Tell him to try again on the hardest difficulty that is unlocked if he want's a more RE:4 style of play. I don't think I've ever seen a game with a bigger change in difficulty from normal to hard, and I haven't even tried the highest setting. Normal (which I enjoyed a lot) played like your basic TPS, with some scary elements, sweet enviornments and weapons. While Hard (which I enjoyed a lot more) played like a ridiculously hard version of RE:4. I went from constantly selling excess ammo in Normal and not being able to pick anything up due to a full inventory, to buying as much ammo as I could every time I found a store and never once filling my inventory in hard. There was so much more strategy involved, and the skills come in much much much much more handy. I think the game was meant to be played on at least hard, but the developers probably felt making the current hard into normal would turn most people off of the game for it being too difficult.

Well I hope your bother leaves enough room for my fist because I'm going to ram it into his stomach...

How old is he? but I bet he will love Dead Space Extraction!

WTF would we care what your brother thinks? He wants us to know, tell him to sign his ass up. I'm much more interested in what YOU think.

There's nothing suprising. It's greatly overhyped by reviewers who wanted to show EA making orginal games is better than same series all the time. Real scores for it should be around 7/10. And no I haven't finished full version since I don't buy stuff where demo bores me after 15 minutes.

I hated it too, I give it a 2/10. I played it for 4 hours, gave it a giant "Meh" and promptly returned it to the rental-store.

What are you talking about. The game is GREAT! Best 2008 game for me. I give it 9.5/10. Dead Space is the best science-fiction horror third person shooter game I ever played and is scary as hell. This is a game you really need to play on a big high-def TV with a good, bass-heavy sound system in a dark room late at night. It just gets better and better from level to level.

Dead Space is a game for shooter fans! Not for Resident Evil fans. It is more third person shooter then survival horror game - just opposite of RE4. I like it more then Resident Evil 4, cos I don't care about story. I care about gameplay and I'm more shooter fan then survival horror fan. IMO Dead Space offers much better gameplay as a shooter then RE4. BTW for a shooter Dead Space had excellent story.

If he loves roller coasters

I have not played this game yet but it is on the list after Killzone 2 and Prince of Persia (which is a hell of a lot better than i thought it was going to be, so that was a nice surprise)
