Dead Space Is Awesome!!

Bit odd that it doesn't work well with mouse & keyboard, sounds like a half-assed console port but I'll reserve judgement til I see the finished article. I don't understand how people can play FPS games on a console. :o

By using the joypad :D

Looks great to me. Too many games out at the moment for me. I'll put this one on my christmas list I think
 
I'm torn, i've always preferred survival horrors on consoles due to:

Nice big 32" screen hooked up to surround sound (can't easily do this with my PC)
Controller is harder to aim with so everything feels a bit more... 'pressured'
Typically survival horrors come out on consoles first

Problem is, its cheaper on the PC and the release dates are identical. Hmm, which to buy
 
I dont see any Hovis?

PC all the way I have mine hooked up to a 40" HDTV and Dead Space looks pretty good on it. Just get a DVI to HDMI cable and wireless 360 pad for your PC then you are good to go and can even use it for FPS games via xpadder which allows you to map any PC gamepad to keyboard/mouse commands. Kicking it back on the sofa playing PC games on a giant HDTV is about as good as it gets for gaming:D
 
nice, i'll try to pick it up tomorrow from the shops. i've been craving for a good survival horror game for a long time.

As i said though, i can't really hook my PC up to my tele, not without moving it at least. So i have a choice of hunched over in front of my 20" monitor, or slouched on the sofa with a wireless PS3 controller. For comfort factor i know which one is more appealing.
 
It's good that someone else has mentioned this game! It looks pretty good, although would have been better if it was first-person. Nevertheless, I will be purchasing said game and hooking it up to a 50inch plasma for some serious brown trouser action. ;)

There was an issue with mouse lag but seems like there are possible fixes on the web already for this.
