Description
In the future, Earth's appetite for resources has become a major motivator for deep space exploration. Immense, privately-owned and operated mining ships called "planetcrackers" orbit planets and use sophisticated equipment to carve out entire city-sized chunks of rock, and reduce them to component elements and raw ore.
Communications with one of these planetcrackers, the USG Nishimura, have ceased while the ship is engaged in deep space mining operations.
The company's top engineer, Isaac Clarke, is sent to discover the problem and fix it. Once onboard the vessel, Clarke discovers that a terrifying alien presence has taken over the ship, and has horribly killed the crew. Weaponless and terrified, this lone engineer is burdened with much more than simple survival-- he holds the fate of all mankind in his hands.
Features:
- Dismemberment - This game's core mechanic is the strategic dismemberment of alien appendages. In true survival horror fashion, you must conserve ammo in true Hollywood horror fashion, it's all about seeing bone fragments and arterial spray fly across the room.
- Note: Enemies in the game are resilient. The conventional wisdom that a headshot will stop an alien is thrown out in Dead Space
- Setting and atmosphere - Dead Space is an immersive, interactive horror movie experience. An emergent, panic-inducing audio system, an innovative Minority Report-style HUD, and a nuanced, scary pace that will sink you into the game experience
- Unique weaponry - Stasis gun is used to slow charging aliens and to help solve puzzles. The gravity gun and unique projectile-based weaponry are mining tools
- your ability to upgrade weapons increases as you progress through the game
- Zero gravity - Survive and destroy the aliens in zero G environments. Manipulate gravity with Havok physics to solve puzzles and fight enemies.

"Tense"
VERY good survival horror game.
For the first few levels you'll find you can only just kill an enemy, barely
scraping by on ammo and health, but after a few hours of gaming you'll get
access to some major equipment upgrades, leveling you from a scared little bot
to a rambo style killer, although in saying that you aren't invincible,
especially when stronger enemies like the Brute come in, a giant Slicer that
just won't die.
The game is quite scary to start with, but it gradually moves on to being very tense rather than frightening, although it still has some major scares.
Definately a must buy, one of the best games available on the PS3 & Xbox360.

"Perfect"
This game Is amazing, I was a bit weary at first, but this game is a welcome addition to the very small thriller genre. The story is well played out, and the first play through will give you jumps. The graphics are top notch, the gore is so life like, and I like how they sort of based the game from the movie event horizon. I would recommend to anyone who has a PS3.

"Spooky, Awesome, Love it!"
Recommended by my friend to play so I brought I Dead Space, I must say it is one of the best games I have played in a long time! The story line and the cut scenes are good, weapons are great and the Aliens are amazing. Very spooky in parts, enough to scare the pants off of you. Sound is awesome so play it loud with good surround speakers. If you are wanting a good horror/sci-fi/alien game get Dead Space now!

"Nappy-changingly good."
Yup, this game will have you fudging your huggies in no time. This game has crisp visuals that assault your senses as soon as the game begins.
A good survival horror game is made by sound and DS does well here. As you play, you can here monsters clanging around in vents and steel crashing as the ship you are on falls apart.
The controls are very easy to use, and a function that lights up the correct path ahead of you is great in the maze of corridors you have to travel through.
At the beginning of the game, ammo is scarce which will provide a challenge for more hardcore gamers. You will find yourself cycling through your empty weapons before you resort to pummeling the juice out of the alien in front of you.
