Visceral’s Dead Space was a match made in survival horror heaven. Combining elements of John Carpenter’s The Thing and Paul WS Anderson’s Event Horizon, and putting it all into a video game made for some truly entertaining (and horrifying) moments for PS3 and Xbox 360 fans. It was no surprise that EA and Visceral got right to work on the sequel after Dead Space‘s critical acclaim. The resulting Dead Space 2 not only gave us more horror, but ultimately ended up as one of the scariest titles of the generation.
