Five severed limbs<\/em><\/p>\n

Four stasis modules<\/em><\/p>\n

Three plasma cutter upgrades<\/em><\/p>\n

Two things that might be bleeding babies<\/em><\/p>\n

And an insidious, self-interested corporate agenda in a pear tree<\/em><\/p>\n

As if Christmas wasn’t already a terrifying enough prospect, EA’s just announced they’ll be deploying a Dead Space 2 demo on Xbox LIVE and the PSN North America on 21 December, and the PSN Europe the next day.<\/p>\n

“The holidays are a great time to enjoy all forms of entertainment, and we can’t wait to give horror and action adventure gamers a taste of what awaits them in Dead Space 2,” says Dead Space franchise executive producer Steve Papoutsis. “Releasing the demo five weeks before launch will not only re-connect players with our hero Isaac Clarke, but will also give them the opportunity to experience firsthand various jaw-dropping scenarios. It’s gonna be awesome.”<\/p>\n

The single-player demo is set in the game’s Church of Unitology, where the most unlucky engineer in the universe must square off against Necromorph antagonists with a bunch of cool stuff, including a javelin gun. It’s like a clever metaphor for Christmas lunch or something.<\/p>\n
