Summary: Not worth the time or money
Comment: The controls are poorly executed, sluggish, clunky, and very annoying. The camera angle is maddening, it will literally drive you bonkers. The equipment and story line totally fail to live up to the standard of the movie. Graphics are OK, but nothing truly stands out. There really isn't a redeeming quality about this game. When you factor the much maligned DRM software into the equation, this "game" is best left to the console crowd. There it will suffer the user through one, at most two playthroughs before it becomes a dust collector or sold/traded.

Summary: Great game on consoles falls flat with Securom features
Comment: I had rented this game for the xbox360 and was genuinely interested in getting the game for the PC as that is in my opinion a better format for personal customization, mods, and simply the fun factor. So I go down to my local store and just look at the cover and a store clerk immediately gave me a concerned look and said that Dead Space was something to avoid like the plague. I took that into account and went ahead and bought it a day later and popped the disk into my custom built rig only to find a whole lot of strings attached to this game. The way i use my computer (constantly upgrading and tweaking) I would have run through the allotted registrations in no time. Once I did get the game running it had its bugs some of which were unforgivable. I never really believed EA was out to make a terrible experience for PC gamers but this was the first game I bought from them and it was the last when I promptly returned it. You lost my business EA I have no problem looking elsewhere for publishers that treat their customers right.

Summary: Awesome game, but poor control and few graphical glitches
Comment: I thought this game was simply amazing! The story is about as standard as they come. You are going to a mining ship that needs repair, then you get attacked by an unknown force. Your job is to survive and rescue your fellow mates and uncover the truth. The atmosphere, music, and overall presentation seem futuristic and scary as anything. The selling point, in my opinion, is the atmosphere. You will be scared all throughout and if you have good sounds, you're going to love this game (I have a SB X-Fi card with Headphones and I was scared as anything). If I had to compare this to a movie, I thought of Alien(1&2) gone high tech.
There are a few problems with the game. The first one I noticed is some graphical issues with the game. I'm playing it everything on high at 1680x1050. Everything looked beautiful, except when there is flashing lights or fire (I'm running on a gtx260, w/9800gt for phys-x). It seems to "stutter" the screen a bit. If I turned on v-sync it fixes the problem, but presents a problem with the mouse which is the second problem with the game. Normally the mouse is fine, but if you were to aim at enemies, you'd find that the speed is impossibly slow. Not only that, if you turn on v-sync to fix some of the graphical glitches, it goes even slower to a point where you cannot use it.
Overall though, the game is amazing. There are only a few places where there are strobe lights and such, so you can turn v-sync off to up your mouse speed (note that sensitivity doesn't fix it) and still enjoy a solid game. I know I did.
