Dead Space Electronic Arts (EA Redwood Shores)2008Un survival horror soberbio, donde tus recursos son limitadísimo y temerás hasta el titileo de la luz de la nave.

8 de 10***Only the Dead Survive.

A massive deep-space mining ship goes dark after unearthing a strange artifact on a distant planet. Engineer Isaac Clarke embarks on the repair mission, only to uncover a nightmarish blood bath — the ship's crew horribly slaughtered and infected by alien scourge. Now Isaac is cut off, trapped, and engaged in a desperate fight for survival.

* Strategically dismember the Necromorph enemies limb by bloody limb.
* Zero gravity combat means terror can strike from anywhere.
* Uncover the horrific truth of this shocking thriller.***Finishing the game on [i]hard[/i] difficulty unlocks [i]impossible[/i] difficulty (as well as giving 50k credits, 10 power nodes and military suit). What that entails, however, is unknown.***2009-01-09 on Steam (lang: eng, fre, ita, spa, ger)***[b]Launch trailer[/b]
[media=youtube]S7VvKGlVZu8[/media]***There has been several animated comics and apparently they're making a direct-to-DVD/Bluray animated film as well to cover the back story (and so far it seems like they're selling the movie separately). I truly hope these are included in the final game, I hate to miss out on the plot simply because the people want to make more money out of it.***[b]achillesheelfoes[/b] / [b]dismemberment[/b] — this is the only way you can defeat the necromorphs, by shooting or otherwise ripping off all their limbs. Just shooting at their head or torso won't help much (much like with zombies).
[b]technomagic[/b] — (tele)kinesis and stasis devices, the latter of which literally creates a temporal distortion that significantly slows down the passge of time for the targeted object or creature (ergo, slowing their movements down to crawl).

Dead Space 2 Electronic Arts (Visceral Games)2011Engineer Isaac Clarke returns in Dead Space 2 for another blood-curdling adventure in the sequel to the critically acclaimed Dead Space.

After waking from a coma on a massive space city known as "The Sprawl", the lone survivor of a horrific alien infestation finds himself confronting a catastrophic new nightmare. Battling dementia, hunted by the government, and haunted by visions of his dead girlfriend, Isaac will do whatever it takes to save himself and dominate the gruesome onslaught.

With an arsenal of tools to dismember Necromorphs and new determination, an engineer will bring the terror to space.

New tools to gruesomely slice and dismember the Necromorphs complement Isaac's signature Plasma Cutter, empowering him as he meets new characters, explores epic Zero-G environments, and fights against a relentless necromorph onslaught.

Survival isn't the only thing on Isaac's mind in Dead Space 2 - this time, he calls the shots.***Continues the tale of Isaac Clarke.

Dead Space: Extraction  Electronic Arts (Visceral Games;Eurocom)2011This is a first-person shooter in which players lead a group of survivors across a space colony filled with infected humanoids. Players shoot their way through hordes of alien and humanoid creatures while looking for the source of the infection. Players use an assortment of futuristic weapons (a 'Ripper,' a 'Plasma Cutter,' 'Pulse Rifles,' and flamethrowers) against the creatures; most damage results in dismemberment, decapitation, and large spurts of blood. Dismembered humans and monsters are littered across the environment with floors and walls often splattered with blood. Enemies scream and grunt throughout the game from weapon impact or during attacks. Strong profanity (e.g., 'f*ck' and 'sh*t') can be heard in the dialogue. PS3labelminimizesubject
