Should I buy it. I read the quick review somewhere and it sounds good. My computed will play it amazingly. And plus I just got a new Speaker System... But should I buy it? Does it play well on PC? P.S Reason why I'm asking is because all I have now is Empire Total War. Thanks :)

I would also recommend it. It's an amazing experience. If it wasn't for Fallout 3, Dead Space would have been my GOTY 2008.

Currently playing it on 360, and its awesome so far. I am on Chapter 5 atm, and I am pretty thrilled that I still have so much to experience.

many people seem to hate the close in over the shoulder view, if you don't you will like it.

It's a bit clumsy, not that scary, lots of backtracking, but besides that, a really great game!

The first few levels are really easy but by chapter 7ish you start getting swarmed by seemingly endless waves of monsters. It can be frustrating and unforgiving, but it's one of the few games that mosters are actually scary because they can murder you.

Wow you're a trooper if you played the game like that. I just wanted to say one more thing about this game that annoys me. The whole feel of the mouse feels off. Aiming, moving around, even navigating through the menu feels like the mouse is lagging just a bit and it throws my game off bad. I'm used to counterstrike reflexes so maybe that's just me? I don't know. Anyone else have this problem?

I had it at the start....but then I got used to it. The closeness of the camera to the character is on purpose to immerse you even more. I always play Horror games with headphones (or speakers loud), by myself and light out.... why play a horror game and not get scared...

Dead Space is a great game but you need to be brave. If your one of those survival horror wimps then you'll

crap yourself with fright. Dead Space is still an amazing game putting aside the bits that make you wee your

pants with fright. You're gonna get one hell of a fright though. Still, get it cause its a great gory bloody violant

horror game that has trophies. Fantastic, get it and there some good offers on www.Amazon.com. Try it out now.

Yeah, I would recommend it too.

Oh, and every, stop exaggerating. Right now. I mean it. It's not that scary, really, I played loudly with headphones with lights off. It's scary for the first chapter and um...that's it...

It was one of the best games of '08. The sound was the most impressive aspect (you need a surround sound system to fully appreciate). I thought it was relatively scary, or least tense, throughout. The whole survival horror, with constant limited health and ammo, is what made the fright factor. A big nag about the game is that several of the cutscenes are unskippable, which means several die-reload-rewatch cutscene-replay moments in the game. For the life of me I don't get why developers do that.

Yeah the mouse movement was messed up for me, but I turned off Vsync and now it plays great.

it's a pretty good game. if all you have is empire total war, i recommend you get the orange box on steam before dead space. you'll have tf2 for online play, and a lot of single player as well. then get dead space.

Fantastic game, provided you take the time to tweak the controls to you liking. Most people start the game up, move their mouse for a few seconds and then ragequit. it's nigh-on unplayable before you fiddle with the sensitivity and disable vsync, but after those simple changes it is without a doubt one of the best games I have ever played.

Awsome game. Especially if you are fan of sci-fi. The over-the-shoulder camera view and character/mouse movements do take getting used to but once you do you will enjoy the game.

BTW, I was thinking this would have been a great Battlestar Galactica FPS game if you change the aliens to cyclons and then make changes to the ship Ishimura to seem more like Galatica...

Great game..although i feel they could have made it a tad more epic...one of those games where the sky is the limit.Hopefully there is a dead space 2.
