Dead Space 2 is a downgrade from the first game in every regard except in length. First Dead Space was scary, pure horror, but this is mainly just a shooter with very little horror. Main character was easy to like in the first game, but here he has gained an ability to speak and story takes a major blow when you hear what he has to say. Isaac Clarke is a bit of asshole, whiny manbaby who ruins your immersion. Game is also a bit too long.
