I'm so happy Finally reviewed a multiplatform game on PC. I honestly don't have anything bad to say about this game (keep in mind this is EA!), the only thing I disliked was the poor sensitivity, I'm using a 1800dpi mouse and had to max sensitivity on game settings just to make it "bearable". Keep in mind I'm one of those guys who likes doing a 180 turn within half an inch to one inch.

Other than that, it would've been nice to be able to set AA higher in game, but overall it's a fun game. This game was a very welcomed surprise, especially considering all the disappointment that came from Far Cry 2.

TIP: For those of you who feel the mouse control and unresponsive extremely sluggish, just turn off V-sync, believe it or not that's what causing all the problems.

Yeah, it's not THAT bad. I'm just really picky on my sensitivity, since I don't like to move my hand that much, I wouldn't take any points from the score because of that, but it would've been nice for EA to allow for higher sensitivity. I guess it's not really a big deal, but it's just not what I'm used to.

Ive been waiting for your review of this to come out Rob.

However I bought it before you got your review up based on you mentioning it over and over for the past few months on Second Take. But I must say "I have NOT been disappointed". Havnt completed the game yet only on Chapter 7, but Im really loving the frights this game gives.

Its gotten to the point where my wife wont let me play it at night because it gives her nightmares and she cant help but watch me play it when i do.

Also, Id like to make a note: Ive been playing this over my THX sound system and this game sounds better then just about any horror movie out there, Im thinking of letting the sound run on holloween night for when the kiddies come to the door.

Personally I bought it for the 360 knowing that Secure Rom would be on the PC.

I was however anxious to see your score and I believe its fair. I know Dead Space isnt a 10 but its got my vote for Game of the year.

Graphics isn't as what EA hyped it up to be. I was looking for some genuine bloody mess, but it turns out they just made everything really dark to cover up the mediocre graphics, just like second rate horror flicks always take place in the dark so people can't see the cheap effects.

We should discuss the ending once you guys are finished with it. Lots of material to talk about....

oh wow.

Um, Dagger....listen, necrophelia is an affliction that is widely recognized by the American Psychiatric Association, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual and many, many other mental health organizations and associations. So believe me when I tell you that there's no shame in seeking professional help for your unhealthy Quake 4 Amputated Male Torso Obssession Syndrome (QAMTOS).

When the primary concern of the game is to encourage you in every way possible to dismember a body, I don't think you really need a sexy body. This game had me when I got the notice to stop taking bodyshots and start aiming the limbs.

Yes, but they don't look human at all anymore. It's only fun if you amputate human limbs.

I thought the 360 controls worked really good 0 complaint about out. BTW, Leviathan housed me too, took me three times to beat it. Wasnt until I figured out that you could send the ball things back at it to destroy the next one out. However now Im very...Very low on ammo and I think im screwed for the next chapter.

As for the gore, come on. How about the guy in chapter 1 (or 2 i forget) thats just standing there banging his busted bloody skull into the steel wall, or the Doctor chick in the tube that cuts her own throat. I love this game but now i cant play it till the weekend because my wife keeps having nightmares. Lol and i dont help either because I like to make the weird squishy noises like stomping on the bodies when i get board around the house.

Well, so far it's a pretty sweet game. I'm only just starting Chapter 3, it certainly brings a whole new way of killing monsters to a game.

At present i have just the one gripe, i feel the controls are kind of klunky. Like some said before even with a sensitive mouse maxed out it still seems a little slow. I use a Razer Lachesis and i set it at 3750dpi, and max in game. It's playable, but i feel sorry for people with mice with ave dpi settings. I have done the vsync trick.

Another thing i noticed, it's no really a gripe, but this game makes your graphics card get hot. Running Crysis Warhead i don't remember my card getting any higher then 73C, but with Dead Space it has hit 83C. This is with the fan at 75%. It's also OC, but it has been overclocked a very long time. Settings were the exact same with Crysis and Dead Space.

Yeah it hit 86C after 120seconds and was still going up, although slowly at that point.

The OC i have was tested a long time ago using ATITool, and i don't remember it ever getting that hot.

It sitting at 761core 1026mem 1907shader. It's a G92 8800GTS.

Yeah, i'm wondering. Perhaps there just some dust buildup, i'll take it out a clean the case soon.

To me this game is just brilliantly done. Close to one of the best I have ever played if not the best. Story is top notch, graphics are just awe inspiring, the lighting is perfect, and the audio is perfect. I have never jumped in a game but this one made me jump a few times. It should go down as one of the greatest games ever.

i think your being a bit to generous with the score for this game... its about a 6..

ive been playing it on my PC, and i find the controls laggy(i have vsync off, and my computer isnt slow), also with vsync turned off i can see massive screen tearing on any light emitting object, player models are worse than hl2, atmosphere is non existent cause everything is predictable.

I personally cant stand the third person view, i think the game would feel more involved if it was first person. I was expecting allot more from the graphics, they remind me of a game of 2 years ago rather than a brand new title.

its a mediocre game at best.
