Dead Space 2 is on its way to an xbox 360 near you!


Good news "horror/zombie/infection of some kind in space" fans! Dante’s Inferno

developer Visceral Games has (unsurprisingly) announced that a sequel to their 2008 sci-fi gore-fest Dead Space. The game visually looks up to par but what the final appearance will be is as certain as lag in a left 4 dead 2 server. You may wind up with alot or just a little of what you want.

Dead Space 2
is currently in the works for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. This is more of the same formula basically extending the story of where the first game leaves off. Except maybe not entirely a linear path. As was not the case with the plot in the first game flashing between events may be entirely important in this version.
The official announcement referenced “taking the fight to the Necromorphs,” suggesting Isaac spending time in places that wil be very dark and freakish with major doses of blood and guts flying all around. It doesn't state that this means that Isaac will visit a Necromorph home planet. However it does state the obvious. The game will have to take place in more than a large space craft or space station.
Now i will say that i am in no way as big a fan of this series as others out there. I liked the game and the gameplay was very playable and offered at the same time absolutely no replay value for me at all.
This is an area that the new version must take care to approach fixing. If there is no solution in sight, they aren't trying very hard to find one.
