   Mark! Mark! Mark!

   Can you confirm that you got my details for the Dead Space 2 competition? I sent them… about a week ago, I guess.

   I’m so excited that as soon as the Jets beat those asshat-Steelers (as in they are asshats… not that they steal hats made of ass), I’m gonna play through Dead Space again.

      I loved ME2, but it’s gotta be Dead Space 2… right? 😛

      Ah yes, Necromorphs. The allegedly alien life-form that re-purposes organic matter. We have dismissed that claim.

      I’d go with DS2 first just because it’s shorter. Nothing worse than rushing through a long game just because there’s another game you’re excited to play.

      Buy ME2 – you can easily sink 25-30 hours per run through on it. By that stage (hopefully) the price of Dead Space 2 will have dropped a tad, then you can pick that up and scare the bejeebus out of yourself 🙂

         I have both pre-ordered so I’ll pick up both on day 1 anyway.

   That face always makes me chuckle 😀

   If I wasn’t scared of my own shadow, I’d give Dead Space 2 a go. Alas.

      If you want real horror. Check out Agent York smiling in Deadly Premonition!

   Any word on broken street dates in Melbourne before the 27th for Mass Effect 2? I wanted to make use of the time off work on Australia Day to get started.

   I am only just on ME2 on 360 now. I can’t believe I let this game slip by without noticing. Mass Effect is absolutely amazing – it is like a story, almost booklike but super interesting.

   Although, I am not quite happy with the decisions I made in #1…should I replay number one (search on net where possible) to change the decision I made at the end of the game and perhaps team different teammates knowing the outcome?

   In another ridiculous development, the digital release of Mass Effect 2 on the PSN has been delayed to Friday to coincide with the release of the disc in stores; thus negating the advantage o digital releases, which should not be subject to natural disasters or any other event that effects freight. Stupid decisions FTW!
