The developers of Moonbase Alpha, a simulator where you play an astronaut, had no idea that their text-to-speech tool would be the one thing that put their game on the map. This is trolling at its finest and not in a bad sense either. See, the developers installed this text-to-speech tool to help the alpha testers communicate until they got the VOIP functioning. Whatever you type into the chat bar, gets read aloud by a computer-like voice. The alpha testers enjoyed it so much that the developers decided to keep it.

Dead Space is an awesome game, and I'm a sucker for space horror (see: Alien), but I don't think they go to the moon in that one.
