GAMING - DEAD SPACE - AN OVERVIEW




Dead Space is a fictitious Third-person shooter video game, being developed by EA Redwood Shores,for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.
The crux of the game is Isaac Clarke, a space engineer who works for the Concordance Extraction Corporation (C.E.C), a company that repairs "giant mining ships". His company receives a distress call from the USG Ishimura, a “Planet Cracker” class ship that takes dead planets, and destroys them to extract valuable ore for the company. In the assumption that the ship has had a mechanical failure, Isaac gathers coworkers Lt. Zach Hammond, security officer, and Kendra Daniels, local Tech specialist.
The alien infestation factor becomes clear when the player sees a hovering yellow space slug vomiting white puss into the mouth of a screaming soldier who melts under the corrosive fluid into a deformed, deranged alien beast. Then, when the melted, slimy ex-man shambles towards the player, quivering with tentacles and cannibalistic intent, the survival half of the horror then kicks into the game. As the player unloads his weapons on the enemy, it becomes clear that this is no ordinary nemesis. Taking off it's head, it's arm or it's leg is not going to stop it. The player's only hope, as he makes his way about repairing the ship, is to dismember the creatures up completely before they make Issac into one of them.The team soon finds that the ship has been overrun by a mysterious alien race. After boarding the ship, Clarke is separated from his party and this routine check becomes a race for his life.
it will hit the gaming market by october 2008
