photos will be finding their way on to this blog as soon as i find the cable for my camera, its in my stuff somewhere, but again i am distracted by a video game.
i had picked up dead space for the PS3 a while ago (one of my co-workers sold it to me when e got rid of his PS3) but i never got around to playing it, i was to enamored with fallout 3 to care about anything else.
i found the game packed in one of my boxes and i figured i would give it a spin, I heard so many good things about it, now the game does draw some similar comparisons between Event Horizon and perhaps Sunshine, but its hard not to compare this to them since the survival horror genre doesn't really stretch out in to space all that often. Also, i love both those movies, so one would assume that i would enjoy a video game with similar themes?
Yes
despite some initial issues with camera angles this game had me from the get go, the atmosphere is very spooky, the ambient noise is incredible, and the story is extremely compelling. the only issue i have so far is that the main character seems very wooden and stoic, perhaps a bit too much for my taste.
I am closing in on the end of the game (just started the last chapter) and by then i will have probably a bit more to say about it.
