Was that girl DSG?
CJLopez @ Aug 7th 2009 8:56PM
yes she was, and please, leave her where she is
Foetoid @ Aug 7th 2009 10:12PM
NO! Bring her back!!!

I don't have a Wii but if I did I'd try this. It's just a light rail shooter, I think it would control OK.
Anthony @ Aug 7th 2009 3:58PM
Still say this game would be better if they included your arm and weapon in the scene..wouldn't be too hard for them to do this and still keep it an onrails shooter. I hate just seeing that damn aiming reticule and no weapon.

Plasma Cutters always improve my level of business.
Storm Eagle [Resident Capcom Megafan] @ Aug 7th 2009 2:04PM
This game looks pretty good. I don't even mind it being an on-rails shooter. Less to worry about and I can better focus on cutting my enemies into itty bitty pieces.
Obie @ Aug 7th 2009 2:12PM
Gotta say that is one sweet lookin' Wii game!

"Parallel to the comic and animated feature"
Why would you do that? The comic was good but the animated film was poor and it really f'd up the time line (There was also a naked fat man).
Following the plot of The Game, the comics and the animated film these guys are pretty much going to die in this game.

There's a chain-of-command for Wii haters here, my friend. You can't just rush in. You have to defer to the ones who have been doing it a lot longer than you.
squeehunter @ Aug 7th 2009 3:35PM
Yeah, because the Wii is REALLY bad at pointing at things and shooting them...
whylekat @ Aug 7th 2009 3:45PM
Love Dead Space. I hope they continue this franchise/universe on other consoles that don't employ shoddy motion controls. =P
sk8monroe81 (PSN--XBL) @ Aug 7th 2009 10:43PM
yeah that was already confirmed and the wii is the only console NOW with motion controllers so whatever...
and id rather play dead space 2 with a 360/ps3 controller over natal or ps3 motion...
whylekat @ Aug 7th 2009 11:24PM
Exactly my point.
whylekat @ Aug 7th 2009 3:49PM
Mr Kahn has a point. Scroll down to my post to see how to properally hate on the wii. The trick is to not mention the system itself. For it is evil, and makes everyone who uses it look terribly foolish.
MillRecover @ Aug 7th 2009 4:45PM
Does anyone else think that the guy at 2:59 looks like President Obama?
freaparn @ Aug 7th 2009 4:15PM
I enjoyed Dead Space, but it was more *in spite of* the story rather than because of it... guess we'll see how this plays out.
TreND @ Aug 7th 2009 5:08PM
i wish the wiimote was gun shaped... cuz im buying this
Manly Mcbeefington (Mr. ESC Vice President and PR of Wiizers Sweatshop Inc.) @ Aug 7th 2009 5:10PM
You can buy the Wii zapper and pretend is a really lousy nerf gun.
Edward J Grug III @ Aug 8th 2009 2:35AM
If you get the House of the Dead: Overkill bundle, it comes with a really great couple of gun-shells, plus the game is awesome. Otherwise, I'd be surprised if there isn't some kind of bundle with this one with new shells.
Dv8thwonder @ Aug 7th 2009 5:18PM
Why is the Wii getting hate fora game that essentially Resident Evil in space? And why are rail shooters all of sudden a bad thing. This new generation of gamers has me concerned for the future gamers yet to come.
sk8monroe81 (PSN--XBL) @ Aug 7th 2009 10:50PM
dead space was great IMO...
but things change all the time... most of it has to do in which the way these products are mass marketed to us.... the general public is bound to more often buy the most advertised items so depending
whether it be the lost boys in the 80's, interview with the vampire in the 90's, balde in the '00 years, and now were left with sparkling glitter vampires in twilight moving forwing into the '10 years... it doesnt mean I like the change, but it definitely happens.
but I would blame the marketing dept and large gaming corporations which control a big chunk of the entire gaming market and are sometimes able to play with our buying decisions based upon whether we like a product/brand/franchise/etc or not.
we all continue to grow up and it happens so damn fast..... but ''darn kidz these days''
random splat. peace.
MRLN, Fountain of Wisdom and Wit @ Aug 7th 2009 5:53PM
I generally don't like rail shooters, but that's because they're arcade games and don't have a good story (I know, why don't I just read even more books?)
This looks really interesting, though.
Paul @ Aug 7th 2009 7:14PM
having grown up on on rails and such i disagree with you. Have you not played any of the house of the deads?...those games were complex in the story lines...on rail games are fun..and the wii deserves this game..how can ANY gamer who thinks they are a gamer hate a game and a console?..thats just total hypocrisy
as a true gamer who owns all consoles and alot of different types of games...i say shame on you people who call yourselves gamers!

The real question is: Can you run Crysis at max settings?
Vandell @ Aug 7th 2009 6:36PM
"Boo" isn't that scary..
