The game takes place three years after the original on the appropriately named Sprawl - a cityscape locale on Titan, a moon of Saturn. In that time, Visceral Games has been busy ensuring that the few criticisms levelled against the first game have been addressed in a sequel that sees protagonist Isaac Clarke fighting against external aggressors and internal demons.
While the first game seemed to come out of nowhere and leave us all cowering with fear, the sequel has been hotly anticipated and finally makes its way onto the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC a little over two years later. It may not have been the most original of titles, but it's fair to say that its claustrophobic atmosphere, captivating storyline and excellent, limb-slicing combat made it one of the standout games of the year and a welcome addition to the survival horror genre. The original Dead Space was something of a surprise hit when it was released in time for Halloween in 2008.
