So I realised the other day just how many pieces of plastic gaming paraphernalia I have scattered about my house.

I would like to begin by saying yes, I know this game isn’t a new ones, but I only recently decided it was time to give it a try. There are very few games any more which make me yelp in startled wonderment, let alone jump out of my chair. Dead Space managed both of these within the first 30 minutes of playtime. Sadly, it didn’t last very long. As a survival horror third-person shooter video game (what?), it did it’s job okay… for most people. However, being desensitized from …
