The slow decay of survival horror
Survival horror games aren't what they used to be. Once upon a time, they were about survival and horror. It makes sense. It's what the genre is called, after all.

Over the years, they've increasingly become about action, gunfights, and an overload of cheap jump scares. I prefer the former, despite a plethora of the latter.
[REDACTED] and Dead Space 2–Double snooze!
After putting [REDACTED] aside, I moved on to Dead Space 2.

After getting through about a third of it, I can’t imagine why anyone would think so highly of it.

That is what YouTube's kipkay did with the cute replica plasma cutter that came with Dead Space 2—he turned it awesome.
By the way, our lawyers told us to caution you that this looks dangerous. Do not try this at home. And if you do, do not blame us for burning your balloons, figurines or eyeballs.

Dress like Dead Space’s Issac Clarke, keep street cred
Do you love Dead Space? Do you love Dead Space so much that you want to look like its protagonist Issac Clarke? What if you are too insecure to go all out and dress up in a full-on the engineer's suit? Well, you might be in luck.
