Fear and suspense arrived on our door mat this morning as we received a copy of Electronic Arts' promising space survival horror effort Dead Space. As Isaac Clarke, a lonely engineer, you are forced to fend of an alien threat with mining equipment in order to save humanity. Not exactly Academy Award calibre script perhaps, but from our early encounters Dead Space we are cautiously optimistic about its merits.

The screens have been captured on Xbox 360 and Dead Space is set to be released in October.

I do most of the posting with help from Kim and Petter M so far... some stuff I translate from Sweden, some from Finland, some from Norway, some from Denmark... but most of the time I just write something of my own (such as the case above).
