Unskippable: Dead Space 2

[tehweave]

Really? The opening of this game has a guy turn into a... Thing... Right in front of you and then you have to run past a whole bunch of... Things... Unarmed... Without being killed? Forget this.

Also, funny episode.

 

[Unhappy Crow]

This episode would make a good "What if..." Like "What if Graham and Paul made it through the QTE?"

Also I agree with the headbutting scene. Those hurt, especially at something that looks pointy.

 

[darthricardo]

I like thinking that's the entire story, right there. Isaac escapes from the hospital, runs for about a minute, then gets horribly killed because SERIOUSLY HE'S IN A STRAIT JACKET SURROUNDED BY DOZENS OF MONSTERS.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

So what would that be the 8th time you died?

 

[leviadragon99]

Have to say, I agree with the reason for quitting, that QTE marker seemed to be half-hidden by Issac's body and the angle of the view for most of the time it was on the screen, and I see now why Yahtzee was irritated by the immediatre lack of subtlety of that transformation right in front of the player.

at the end of the 'therapy' session, Isaac was clearly under the effect of the scarecrow's drug, from Batman Begins

 

[ProjectTrinity]

And no one ate dinner that night. =<

(Great show, guys. It's always great knowing that you two are always one step a head in the joke department. :"3)

 

[magicmonkeybars]

Wow, that was a pretty dark ending.

 

[Dr. Pepper Unlimited]

That was the quickest quick time event ever. I didn't even see the promp.

 

[samsonguy920]

Two rage quits in a row. This is bad voodoo.

 

[MonkeyPunch]

Seemed short - but had many funny moments.
Good show.

 

[Ulquiorra4sama]

I always said Dead Space was pretty much bull shit. Largely because i didn't find the game very scary. I pretty much had the same impression as Graham through the entire game.
Made for some funny jokes though.

Isaac Clarke is... Space Houdini!

 

[dmcc85]

what do you mean "quick-time-event"?
wasn't that supposed to happen?

 

[Biodeamon]

opening of deadspace summed in 30 seconds:
RUN *****!
NOW PRESS A REPEADETLY!

the first time i did that i ran straight into a impassible necromorph....
the second time i survived the quicktime event only to be instant KO'd when you first get the stasis gun and you have to shoot the running necromorph...

dammit.

I thought Yahtzee was overreacting when he said that he first thing that happened was that a demon tore his own face of, but nope, that was really what happenned.

Heh, I know, right? When I saw that review, I went to youtube to check it out and it was every bit as ridiculous as he made it out to be. It was like his skin was made out of clay, and then after he transformed he starts screaming at the player as if to say "Be scared! Be scared, you FUCKER!!!" Made me laugh quite a bit.

 

[Zakarath]

Seriously, FUCK QTEs. I have no respect for any game with them. (Possible exception is ME2, but only because those QTEs weren't bullshit and didn't kill you.)

An that one is probably the most BS one I've ever seen. Seriously? It's got a hard-to-read static-y effect on it AND it spends half its time off the screen? FUCK. THAT.

 

[Panzervaughn]

Huh, i was kind of expecting an Age Gate on this one =D
After all, we wouldn't want any mothers to see this.

 

[SensibleCrout]

Graham seems to have lost his A button pressing skill.

 

[Random Wanderer]

I couldn't even make out what that prompt wanted you to DO. I sure hope it was easier to read on a full-sized screen.

Oddly enough, now I want to buy this game just to see what's supposed to happen next.
