Yeah, it was a verrry polished game.  No faults but I understand why it wasn't goty.  Poor Hammond! Kendra made us kind of hate him! That BEEEEEAAAAACH!

Check it

In the Goty bombcast The guys talked about how it was cool that a certain character "got his."

Who were they referring to? 

Kendra died... very cool.  but she isn't male.

Hammond died but he never betrayed you.

Kyne died but he wasn't evil.

Mercer?  he kinda just let himself be necromorphed... 

Must have been Mercer

All right, check it...

I just finished Dead Space for the first time last night... in a dark room with a tv on the floor.  Kinda friggin' creepy... Chapter 10 in particular.  56 percent of the trophies.  One gun.  Awesome.

Totally deserved the nom for GOTY.  The gameplay was fantastic, though it was comparable to Resident Evil 4:   3rd person behind the back, hold trigger to raise weapon, melee.  I enjoyed the hell out of Res 4 on the Cube and again on the PS2, but it simply didn't pull off what Dead Space did.  Pulling of a context-sensitive suplex isn't the same as manually stomping some dude's arm off.  Resident Evil 4 was terrifying at he beginning but eventuall became far too outlandish to keep me scared.  Still fantastic, but not scary.

I'm not being critical of the Resident Evil Series: different generations.

But what does this say for Res 5?  The gameplay footage up here looks pretty.  But it still appears to be the same gameplay as Resident Evil 4.  Dead Space did appear to be as generic as hell, but everyone was amazed when it came out... so Res 5 will do the same.  It simply doesn't seem to do anything new.  I'm hoping it will have that intangible quality that made Dead Space so great.  I've got a PS3 so I won't be trying the Demo for a bit... Oh well. maybe my opinion will change.

Actually I thought it was kind of meh.  The game could go either way.  A few good Boo moments but nothing new.  The Mech sequence wasn't what it could have been.  Didn't blow my mind the way the first FEAR demo did.  I did like that it felt better suited to consoles than the original.
