The demo is finally out. Graphics have improved and gameplay is more smooth and fluidlike. The necromorphs will drop after a few shots only to get up again when you get close. Blood and sfx are more gory too.

New video preview by gamespot.com. I won't watch it seeing as the game comes out in 10 days but I thought I'd post it up anyway for everyone else who's interested...

Yeah came out today. Mine arrived yesterday... thanks ebgames :)

Basically the same as the 1st game just the usual changes - tweaked graphics, new bad guys and weapons. that being said, gameplay feels different (not so much claustrophobic as before) and multiplayer is really cool. The story is also a lot more indepth compared to the first one.

I'm hoping lot's of people play multiplayer. It's more fun than I thought it would have been.

If anyone else gets the game let me know. The more the merrier.

One team is monsters, the other is humans.

The humans need to complete an objective and the monsters need to stop them. You then switch sides after each round.

The human side can only die once but require more hits to kill. Monsters get killed easily but can respawn by choosing a respawn point within the map. The objectives vary as well. The game requires a lot of teamwork.

As you progress and gain higher levels/rank, you can upgrade your guns and such (if you're human) or upgrade your killing abilities and skills (if you're necromorph).

I think there may be some youtube videos showing off the multiplayer if you wanna check it out before you spend the $$$ buying the game.

Finally finished the game. All I have to say is the ending is MUCH better than the first one.

Probably one of the better aspects of the game is that cut-scenes don't take up much time at all... You spend more time playing than watching while still getting a good idea of the story. There were a few times when I didn't even realise the cut-scenes were interactive I ended up dying.........

Unlike the first game, Dead Space 2 has 15 chapters, instead of 12.

Now to finish it on Hardcore - each time you die, you restart back at your last save, AND you only get three saves total.

New DLC for Dead Space 2.

Unlike the COD games, where you pay $15-$20 for a few maps, this DLC is under $10 and features new campaign, new characters, new voice acting and so on.

And, according to gamespot, it's actually well worth getting it.

I found it a lot easier than the first game.

My main method of attack is wait for the necros to get close, then blow them apart with the force gun. Use the pulse rifle to take care of the pack (kids with claws).

The dlc is pretty good too.

I am up to chapter 13 now. Finding it abit difficult now. Swarms of non-stop necromorphs.

Call me oldschool but my favourite weapon is the Plasma cutter. I find it cuts their limbs off easiest.

Dead space 1 - plasma cutter all the way. Using only this gun i had clocked it on impossible mode.

Dead space 2 - went zealot mode as soon as i bought the game - using the two guns mentioned above. A tip would be to keep the force gun equipped. This way if anything jumps in front of you, blast it away to give yourself time to quickly assess the situation and switch to your preferred weapon. also works well clearing the area against multiple enemies. Remember to wait for them to get really close. Generally one shot will blow them apart.

Hardcore mode is next. I need to find the time. Also I'll end up smashing everything if I died and had to restart three chapters back.

      The alloy coolant reservoir has a sight glass, so as long as I can see coolant in the sight glass it's GTG, as for PS, it isn't anything catastrophic if it gets low, and as it hasn't lost a drop since I have owned the car I cannot see it being an issue, even after putting the "big block" 2.5 in....LOL The only time it gets slightly messy is at oil changes, as the oil filter sits above the frame, and I need to use a plastic bottle with its bottom cut off to catch the flow when loosening the filter

      Single Turbo Conversion On R32 GTR.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Good on you for taking on the job, but it is a big one. Even if you have bolt on manifold and turbo, you will need: Post throttle pressure source to boost controller to wastegate (and FPR, and ECU/MAP sensor) Pre throttle pressure source to top of BOV(s) Oil feed - you can take that from the standard port in the middle of the block Oil return to block under the turbo - this is much trickier than it seems to route a decent/wide pipe past the manifold. You really can't use rubber hose because it is way too hot there, and also the oil out of the turbo core is a bit frothy so it needs to have a decent diameter Water feed - you can take that from the standard port in the rear of the block. Water return - mine runs to a T into the heater box return, just make sure you don't create a high point making bleeding hard. All of those lines should use 200 series style teflon braided hose with heat shielding because everything needs to be routed past the manifold. Also a turbo beanie is a really good idea to minimise the chance of the car catching fire (under bonnet lining in particular) You also need to decide a cam cover breathing solution as well, will you vent externally via a catch can (probably illegal) or return to the intake (plumbing required and can oil up everything over time) Keep in mind the intake and exhaust piping in the engine bay will be custom so you either need to be able to fab ally and steel or have someone you can get a car that isn't running to. Get the wideband fitting welded into the dump pipe at the same time. Also, just my opinion, a screamer pipe attracts attention and doesn't add power, I'd plumb it back if you want to be allowed to keep the car on the road. BTW do you know anything about how healthy the motor is, and what power you are targeting? Doubling or tripling the factory power on an unknown motor is a little risky. Also fuel system will need some attention (pumps, high current hanger, direct power and earth feed, injectors etc)
