The Frighteners: Dead Space 2


They're calling this the lullaby trailer, which means it's soundtracked by a spooky rendition of a children's song. Nothing spookier than that, eh F.E.AR. franchise? Better than being soundtracked by inappropriately shouty rock music, anyway. We've seen a fair bit of Dead Space 2 already, and I think it's fair to say that it looks a good deal more ambitious than the original. Actually, with the infested city and so forth, I am getting a bit of a Bioshock vibe from the environments, but maybe that's just me. Also, I'm afraid I am one of those freaks who was able to put up with the interface wonkiness on PC and still rather enjoy the game, so I am certainly looking forward to this hitting on the 25th of January.
