Finally!

Hotline Miami is killer (especially that soundtrack!), but Bulletstorm and Deus Ex: Human Revolution still aren't holding my attention... Dead Space, however, totally is!

I haven't cared much for survival horror since Resident Evil 2... Design decisions like infinitely-respawning enemies in games with limited resources just kinda pissed me off. I tried every ensuing Resident Evil game, Silent Hill, Parasite Eve, etc... But they just didn't do it for me; going back to Silent Hill 2 came close, and Amnesia: The Dark Descent was a delightful surprise, but neither had me excited about the genre again, so I skipped Dead Space entirely.

I did pick-up the first two Dead Space games on Steam during a sale a while back, but it wasn't until a friend insisted I try it, even if only for the story, that I bothered to install them. I'm about half-way through the first title, and though the voice acting sucks and the game's stating to feel a little repetitive, the ship is interesting, the gunplay and HUD are radical, and the story is solid; I'm seeing this one through to the end :)

Seriously!?

I have to play through The Cave six times to see everything!? Maybe later...
