You need to be a man with BIG balls to be able to play Dead Space at 2 AM in the middle of the night. I remember when the dead space 2 demo came out and I didn't really know the franchise that well (just thought it was a generic space shooter), one of my friends told me to download it and play it at night.
So I thought why the heck not, whats the big deal with playing a shooter at night, I always do that? So I started the sucker up at 2 AM all ready to kick some alien backs. So the game started I was walking down this hallway for a few minutes, collecting guns and pressing buttons here and there. Nothing happened, I was getting kind of bored.
So I kept going, I was walking down this empty corridor with large test tubes on the right. I was walking, minding my own business WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN A HIDEOUS THING JUMPED OUT OF THE TEST TUBE.
I almost wet myself and threw the controller up in the air. My heart beat jumped up to some crazy max amount and the monster proceeded to pour some kind of acid on my head liquifying it. Although I finished the demo, didn't play the game ever since. The game manages to scare you when you least expect it. Just when you think its safe and take a chill pill is when the monsters attack you.
