Truly proving that nothing is entirely idiot-proof when a famously greedy gaming company gets involved. I didn’t know that EA was in charge of the franchise therefore, I couldn’t possibly predict the idiotic turn the developers would take in the third iteration of the franchise.
However, my little teenage mind was not as into gaming culture as I am now. So, with two good titles under the belt, composed of brilliant level design, atmospheric tension, and decent enough gameplay mechanics, I honestly thought this franchise could do no wrong, and the developers had hit on an idiot-proof framework. So, after a lengthy wait, I got my hands on the second iteration of the series, and boy, did it impress. Of course, when I managed to complete the first game in this series, I was incredibly hungry for more. Through his eyes, I managed to find the strength to keep my own open as we explored the bowels of his ship together, suffering all the way through. One of my favorite games I found for this very purpose was the very first Dead Space game, starring our loveable protagonist, systems engineer Isaac Clarke. A game that truly took me out of my comfort zone and increased my heart rate.
