The game's plot revolves around 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. As they set out to meet with the ship upon the cruiser class Kellion, they soon realize that this is no ordinary distress call. The team soon finds that the ship has been overrun by a mysterious alien race. After boarding the ship, the Isaac Clarke is separated from his party and this routine check becomes a race for his life

IGN Review 8.7
IGN - October 10, 2008
Submitted by Animate (241) at 5:11PM PST on October 10, 2008
Call it science fiction survival horror, but Dead Space does the genre proud with an engaging story; action that's tense, fast-paced and extremely violent; as well as atmospheric qualities that will get under your skin and make you jump. It may be a newcomer, but the seeds of an incredible franchise have been sown, and EA's in a great position to reap a phenomenal franchise full of scares. If you like survival horror, action or sci-fi, Dead Space needs to be on your radar.

EA: Dead Space wouldn't have happened a few years ago
Video Gamer - September 22, 2008
Submitted by noobie (468) at 11:53AM PST on September 22, 2008
An EA game like Dead Space simply "wouldn't have happened" prior to the company's change of strategy two years ago, according to gameplay engineer David Yee. Following his appointment in 2007, CEO John Riccitiello has encouraged a focus on original intellectual properties - a move which has proved popular among the design staff, according to Yee.

"EA is looking to the PS3 as its lead platform on many games."
Any URL for article(s) that mentioned this ? I didn't remember reading this kind of article, and it is quite important (it could significantly affect X360 and PS3 GLS). Heck, it could be the basis of price pressure for X360, and significant GLS increase for PS3.[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 14935 ]bids
1kspraydad posted on Dead Space (PS3) at 9:25PM PST on September 27, 2008. RE: EA: Dead Space not banned from Germany yet@Bucser,Your commentary MAY be relevant re PS3 vs Xbox IF the Xbox is the lead platform. However, when PS3 is the lead platform is is the Xbox versions that suffer.
Dead Space has the PS3 as its lead platform for the last while...similar to how Criterion handled Burnout Paradise.
It would be good to remember that moving forward EA is looking to the PS3 as its lead platform on many games.

1Bucser posted on Dead Space (PS3) at 7:20AM PST on September 27, 2008. RE: EA: Dead Space not banned from Germany yet@deftangel,
With the usual problems of the multiplatform titles on the PS3 (lower resolution or lower framerate, stutters and texture/geometry pop-ups) it will just get a lower score as the X360 counterpart.
The game itself is nothing new at all. Kill the aliens in various ways in a depressing environment and solve puzzles while killing the bad monsters using the built-in physics.
I think this game (at maximum) will get a rating of 80% average.[ Veteran ] [ Level 6 ] [ Rank: 2172 ]
