    As far as backstory goes, i'd definately recomend this. It fills in a lot and has some really cool intersections with the first one. as far as the gameplay goes... meh. its really short and not very fun. but if you think of this as a slightly interactive dead space movie, then you'll like it. i bought it just to have the whole collection when dead space 2 comes out.

    This game isin't the best railshooter, but it's still good enough. The game focuses more on story and cinematic experience than any other same genre game I have played.

The graphics are good for Wii game, but the immersion of being one of the characters is broken all the time, which is a shame. For example, there are numerous times, where as small thing as seeing your hands when you're climbing something, could have helped with keeping the immersion. Weapons don't also feel powerful like when using arcade pistols, though Wiimote could be blamed about it. This game is pretty long for a railway shooter, but it's still pretty short compared to other games (4-5 hours). If you can find this game very cheap, buy and play it with your friend. There isin't anything scary in this game anyway.… Expand

    I think I'm being generous giving this game a 5 out of 10. I hated the on rail experience. I felt like all I was doing was pressing buttons at random. Not fun for me at all and definitely not scary like the 1st dead space. I will be selling this game back tomorrow! I played it for maybe 20 minutes and just could not get into it.

    More horror movie simulator than game, but a brilliant, tense and exciting experience still. [Dec 2009, p.62]

    Drop-in local multiplayer, though a decent laugh on higher difficulty settings, can’t quite save Dead Space: Extraction from solid rental status.

    Like Dead Space before it, this one’s a class act, through and through. Heed the censor's warning though... this is no kiddies' title.
