    Dead Space Extraction

    Game » consists of 10 releases. Released Sep 28, 2009

    A prequel to Dead Space, Extraction tells the story of the original Necromorph outbreak on the USG Ishimura. The game trades the original's third-person action for a hectic on-rails shooter from a first-person perspective.

    Dead Space: Extraction


    Extraction is the prequel to the original Dead Space and it puts you in the perspective of a number of different people. What this game does best is tell a great story all while giving you plenty of things to kill, on top of that it has a few truly great moments ( The end of chapter nine is great ) That help make extraction a worthwhile journy, even if it's only worth going through once. The technical side of the game is also great, though the framerate slows down in heavy action and the game froze on me once. Voice acting is good and the sound effects and music are just right. For an on-rails shooter this is a great game, it manages to tell a compelling story and hold your interest for the 6 hour journey. Also worth a look are the extras, mostly just for the fully voiced comics. I had a lot of fun with Extraction and it has given me the drive to play Dead Space just to see what happens next. A worthwhile rental indeed.

      Dead Space Extraction(Wii) by modeps on October 05, 2009

       With the first Dead Space, Visceral Games (formerly EA Redwood Shores) had finally found something they were good at. These developers of The Simpsons Game and The Godfather: The Game had luke warm reception of their first games, but nailed it with a horror themed, isolationist third person title set inside the massive USG Ishimura. While Dead Space: Extraction remains in the horror genre, it takes a decidedly different approach and sets you along what the publisher defines as a "guided experie...

      Dead Space Extraction(Wii) by systemlink on October 12, 2009

      After much forethought and soul-searching, it dawned on me that my favorite game of last year may have been Dead Space. It came out of nowhere, had a deep and truly scary atmosphere, and some of the most entertaining gameplay I had in all of 2008. What I found most surprising though was in its story, which created a universe filled not just with pants-shittingly terrifying monsters, but also rife with deep political and religious intrigue. So I was interested to find that Visceral Games and EA...
