Destructoid: Here what to expect from Dead Space Ignition

destructoid writes:
Visceral is going in a new direction with their Dead Space expanded universe with Dead Space Ignition. This interactive comic prequel is set just before Dead Space 2 and is presented as a choose your own adventure story. Your decisions will lead you down one of four paths and the endings for each path will unlock special items -- such as a suit for Isaac -- in the upcoming game.

The story in Ignition follows an engineer named Franco. He's busy fixing equipment when he's called to fix a malfunctioning heavy door. Franco, along with his flirty lady friend, arrive to fix the issue only to discover the controls for the door may have been sabotaged.

Once the scene is over, the player will engage in a mini-game called Trace Route to fix the door. The player is in control of a red electrical signal and has to race against the computer in order to reach the system core.

Might want to fix the title before it goes to front page. If it gets approved.

Dead Space Extraction better than the original Dead Space?

Okaaaaay...

lucian229659d ago

I played all three. Didn't find them fun, just had nothing to play. I don't think I beat third game though. Combat was super clunky, graphics and art design were ugly imo, story in first game wasn't too bad, rest were meh.

Over hyped series imo, also it doesn't help horror games don't scare me, so I guess that's a big reason for me too.

Play Alien Isolation on Hard or Nightmare.

Start on the movie DLC so that you don’t have to play a bunch of campaign in order to find out if you’ll be scared.

lucian229659d ago

I heard that was a good one. Honestly vr games scare me with jump scares because of how the threat feels real.

MIDGETonSTILTS17659d ago

There isn’t an official VR mode, unfortunately.

The audio should pull you right in if you use headphones.

CDbiggen659d ago

Just finished playing the first, enjoyed the fact Isaac was a silent alien crushing psycho doom-guy type. Just started the second yesterday and I'm annoyed he's a talker now and sounds like a regular guy who hasn't been through hell, but I suppose he couldn't remain silent.

VersusDMC659d ago

Dead Space 2 is my favorite followed by 1 then 3. All are good to me though. Just beat all 3 on series X and they hold up.

Xenial658d ago

As simple as 1,2,3.

Extraction, then Ignition.

10 more arrivals hit home with Xbox One Backwards Compatibility – Are they worth the return?

Carlos writes "It’s been a great month so far for the backwards compatibility scheme on Xbox One, but this week may just be the busiest week of all since its introduction. 10 more Xbox 360 titles have made the generational jump and are now playable on Xbox One, so let’s take a look and see if they are worth returning to once more."

Is Dead Space 1 on BC? That was the best one.

XMarkstheSpot2580d ago

And its part of EA Access, hoping they put 2 and 3 in the Vault so I can replay those aswell, never beat 3 Co-Op

brich2332579d ago

Yeah, its been there since about the release of BC.

Cobra9512580d ago

Nothing I care about there. Too bad.

rando 2580d ago

xbox is killing it with backwards compatibility. but they'll STILL find a way to downvote any xbox-positive comment into oblivion. N4G is completely infested with Sony fanboys lol smh

superchiller2580d ago

While I agree with your comment about BC being a great thing, I downvoted you because of your fanboy comments about Sony. I own both the XB1 and PS4 and enjoy both of them, and really appreciate that MS has worked so hard to bring 360 games to the XB1.

rando 2580d ago

@ superchiller: my comment was about N4G not about Sony. so i'm going to give your reading comprehension a downvote.

Razzer2579d ago (Edited 2579d ago )

Nice job turning an Xbox positive article into a whine about fanboys. You are as bad as the people you whine about, dude.

rando 2579d ago

@ Razzer: i'll just say something like "phil spencer is doing a great job" & it'll have 50 downvotes for no reason... if somebody says "Phil Spencer, more like FAIL Spencer... amirite?" it will have 50+ upvotes & top comment. if you're pro-xbox, commenting on N4G gets annoying after awhile. you already know what people's opinion is going to be. PS4 = good. / XB1 = bad. no matter what good xbox does, its never good enough for them. it got so bad to the point where i had to address it. so i did.

Many-hat52578d ago

Yep. Oblivion is on there also.

Shadow Man2580d ago

Where is my silent hill HD collection ?

Lon3wolf2579d ago

Infinite Undiscovery please, when BD and LO got done I was hoping for that soon.

VincentCastle2579d ago

same, that and resonance of fate, magna carta 2, eternal sonata, fable 1, maybe even star ocean 4.

Lon3wolf2579d ago

Indeed, we can only hope :)

I have never played Dead space. Trying to decide if I should start that or Go for Diablo3. I know I would like Diablo3, but I have to pay for that. Don't mind doing so if Dead space turns out to be not for me and Diablo is not more than $40.

Kribwalker2674d ago

You could do both. Just buy one month sub for EA for $5 and give it a shot, and then buy diablo

Had to look up what Dead Space Ignition was. Too bad to see bad creative decisions stall the potential of an IP. Happens too often today :(

Profchaos2673d ago

I don't know why but I just can't really get into skate 3 or 2 but I loved skate 1.

My thinking is because the story they tried to add in was cringeworthy and detracted from the actual skating as opposed to skate 1 which was purely focused on skating and meeting the world's best and competing.

Plus I think graphics and the camera angels are better in 1

monsoon_moon2673d ago

I liked 3, but 1 was my favourite, first game I got 1000g and I also couldn't get on with 2 either. They just need to announce Skate 4 already!

Boobgrabber2673d ago

Why does it say free on the title if you have to pay a subscription?
