Gameplay
Dead Space 2 is an over-the-shoulder, third-person shooter. Drawing inspiration from games like Resident Evil 4, the player is given ample view of frontal space. This perspective does not allow the player to see what's behind them. We all know that survival horror is about not knowing what's around the next corner or what will be coming after you, therefore, it forces players to look back over their shoulder continuously in order to stay safe.
There are various ways to take down enemies in Dead Space 2, ranging from a lethal arsenal to basic attacks. Unique to the game is the ability to stomp fallen, still-breathing enemies as well as severing the limbs from their bodies. Dead Space 2 is all about conserving ammunition. When lacking ammo, however, the player can also incorporate unconventional weapons like pipes and boxes in order to defeat the enemy.
