New Dead Space video looks pretty hot


This new gameplay video for this year's Halloween release, Dead Space, shows some of the game's combat and exploration. Frankly, it looks pretty good, but we don't feel particularly scared. From the look of things the protagonist is quite well armed, so monsters are only an inconvenience, and not a threat. Hopefully the story and will offer a few scares, instead.

Things that impressed us in this video include the wall-jumping, which allows you to walk on seemingly any surface you can see. We also appreciate the sci-fi elements that pop up. The way the HUD elements pop up in mid-air, leaving the screen uncluttered is quite stylish. Check out the video above and you, like us, could soon be looking forward to Halloween for reasons other than dressing up like a prat.
