The game gives you a real feeling of tension, isolation and suspense while playing it. It’s my favorite survival horror game since Silent Hill 2 and Doom 3(which also gave you a real feeling of suspense, isolation and tension. Dead Space 1 and BioShock 1 borrowed a lot from Doom 3.)
Dead Space 2 could still be scary at times, but the constant chattering between the main character and others, as well as the more cinematic approach, really killed a lot of aspects that made Dead Space 1 so damn great. Dead Space 3 takes it to the next level…characters don’t STFU and the game is so damn dumbed down, cinematic and streamlined that all horror aspects from Dead Space 1 barely even exist anymore. It really sucks. They literally turned it into just another Third-Person Shooter with monsters.
EXACTLY. Like, the constant stress of some horrifying creature popping out and skullfucking you only let me play for 30 minutes at a time, lol. Some fucked up shit happens in that game.
Dead Rising is one of the few GREAT games Capcom put out this gen. I really should play Off the Record more, I beat DR2 but I stopped at the very end of OTR because I got distracted by other games.
@Sonicabid Not serious :tup:. The One is going to really have to knock my fucking socks off to derail my plan to get a PS4. I have like 46 360 games, too.
DR2 and DR2:CZ are free on xbl gold this month. I got the email this afternoon and downloaded them. Probably won’t play either unti I can play the first one because I’m anal like that.
When I first played the game, I was playing on a 21 inch TV/VCR with a brightness problem. Ever played Demon’s Souls? Well the brightness problem was that is malfunctioned and darkened everything(so black that you couldn’t see the menu thus couldn’t be fixed). So if you have played Demon’s Souls, your Boliteria was in the day time, mine was at night. So imagine this with Dead Space, I could barely see which made the game even more nerve wracking. Nothing was well lit like it was supposed to be. Screen shots showed everything. So that with the actually true feeling of feeling alone in the game, really got under my skin. The worst was an enemy that was outside a room I was in. I heard it clawing at the window. I pointed at laughed at it. I continued searching the room. I turned to my left and there it was staring at me. Literally inches away. No, I didn’t hear it get in. Needless to say, it probably knocked a few years off my life.
But yeah, from what I’ve heard everything is pretty much the same, but I feel you, I don’t like playing things out of order(except for those cases where the only good games in a series were the sequels)
