This is one of those things they likely can’t add to the game until its sequel, but I’m on a roll so I’d very much like to continue rafting down this babbling brook of disapproval to the shallow Necromorph selection.

So if you’ve played the game’s multiplayer but feel it didn’t quite reach its potential, read on so we can gather by the burning pile of corpses, maybe roast a few marshmallows, and discuss what we’d like to see added or changed in Dead Space 2’s multiplayer. But there are a few ideas that are minor refinements at best, perfect for a patch (or DLC) down the road. Some of the items in my wish list might not be possible for Dead Space 2, we might have to be patient and wait to see what’s fixed and added in the all but confirmed third installment. Now that the game’s been out for awhile and most of us have had the chance to sink some time into its multiplayer offering, it’s actually pretty damn good. One of the things that made this game great is Visceral Games’ willingness to take risks, and they risked a serious backlash from fans of the series when a multiplayer component was announced for the game. It’s relentlessly scary, twisted, fun, immersive and easily this year’s first contender for game of the year. Dead Space 2’s single-player is spectacular, there’s honestly little I can say I’d like tweaked or changed about it overall.
