Why would anyone do this? The horror is crafted and music is a big contributor to that.

If you're implying horribly unrestrained, nuance-less dramatic orchestra hits everytime an enemy jumps around a corner adds to the experience, we're doing to have to disagree.

 

[Maxrunner]

What the best price for the ps3 version with extraction in UK? anyone already bought it from ther?

 

[Despera]

Chapter 10 is so... nostalgic.

 

[SlasherJPC]

Completed in on casual in about 6 hours. What a ride. Though I'll have to say, I think the first half is better then the second half with

Spoiler

the set peices sorta of dissapearing, and the enemie volume being cranked up a shit ton. Also the final boss has nothing on Dead Space 1's final boss

Overall loved it though. Great job Visceral!!!!

 

[The End]

So, because no one has update gameFAQs yet:

Dead Space 1 save unlocks the original plasma cutter

Dead Space: Ignition save unlocks the hacker suit

Dead Space (iPhone) save unlocks a free power node and ????

Does an Extraction save unlock anything? I fully intend to play through it eventually, but is it worthwhile to boot it up before diving into DS2?

 

[shwimpy]

Getting my ass handed to me on Zealot and loving every second of it. =D However, I liked it better when Issac kept his yapper shut.

 

[FlyinJ]

Wait... do all versions of the PS3 SKU come with Extraction on disc, or just the collector's edition?

 

[MarshMellow96]

I've just realised that codecow is on the Xbox Spotlight page. Famous or what

By the way - is the DS1 plasma cutter unlock purely cosmetic, or is it characteristically different to the DS2 version?

 

[Game2Death]

Wait... do all versions of the PS3 SKU come with Extraction on disc, or just the collector's edition?

All of them. For now.

 

[FlyinJ]

And I'm assuming both SKUs look the same and have similar frame rate?

My replica plasma cutter does not light up at all. I don't know if it needs batteries or what, but I pull the trigger and it doesn't light up.

It takes 2 AAA batteries. Door is in the handle.

Thank you very much. I thought it was broken. I was looking for a place for batteries, but I didn't want to break it, heh.

 

[Facism]

supremely annoying, play.com has been 'packaging' my copy for a day and a half :/ If they don't ship it tomorrow i won't get it till next week.

Spoiler

why'd i order it online

 

[Despera]

Hardest segment was between the end of chapter 7 and the early bits of 9. After that, it's back to smooth sailing!

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

If any of you '360 gamers don't want your Dragon Age 2 armor unlock code, I'd love to have it.

 

[Square Triangle]

For those who have beaten it, any tips on weapons choice? I'm really tempted to just run through this with the ol' plasma cutter as I did in the first one. Playing on Zealot too btw.

 

[JoeBoy101]

Just started on the PC and holy shit at on so many levels.

Got to Chapter 2 so far, and the whole Apartment setting with everyone running around is goddamn brilliant. Very nicely done. Graphics are leaps and bounds better than the first, especially the texture work, and the controls are much more responsive. M+Kb plays just fine now as opposed to sluggish in the first DS.

Hope the game keeps playing this good. Though i do have one complaint. One it comes to saving people so far, Isaac is always coming up... just a tad late. Reminds me of this:

The Bishop!!

 

[Spookie]

For those who have beaten it, any tips on weapons choice?

Spoilering it because people might not want to know the weapons.

Spoiler

Upgraded ripper saves so much on ammo, line gun for the kids, spear gun for the explosive rounds and intense damage and last weapon take your pick.

Regarding one of the last chapters before the end:

Spoiler

Did anyone else... err 'miss' with the eye poke machine and truly freak out? I have a HUGE phobia of needles and almost couldn't finish after the second time I fucked up.

 

[JohngPR]

Wow, the Dragon Age armor for PS3 is for the PS3 version of DA2 only? That really sucks.

 

[spiderman123]

Just beat it and gotta say this has to be one of the best horror games I've played in a while

 

[Rated-Rsuperstar]

I was just at Walmart and saw a 50 year old women buy this. I guess not all moms hate Dead Space afterall.

Haven't beaten it yet (10th chapter), but I highly recommend the Detonator. Extremely satisfying when used against

Spoiler

Stalkers

.

And of course, Plasma Cutter is mandatory.

btw, I've noticed something strange.

Spoiler

More Marker pieces are appearing in the main menu every time I launch the game, and more text in that strange language as well.

Hahaha, good one!

 

[ChoklitReign]

Is the force gun back? That was my fav weapon.

 

[K' Dash]

Any of the DLC suits are worth the moneyz, or should I save my allards for the SP DLC?

 

[Despera]

Is the force gun back? That was my fav weapon.

Yup, it's back.

 

[Sinatar]

Is the in game AA option not working for anyone else (PC obviously). Radeon 5870 for reference.

 

[spiderman123]

Spoiler

Just wish they had more boss fights though

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Fucking cripes, "Decrypting" on Steam takes forever. What the hell is with that? I've been dying to play and after a 12 hour day I just want to kick it!

 

[Curufinwe]

Have there been any impressions yet on how Extraction controls with the Dual Shock 3 compared to the Move?

 

[DigiMish]

Wasn't preordering the game on Amazon supposed to get you an Ignition key?

 

[Stallion Free]

PC:

This looks so much better than on the PS3. Damn, I should have gotten the pc version!

 

[JohngPR]

Yes, I pretty much got it via email the instant I pre-ordered it last night.

 

[JudgeN]

This looks so much better than on the PS3. Damn, I should have gotten the pc version!

While it does the PS3 version is fantastic, glad to give visceral games my money for their hard work.

 

[Songbird]

So with no Severed or Extraction on PC, it looks very likely I'll be getting this on PS3. So should I get it on the triple, triple-buffering be damned, or make a stand? Not like it would make a difference.

 

[Max]

take my breath away

nothing compared to later stuff though o.o

 

[Songbird]

The security suit looks awesome.

 

[kuYuri]

is there any difference between new Plasma Cutter and old refurbished Plasma Cutter?

 

[kuYuri]

Has this been mentioned? There are some DLC you can get through Dr. Pepper codes. Alas, this only applies to PC and 360 version of the game, not PS3.

One comes with a warranty.

Spoiler

I'm sorry

 

[shwimpy]

Just the look. If you upgrade either one using the bench, it applies to both.

 

[Draft]

PC version looks great, but ya'll didn't get mad free stuff like I did!

BTW, the little toy plasma cutter sucks! It doesn't work! And yes, I did put batteries in.

 

[dreamer3kx]

Ammo is plentiful on normal, is it like this on survivalist or survivalist just a bit harder?(enemy hits, health and such)

 

[Songbird]

I wonder if the codes can be entered more than once, like with ME2's special headgear.

 

[-Mikey-]

Is the PS3 version solid performance wise?

 

[ruxtpin]

I got a PS3 code for Ignition and an unused Dr Pepper cap, just looking for a Rivet Gun code for the PS3. Anyone to trade PM me. Thanks

 

[Swag]

Well time to man up, lights off, surround sound on.

See how long I last.

 

[I AM JOHN!]

My plasma cutter doesn't light up.
