Dead Space 2

[greatandfoolish]

nobody was really helping me with the green unitology code stuff so i kinda hit a dead end with it, gave up for now

[Souj]

the collective internet gave up after many realized that the code stuff probably hasn't been fully implemented

[Kaisha]

I sold out to corporate America, all about the benjamins baby. Puffy and Kim would be proud.

Lies. You did it just to play the latest and greatest from EA before most people.


Anyone figure out how the heck to get the high scores in Extraction's challenges? I got a pretty damn good aim, but even then I don't even rank near the top, must be a technique or something I'm unaware of that's needed to get a combo modifier going or something.

The Voice Of Dead Space 2 Wants To Go HollywoodGunner Wright voices engineer-turned-hero Isaac Clarke in Dead Space 2. And he's more than ready to tackle any foreseeable film role.

"I feel like we already shot a film, one that you can play," Wright tells horror site Hell Descent. "As for DS2 live action, I already have the plasma cutter so lets roll camera...give the heart wrenching romantic tear jerker to someone else."

Besides voicing Clarke, Wright stars in the upcoming flick Bro' with Danny Trejo and had bit roles in All My Children and G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

"I'm more than interested," Wright added about a Dead Space flick. "I'm ready to go. Absolutely."

As for a Dead Space movie, Dead Space co-creator Ian Milham told the BBC earlier this month, "We would love to have a live action film and we've had a lot of discussion."

Severed will be out on March 1st, for $6.99 or 560 MS points.

There's a trailer and stuff here: http://www.destructoid.com/dead-spac...r-194830.phtml. Lexine looks kinda like shit in this engine haha...

I bet beating the DLC will give you Gabe's suit to use on Isaac in the main game, but that's just a guess. Can't wait!

ungggh yes

for those who have played extraction:

Spoiler: show

I was always under the impression that Nathan McNeill (the guy you play as for most of DS:E, who cuts his arm off at the end of the game) had a thing with Lexine and that the two of them would end up together, so I really wonder where he is during this DLC. If you remember the ending of DS:E, Lexine is attacked by a necromorph on the shuttle en route the Sprawl, could it be possible that Nathan somehow got infected and turned into a necro?

Considering Gabe gets shot by Eckhardt, and the fact that he seemed like kinda a 3rd wheel between Nathan and Lexine, I'm kinda surprised that this DLC focuses on his story, but I guess even if Nathan isn't dead it'd be hard to fight necros with only 1 arm.

Spoiler: show

The going theory I've seen is that Nathan turned into a necro and Gabe had to off him, but that's all forum speculation and whatnot. Hopefully they explain it in detail since that's one of the few totally unexplained parts left in the current timeline from Titan outbreak > end of DS2

boo nothing you can import into the main game.

[Atreides]

they may have been mistaken though, they said they only played through the first 20 mins or so of the DLC. I am guessing you'll at least be able to import Gabe's suit into the main game, not that Isaac needs any more suits lol

[Callisto]

Didn't it say specifically elsewhere that beating it lets you use Gabe's suit as Isaac?

[Souj]

someone said it in this thread, but they were speculating.

[Ragnus]

Bit late on this but holy shit the zealot suit / force gun own ass.

[Kaisha]

Awesome, I get to start from scratch on my new ps3 because Visceral thought making saves copy-protected on what is essentially an offline game a smart decision. (meh @ multiplayer)

[Ragnus]

Oh man. That's so lame.

I'm only playing on Survivalist right now but overall I'm finding the game to be a lot more brutal and unforgiving than DS1. I'm liking it to be honest.

[Oravis]

In severed am I supposed to have access to the hand cannon? Seems weird that they would allow that to transfer over. Guess I'll avoid using it on my first playthrough.

[Souj]

oh, this came out already?

[Oravis]

Yep, trophies seem glitched though. I have them in my Dead space 2 list but not on my current trophies list.

[Souj]

Here's the big question.
Is it worth the $7?

[Atreides]

I think so, especially if you're interested in seeing what happens to the characters from Extraction. They do give you some hints about a larger plot that might come into play in DS3 or future DLC or something. It's about 3 hours long and you'll probably end up playing it at least twice to get all the trophies. 7 dollars seems like an appropriate price.

[Odesseiron]

What about if you never played or know nothing about extraction, worth it then?

[Atreides]

it's basically just more of the same so if you like DS2 you won't be dissapointed, 2 chapters for 7 bucks isn't too terrible considering the whole game is like 15 for 60. There are some new areas but mostly you're seeing the aftermath of what isaac did so that's kinda neat, and the trophies/achievements add some replay value. Considering an add-on like this would cost 800 points/10 bucks most of the time I don't think 7 bucks is a bad deal at all.
