I cannot wait to play this game, it seems like forever since I first booted up the original.

Awesome and I though purposely flying off into space suicides in the first one was fun.

This is unfortunately reminiscent of several sequences in God of War 3, all of which were terrible.

I thought the same exact thing.  Looks cool, but hopefully it controls better than the GoW 3 sequences.

Gotta say the visuals have taken a dramatic bump in quality each time they show it.

looks cool. Hopefully there'll be way more enemy types in this game. First one was awesome but I got tired of the enemies after a while

I think there's something wrong with me. 
 
I was really excited for Dead Space 2. 
 
Then I saw this trailer, and now I'm not excited anymore. 
 
Maybe it was the voice acting?

What I liked about Dead Space was the feeling of isolation, the thought that if you got into trouble nobody would be able to reach you for weeks or months. I just hope they lay off the weird FEAR-type psychological stuff, and make a sequel that isn't like the second half of Event Horizon.

@MuttersomeTaxicab: Or maybe it was the incredibly annoying jumps to black with unnecessarily loud music clashes.

Shit... being an engineer in Dead Space is even more dangerous than being part of the mobile infantry in Starship Troopers.

Everytime i watch a deadspace 2 video i feel that way. I am going to avoid all media for dead space now, they dont know how to keep things as a surprise.

 It looks cool. 
 But why the hell would you design something like that??!! It seems like the most dangerous solution to move from one place to another in space.   
 
 Why do I feel like I don't want this game anymore I wonder. There's nothing wrong with it, yet I feel like they are taking it to a direction I don't want to go.
  
Also God of War 3.

For all my complaints about Visceral Games, I do so love Dead Space's zero gravity vacuum bits. Not alot of games portray space as quiet these days.

Before GoW 3, MDK had already done this sort of thing, and even back then (when they were a novelty) these were the worst parts of an otherwise awesome game. I hope they don't use these very frequently in Dead Space 2. Also, the game is looking like it's gonna have more action and less suspense, and that kinda puts me off a little : /

@KillyDarko:
The openin of MDK2 was the first thing that came to mind when watching this.  Yeah, releasing a trailer featuring a hazard course freefall sequence is a really odd choice.  Heck, X-men:  Origins: Wolverine had one of these, but it was never its own trailer.

Who would ever invent this!?! A rocket powered backpack that you use to jettison yourself through space. This game seemed at least practical before but dude why would a mining colony ever need this!?!

Why do I feel like Visceral has lost all sense of craft and is now out to make 14 year olds get hype?  Dead Space wasn't awesome because Isaac was a memetic badass.  It was awesome because the ship was a spacefaring death hazard and Isaac was a competent, but regular, guy.  The end boss of Dead Space was killed while you were being held by your foot, about to be eaten.  It feels like the boss of Dead Space 2 will be a Kratos-style experience of yanking eyes out with pure strength.

@PjotrLeschenko: You should easily be able to find it for under $20. It's absolutely worth it at that price.

I think it would be better without the music. It could just be in there for the clip though.

This trailer seems to serve no purpose except to make an awesome sequence less awesome when you're actually playing the game. Are they gonna release trailers that show Isaac beating all the bosses, too? :P
