More on Dead Space

So I had a friend come over yesterday to help me out with Dead Space. To be more specific, more like a cheerer. Though he really didnt do any cheering, as he was more focused on building his SD Sinanju while listening to me cuss at the necromorphs, hoping that somehow it’ll inflict damage to them and my dog flirting and cuddling with him. My friend told me that there’s really nothing to be afraid of, that I should be more afraid of the living.

Uhmm… I am running for dear life from reanimated DEAD people turned monsters, right?

After some running, needless hiding and procrastinating, I managed to man up and faced these ugly sons of alienshit. It was then, we realized that I’m actually a good shot. I guess all that sniping from Mass Effect finally paid off. I was also getting less paranoid over the shitscares, but I was still paranoid of the sounds and the dark. What add more insult to this, is that I’m already using a visual walkthrough to ease my suffering, but it seems to do little of what I hoped for it to do.

After clearing 1 stage, I passed the controller to my friend. He was fast, but he keeps missing some items, and save points so I had to rant about that too. While he did almost 80% of stage 3, I managed to hold my own elegantly against 5 slashers and a leaper in a cramped room with no damage at all. But in real life, the fibers on my arms were tinglling in fear and adrenaline rush. I hate that feeling.

We managed to finish this round really fast, with me still occasionally screaming and cussing and a little flinching.

Though, later that night, I woke up from weird dreams of being chased by necromorphs in a underground train station and I was fending off my own with a chainsaw…Too much Dead Space, I guess….

Dead Space Cooking

Hurrrrr…. Dead Space. They said you were epic. They were right.

An epic winner in making me jump and paranoid with each sound I hear and room I enter.

I’ve never felt so cowardly to a game before! I’ve faced my F.E.A.R and dealt with swarms of headcrabs zombies while running on Half Life, ran for dear life from Husks and Scions on Mass Effect but never have I felt so chicken about a game with reanimated macabre corpses. Hmmm, maybe my previous games are a little bit different from Dead Space, but still, the fact that I’m too scared to play it doesnt change one bit.

I’m so into guro and gory mangas and animes. I grew up with Genocyber, Guyver and was in loved with the first movie of Ghost in the Shell. I have a thing for scary and gory movies, so long as I dont hear the sfx. I’m into really disgusting things like pressure ulcers and got hungry while watching a live brain surgery because I thought the flesh smelled like fish being grilled.

So what is so wrong with me?

I managed to finish 1 chapter of Dead Space earlier. I guess I can only play “fine” during daytime. As soon as it got a little dark, I “lost” interest in playing. However, it sparked an interest in me, so I’ve been doing some in depth research about it, and currently watching Dead Space: Downfall, it’s animated movie counterpart.

Speaking of movies, Halo had a series of OAVs, Dead Space had Downfall, how come my Mass Effect have no movie to its name? Considering how awesome this trilogy (ME 3 is coming out next year! Already set my dibs on the collector’s item piece :3 ), how come it has yet to gain an animated or much better a live action movie? ;__;

On a completely, but maybe related matter, I’m thinking of posting some Cooking tutorials to prove that I do cook, and they’re edible and tasty. People at work and sometimes, friends would often doubt my cooking prowess and would often insist that it’s my mom’s cooking, not mine.

Tch.

Sorry, I dont entirely fall into the useless category.
