Extremely clumsy controls + saving checkpoints = a mixture that ruins any gaming fun. At last for me.

This game doesn´t work for me. It has all the attributes I sincerely can´t stand.
The mouse reacts with delay (no idea if intended as "feature" or simply due to programming), the keyboard isn´t sufficient adjustable, the field of vision is limited, the subtitles option is missing completely. Well - and the worst issue: saving checkpoints. Honestly, I try my best to avoid any games with this feeble-minded sado-masochistic "feature", with Dead Space I simply didn´t my job right in informing myself. Mea culpa. I´ve found out after it was too late.

Maybe this game is a great shooter with great atmosphere and you wet your pants from horror when playing and similar blablabla. But not for me. The graphic and atmosphere that i encountered in the first stages of the game were simply unappealing to me. The same as when someone glorifies WoW and you find out that it´s just a terrible ugly hype for little kids.

Giving Dead Space 1/10. Unplayable, frustrating waste of money. Even the nerving and simplistic controls of Mass Effect fights are miles better, not speaking about the story or atmosphere.

Anyone wants a copy for free? Or I´m throwing it out into a thrash can...
