I bought it while still in Alpha, so it may not be "lately"; but I figured it deserved a mention

I've been playing it way too much, to be honest; right now I'm waiting for "true" mod-support, as I almost always mod my PC-games

I've been using a wide variety of mods already, but since Notch keep updating the game so frequently I need to update my mods along

I figured it was best to buy it in Alpha, so that I'd get all future versions for free =)

the endless possibilites will keep this game running long after it's due ^^

I loved Dead Space 2, however Its more of the first one (Which I utterly loved). Its one of the best games I have played in a while. I am quite picky with games though. If you are up for it, play the first one before the second, however you dont really need to play the first one to understand the second. There is a nice wrap up video that you can play, that sums up the first Dead Space.

Definitely. It is one of my favourite games of recent times - especially when playing with friends. Totally worth owning.

That reminds me: I still need to play through the latest DLC...
