Dead Space (Xbox 360)

Product Information

Dead Space 2 reveals that Isaac has become mentally disturbed and unstable after he destroyed the Red Marker on Aegis VII, and that he was captured by EarthGov and taken to the Sprawl, a massive space-station built into the remains of Titan, Saturn's largest moon. Once there, EarthGov scientists extract information from his mind to build another Marker, and he is later confined to a hospital on the Sprawl due to a dementia-like mental illness caused by the first Marker. A Necromorph outbreak in the Sprawl instigated by the Marker copy soon occurs, thrusting Isaac into a struggle to survive the Necromorph epidemic. Haunted by hallucinations of the deceased Nicole Brennan, Isaac manages to destroy the Marker copy and undo its influence on his mind. Isaac succeeds in escaping with another survivor, Ellie Langford, before the explosive destruction of the station, and goes into hiding from EarthGov authorities as his mind still retains information about the Markers. The basic scenario was written by Ellis, Remender worked on the bulk of the script, while later dialogue and additions were made by Johnston. [37] The Ripper's source of damage is a circular sawblade. Once launched with primary fire button, the sawblade hovers in front of the tool for a few seconds if is held down. Use it to chop off several limbs simultaneously. The secondary fire ejects a single sawblade with high speed. To make the most of it, line up your enemies as the ejected sawblade can slice through multiple limbs. The Ripper is considered to be the most ammunition-efficient weapons in this game. However, it requires some training to wield it properly as the sawblade's reach doesn't extend far and may pass through an enemy without damage it if the reticule isn't focused on said target. Memorising the sawblade's reach is essential.

The Dead Space franchise includes various types of adaptations and merchandise outside of the video games. EA's multimedia efforts to market the franchise includes novels, comic books, animated films, and other licensed products like action figures of series protagonist Isaac Clarke.

Dead Space: Aftermath is the 2011 animated film sequel to Downfall and the first game. EarthGov exposes an unsuspecting crew of individuals to the remaining shards of the destroyed Marker and is depicted as attempting to produce a viable "Marker blueprint" carrier, by any means necessary.

One of the founding gameplay principles was "strategic dismemberment", the focus on severing limbs to kill enemies. This distinguished Dead Space from the majority of shooters, which instead placed focus on headshots, or allowed volleys of weapons fire against enemies. Weapons accuracy and enemy behaviour were adjusted around this concept. [23] [32] For example, enemies became enraged by traditional headshots and charged at the player, rather than being killed instantly. [32] A two-person co-op multiplayer option was prototyped over a three month period, but was eventually cut so that the team could focus on making a polished single-player experience.
