I thought the plot was okay but not as good as the plot in the first game.

This time around Isaac is voiced and the performance is pretty good as is the rest of the voice acting. Isaac sets out on a quest to destroy the Marker and meets up with CEC Pilot Ellie Langford who agrees to accompany him on his mission and look after Stross. Nolan Stross was a character in the film Dead Space: Aftermath. Isaac is contacted by NPC’s and learns that a new Marker was built using the information from Isaac and Nolan Stross’ brains. Isaac is in an insane asylum when a Necromorph outbreak allows him to escape and he frequently has hallucinations of Nicole, his deceased girlfriend. Dead Space 2 is set three years after the events of the first game and the setting is the Sprawl, a space station on the last remaining shard of Titan, one of Saturn’s moons.

You do have the option to watch a recap of the events of the first game so you’re all caught up with the story if you want. Much like the PC version of the first game, I would highly recommend you consult the game’s PCGamingWiki page because there are several issues I would suggest you address before playing. There are four special rooms in the game which are only unlocked by completing Ignition but there is a workaround to get into them on PC. Unfortunately, the Severed DLC did not make it to PC nor did Dead Space Ignition. For this review, I played the PC version. Developed by Visceral Games and published by EA, Dead Space 2 was released for PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 in January, 2011. Dead Space 2 continues the story of Isaac Clarke and his fight against the Necromorphs. It spawned a comic book, films, the prequel Dead Space: Extraction which is a rail shooter, and two sequels. Dead Space is a fantastic horror game with a focus on dismemberment-based gunplay.
