The PS3 one is garbage, has half the defense of the real lvl 5 suit and being all black makes your character near indistinguishable in the frame since so much of the game is drenched in shadow.

The 360 one is the same defense-wise. The people doing a DLC suit run right from the start get the immediate benefit of all the inventory and extra defense, but later in the game it becomes worse than the normal suit. Being dark obviously isn't a problem for it though.

I can't believe you can't remove the Obsidian suit. That is such a crock of shit. I have enough credits for the level 5 suit and I can't buy it. Bull.

If you didn't save then reset, or better yet if you haven't gone through a door since you equipped it just kill yourself to get reset your actions in that room.greenjerk said:

Couple of Achievement questions for you guys (reply to this post, but please PM me if you can help):
I have no idea what the "There's always Peng!" achievement is. The hint says "Find the Peng treasure" -- anybody know what the hell that is?
Also, there is a "secret" achievement (bastards...) -- any hints on these two?
I just finished the game a second time. 9:57 for the first round and around 7 hrs the second time. I got the "Maxed out achievement right before the final boss and I was aiming for that one since "go". Save your cash and sell all your air, stasis, unneeded ammo, etc if you want that one -- it took me 2 complete look-in-every-corner playthroughs to earn enough scratch for it.
The only ones I missed were Beating the game on the hardest setting, beating the game with only the Cutter, and the 2 listed above.
Can't say it enough: THIS GAME FUCKING ROCKS.

Just finished Chapter 4. Really impressed with what seems to be the average length of a chapter. I move slowly so each one is taking me over an hour to complete. On the downside, though, the game did have it's first "this is stupid and not fun" moment. Most people probably know what I'm talking about. Those types of parts are few and far between, right?

~Kinggi~ said:Oh fuck that's not fair, im stuck with the freaking Elite suit wth
The Elite and Obsidian DLC suits are not even close to being bad. I think everyone is really overreacting about the defense rating. The key is you can store a full 25 items from the start of the game -- and since you'll find health packs everywhere, you shouldn't die more than 10-20 times unless you really suck.
Just use the Elite/ Obsidian suits and save yourself a ton of credits.
All right, I got the engines working and everything is great, hooray! Let's fix this orbit thing and we're good to .... what? Seriously, what did you say? Asteroid defense... Asteroid-- Ok, now you're just pulling random sci-fi word combinations out of your ass. Did you really need another hour of gameplay that badly?

Ahh I didn't see this mentioned anywhere that's why I asked. I kinda figured it was a perk for beating the game...

That's the only one.WHOAguitarninja said:
Also about movement and pacing, I think one of the most remarkable thing about this game is that it's the only game (that I can think of) that has walking as the default speed and running as a button press where I spent the vast majority of the game NOT running. The ship and it's environments have just the right amount of straight line distance, corners and environmental obstacles to sync up with the character's walk animation to make me keep my weapon drawn in order to "slice the pie" and have better situational awareness, which along with the sound and visual design helps keep the tension level very high.

So I beat my first
in Chapter 4, took the elevator down to the Atrium, and good God that
sent a very unpleasant chill down my neck. At least, I think it was in that elevator. Regardless, it was enough for me to save and call it a night. Great game.

I don't understand the feeling that the game sucks because it quickly turns into an action game. The thing is, no one EVER did that well in a game because you will NEVER stay scared of the same setting or situation for more than an hour or two. The same thing happened with all Resident Evil games, The Suffering, Slent Hill series, every other horror game that lasted an extended length of time. Frankly, I loved when it turned into just a really gruesome action experience.

You can find Peng at
chapter 11 where your original ship/shuttle is parked, just look around
Not sure which secret achievement you're missing, the ones you can miss are:
play catch with a brute or leviathan - catch the ball they shoot out
avoid the grab of the lurkers 10 times - took me a while, just let them grab you and keep pressing X
finish the shooting mini-games with 50%+ health - the asteroid one is the hardest

Well, you can't change difficulty with new game+ so you'll have to start a new game on impossible anyway.
Loving the game, some people even just enjoy watching with the surround cranked and lights out.
Hard was HARD, but I thought I was doing all right :[ 4-6 shots to kill a guy and I didn't know what crates and whatnot were so all my ammo was scavenged off the deceased.
So I turned it back down to normal... wayyyy too easy. Haven't died once, I have so much ammo that I'm not even picking any up anymore :]
I've skipped using the DLC suits. I was planning on using one, but decided against it. DLC suit + Hard might be a good pairing.
I'm about 1/2 way through level 2 I believe. Sticking with the first pistol thing because it seems to work well enough. Bought a level 2 suit already. Keep spending power cores on upgrading the suit good idea or bad idea? I also don't really plan on getting a different weapon any time soon. Good idea?
anyways, great game and I'm glad I bought it.

So is Impossible difficulty unlocked by beating the game on any difficulty, or only Hard? And has anyone tried Impossible yet?

that's not true at all. I traded my obsidian for the Level 6. And just for kicks switched back.fistfulofmetal said:
I beat it on normal and then started on Hard. I'm finding it much easier maybe because I'm now familar with the controllers and have my cutter upgraded all the way, I'm going for the "Beat with the game with only the cutter" trophy. Already took down the Final boss with just the cutter so I assume the rest should be pretty simple.

Wait, what, I'm stuck with the Obsidian suit? There's no way to unequip it? That's just stupid.

I've noticed lately while playing Dead space that I haven't had any rumble. I tested some other titles like force unleashed and hells highway with the same results. Is anyone else having this problem? I have rumble turned on in the xmb menu but I'm not getting anything. However I do have rumble for psn games.
