you haven't played Dead Space? buy it and live

correction: buy it and die of being scared.... very scared

I don't know if I would recommend it. The concept is fantastic, the atmosphere is perfect, but the scariest part of the game is the completely broken mouse control system. I assume that if you play wiith a controller it wouldn't matter, but its something to bear in mind.

MT Alex · Jan 22, 2011

Not the greatest, but cheap. Medal of Honor is now $20 on Amazon, down from $60, still $40 on Steam.

BumbleBee · Jan 22, 2011

looks like the Dead Space 2 embargo was lifted. IGN reviewed the PS3 version and gave it a 9.0

Hybrid_theory · Jan 23, 2011

Hey guys, dont know if this aa deal worth posting or not. But was in a EBgames store and picked ip singularity for $10. can get it on pc, 360, ps3. not sure if this is store wide or not.

Mr McC · Jan 27, 2011

Has anybody tried APOX? It looks interesting, but I have only found one review.

I can't believe there has been no Dead Space 2 talk.

* Giant Bomb (5/5): "Just like its predecessor, Dead Space 2 doesn't do anything especially new, it just does everything exceedingly well."
* CVG (95/100): "Polished, sickening, satisfying and occasionally heart-testing, Dead Space 2 is undoubtedly the best horror adventure on Xbox 360 and PS3. It's the Resident Evil of this generation - and it'll leave you an emotional wreck."
* Eurogamer (90/100): "The linearity and reliance on set-piece shocks can often make Dead Space 2 feel like a multi-million dollar Ghost Train ride at a funfair. Overuse of 'mash-the-A-button-to-escape-the-monster' moments jars with the more distinguished mechanics elsewhere."
* IGN (90/100): "The shocking moments, the gruesome deaths, and the fun of playing through this experience again and again are what I took away from this one."
* Game Informer (90/100): "Dead Space 2 is a monster of a sequel, offering bigger scares and more excitement than I expected. I enjoyed Isaac as a silent protagonist in the original game, and I find I like him even more now that he's found his voice."
* Gamespot (85/100) "a campaign that simultaneously leaves you satisfied and eager for more, and intense multiplayer that gives you a great reason to keep coming back to this terrifying universe. Unless you're just plain chicken, this is a sci-fi horror adventure you definitely want to suit up for"

the PC version doesn't have any issues with the mouse, but the frame rate is locked at 30 with VSync. EA announced Dead Space 2 DLC but it won't be coming to PC which is disappointing because the DLC adds 2 chapters to the single player campaign

i see piracy in this games future... and an FPS unlocker

BumbleBee · Jan 27, 2011

I think you need D3DOverrider. I didn't buy the PC version. it took me about 12 hours to complete the single player campaign and there is incentive for re-playability. I tried the multiplayer and it's no Left 4 Dead but it's not bad either.

D3DO can force Vsync and triple buffer, cant unlock FPS.

an FPS unlocker was made for war for cybertron very early on, to great effect.

I have that FPS unlocker. It was GREATLY needed. 30 FPS sucks on a PC.

I have the DoW 2 + Chaos Rising, but I do miss the classic DoW and have since sold my cd's. I am really considering picking the DoW 1 collection up...it was badass years ago.

I see SPY! · Feb 10, 2011

HAWX for the weekend deal :ohwell:

jasper1605 · Feb 11, 2011

Too bad hawx 2 was no where as good as the first one. I regret every last 5,499 pennies that I spent on that game as it was such a downgrade from the first

Impulse has a Gothic Bundle on sale this weekend.
Gothic 2 Gold, Gothic 3 GOTY, Gothic 3: Forsaken Gods and Gothic 4 : Arcania ... all for $27.19

Is Gothic any good? Worth the $27 for these?

I've heard mixed revews, with some people who love the series, other hate it. I saw it on Impulse too, and was considering...

n-ster · Feb 11, 2011

idk how you guys do it xD On PC, the games I buy myself are only when it is REALLY worth it. else everything else are gifts or were handed down to me. ie: BF BC2 at 6.79$ or something, Vietnam + SPECTAT + Miror's edge SimCity 4 for ~12$, King Arthur 2.99$ + both DLCs and Saxons 1.49$. These are my only purchases since Christmas (except BC2 I bought twice, one was a gift for my cousin)

Yes I have a job :eek:

but max I'd pay for a game is 20~25$

Only if it is good/great
