  • Abstract:  Isaac Clarke, the unluckiest space engineer of the 26th century, is more unfortunate than ever in Dead Space 2. 2008's superb Dead Space took the style of survival horror shooter action exemplified by games like Resident Evil 4 and meshed it with an at...

  • Abstract:  Let's get one thing straight first - the Dead Space series is genuinely frightening. There's a subtle difference between experiences that make you jump out of your seat every now and again, and those that distil fear into your very being, causing anxie...

  • Abstract:  There's an argument to be made that Dead Space 2 is more than just dismembering nightmare creatures in a never-ending splortchy march of exploding heads, impaled flesh, and insanity, with some light engineering work.Dead Space 2 is one long...

  • Abstract:  If one thing can be said of Visceral Games, it's that the studio is true to its name. Visceral is a word that can adequately describe any of the team's violent, blood-drenched titles, and nowhere is this more true than with the game that turned EA Re...

  • Dead Space 2 is more than just an action game and it's more than a survival horror game -- it's a game that tells a really personal story about a guy who has been seriously scarred by the events around him. That premise alone makes it interesting, but ...

  • Small yet meaningful tweaks like the Advanced Locator make the game much more fun to play, the evolution of Issac Clarke as a character is nicely handled, the action still fits into the trademark Dead Space mould
  • There's a noticeable lack of major moments, the boss fights are fairly weak, there isn't enough in the way of meaningful plot developments or answers to major questions
  • No, it isn't as scary as the first, and if you're disappointed by that, you need to let it go because Dead Space 2 isn't about running from the Necromorph menace -- it's about confronting it and hopefully sending it back into the dark corner of space it e...

  • Better gameplay, more action, Isaac talks, great visuals and sound.
  • Not much story progression, not enough boss fights, some generic levels.

  • Dead Space 2 takes the fear factor of its predecessor and more than doubles it. The game plays perfectly for a survival horror shooter, even able to teach segment heavyweights such as Resident Evil a thing or two. With no lack of sheer terror, some aw...

  • Violent and highly satisfying gameplay, Insanely immersive, Never resorts to cheap scares, Multiplayer is an added bonus
  • If you didn't like the first game, this one will not change your mind.
  • Visually, Dead Space 2 is stunning. It's still a very dark game but you can make out Visceral upped the visuals significantly. Blood and gore are still a very integral part of this franchise and this game features more blood and guts than pretty much a...

  • Abstract:  Los truculentos sucesos del USG Ishimura, donde perdió a su prometida, han marcado profundamente a Isaac Clarke. Sin embargo su plácida estancia en una celda con su confortable camisa de fuerza se ve interrumpida por el ataque de los temibles necromorfos....
