can't wait till its out but confused when they say its set 3yrs after the first game escially after the ending in the first one shock she comes back to life did he kill her or not in her necromorph form or not

::::::::::SPOILERS:::::::::::::

That was a hallucination.  Towards the end the rest of the video transmission she sent is shown, which reveals that she was in fact killed before you ever arrived on the Ishimura.  Multiple times throughout the game its described how the crew began hallucinating, and even miss daniels explains how she hallucinates at one point.  Everytime you see Isaac's girl, its a hallucination.  Basically this just shows that the marker is still having a latent effect on Isaac's mind.  The real question is, does that indicate that replacing the marker didn't contain the problem (which I suspect is the case, considering the sequel is coming), or does it just mean Isaac's head is pretty screwed up from his experience still?  I know my head would be pretty screwed after that.

I've never played Dead Space but from what you guys are saying it sounds like I need to!

You should first play the demo and see if you like the gameplay. If you like killing monsters and alliens you will love the game

gingerninja1140 – couldn't agree more.. Why does every developer think online needs to be there? It doesn't.. 

But on the other hand, i never thought Uncharted needed multiplayer, but when it got it.. it was brilliant. But i have heard that Bioshock 2 multiplayer is not that good.. but we will see. 

Whatever happens, happens. Lets wait till we get some more info on this game, as long as their is a single player experience which is half as good as the last one, i will be a happy customer!

Well… I think there could be some real potential with the multiplayer. I got the GI mag with the exclusive news – in it they said that many developers are coming to the conclusion that without multiplayer the game loses replayability.  Without that, people get tired quick and return it, or just rent it, or whatever, it equals less sales.  Visceral said that you will be able to “dismember your friends”, which gives me the impression it will be a sort of L4D style thing, with some people as the humans, and others as the necromorphs hunting them down.  Could be pretty cool.  “Hang on a mo, while I scra- aaaaaGGGHAHHHHHHHH!!!!!  ouuuuccchhh….mah bawls…”

Also – they revealed that the game will begin on a giant space station named the Sprawl, 3 years after the events of the original.  In the beginning, the necromorphs will not have attacked yet, so Isaac will experience the outbreak first hand this time.  Since he has survived a previous encounter with the necromorphs, and knows how to dispatch him, people will turn to him for help and advice, elevating him to a hero role.  However, his mind is still affected by his encounter with the marker 3 years previous, and his level of psychosis will play a large role in the game.  This time around you are more prepared to face the necromorphs, and won't always feel like your short on ammo, overwhelmed, and in confined spaces.  The sprawl will feature bigger open areas, intelligent enemies that require strategy to take out, and powerful weapons to wreak havoc on the necromorphs.  However, there will still be times you have to leave the safer vicinities and explore places with limited resources, that will probably scare the living crap outta you.  Thats the basic summary of the GI 6 page special.  Awesome.
