true survival horror fashion, you must conserve ammo
- in true Hollywood horror fashion, it's all about seeing bone fragments and arterial spray fly across the room
- Note: Enemies in the game are resilient. The conventional wisdom that a headshot will stop an alien is thrown out in Dead Space
- Setting and atmosphere “Dead Space is an immersive, interactive horror movie experience. An emergent, panic-inducing audio system, an innovative Minority Report-style HUD, and a nuanced, scary pace that will sink you into the game experience
- Unique weaponry “Stasis gun is used to slow charging aliens and to help solve puzzles. The gravity gun and unique projectile-based weaponry are mining tools"
- your ability to upgrade weapons increases as you progress through the game
- Zero gravity “Survive and destroy the aliens in zero G environments. Manipulate gravity with Havok physics to solve puzzles and fight enemies."
"Dead Space is the latest Sci-Fi horror-themed survival-horror game set in space."
