I'm not really feeling it so far, but that might be because I've got the PC version and the controls just feel wrong.
I don't suppose it supports the Xbox 360 controller ?
Yeah the link I posted above was saying something about the controls in the PC version.
"
For all our hardcore PC audience, that means everyone of you, we recently got hands on with an early copy of EA’s
Dead Space for the PC. Good news? It’s still Dead Space!
Bad news? The controls are 2nd to the worst controls we’ve seen ever since Path of Neo came to the PC platforms. The smoothness compared to consoles is just not there, and from what we can tell it doesn’t seem like a patch can fix most of the issues. Inventory stack access becomes frustrating when fighting with monsters and aiming for on-the-fly changes. The controls just aren’t smooth. When contacting EA Redwood Shores regarding these issues:
Dead Space for PC is an equivalent experience to that on consoles. The controls are different and customizable, but we feel it’s in the best ability for the players to match what the console experience is like.
It’s ironic that it needs to be argued that it
matches the console experience from the controls in EA’s eyes. The fact isn’t a matter of customization as much as it’s just not feasible to do most of the mapped controls on the keyboard and still maintain a fluid transition between interface and gameplay. If you have a console, go with the console version of Dead Space. The PC one is just not the same thing. If you’re tight on $20 extra for the console version, rent it and then settle for the PC one after. It’s such a shame."
And it is a shame because the game is one of the best I've played in a very long time.
