Synopsis (Wikipedia)

The game takes place in the year 2508, when the USG Ishimura ("" a Japanese surname which translates literally to "Stone Village"), a "Planet Cracker" starship, sends out a distress signal to the Concordance Extraction Corporation (CEC) during a mining operation on the planet Aegis VII. The CEC dispatches another ship to investigate, the USG Kellion. As the Kellion attempts to dock with the Ishimura, a guidance system malfunction occurs and the Kellion crashes into the Ishimura's dock. The crew then begins to seek another means of transport. As they explore what appears to be an abandoned ship, they are attacked by grotesque monsters who kill off all but Clarke (who becomes separated), Hammond, and Kendra. Hammond recognizes that many of the ship's systems are failing, thus he and Kendra direct and assist Clarke in fixing them, so as to keep them all alive for rescue.

Story Mode

In this game you play as Isaac, you guys and a couple other people are in space going somewhere then suddenly you guys are crashing into something. Then you check out this Ship or something (Looks like a ship, but imagine it in space and looking a lot more different). When I played this game I didn't really buy it, my friend let me borrow it if I let him borrow Halo 3 so I had played the demo of it before and it seemed to scary, things just pop out of nowhere. Once I passed the first few levels on easy I would look everywhere just incase one of those Necromorphs (These things you have to kill) would pop out behind me or something. I got passed the first few levels and learned a lot of things, there were some parts that just got me irritated and to hard to past, I believe I was playing on easy mode, if they have one, unless it was Medium. So as you go on you start facing these huge bosses that are pretty difficult to pass, I eventually end up beating them and at the end, I complete the Story mode. Now I didn't want to beat it once so I complete it on Easy Mode or whatever it's on there and now I go to the Next hardness which is Medium and you get $10,000 to spend which is really cool, so after the second time through I almost get every achievement except for one, Complete the Game on Hard Mode. I never completed the Game on hard mode but never got to it. I got close but from there just stopped playing, I got to the 7th level I didn't die much just stopped playing. Overall, I liked the Story Line (: It was fun and I never got Dead Space 2 just might have to consider getting it..

Gameplay

The Gameplay in Dead Space is really interesting, I don't play Third Person Shooters and I don't like them. I'm just not use to it, since you don't see the gun upfront and it's just annoying but for Dead Space it's about the only third person game I enjoy playing. You could do a lot of things in Dead Space like Upgrade you guns, Buy things from the store, use this stasis thing where you could slow enemies down, fly around in Zero Gravity areas, there's just a lot to do. The guns are quite interesting once you upgrade them fully though, they are a lot more faster, stronger and better to have. You could also flip them from side to straight. My favorite gun in the game was the 'Plasma Cutter' or 'The Line Gun' since once you upgrade them fully they are extremely helpful since you could easily buy Plasma cutter ammo and it's fast to shoot and reload and effective on enemies and with the Line Gun ammo is fairly easy to get and it shoot really cool and could help you when your in danger with a lot of enemies and dismember them easily.

Controls

The Controls are fairly easy to use and not that difficult to play with. It's almost like any other game to play with how RT is how to shoot and they don't have that much of a different. So if your thinking it would be harder, it's not. The only thing that I believe got me confused while playing this was the running, since you have to hold LB and I didn't know you have to hold it and just press it while got me irritated for about the first few levels until I got it through.

Graphics

The Graphics aren't that bad in this game. They seem pretty normal, not to bad or to good. The game shows a lot of blood throughout playing through the levels and looks pretty nice (:
Everything is pretty accurate though, when you hit someone you actually hit them and you could tell when they are dead because it would look as if they would be dead and when you actually dismember them their whole bodies could be all apart and it is really cool since if you walk by them they actually move if there on the floor or something. So graphics - are good in that area.

Rating : 8.9/10

I'd give this game an 8.9/10 because it's fun only thing is there really isn't much to do in it and besides the Story, there isn't anything to do unless you want to watch the Title Screen the whole time. Which sounds like fun right? Yeah didn't think so =P
Anyways, that's pretty much it!
