For those who are currently in recovery after Isaac Clarke’s first adventure might consider moving on to the next article.  The Necromorphs aren’t finished yet.  Of course they’re not.  Is it humanly possible to rid the planet of a symbiotic organism that multiplies a million times faster than the cockroach. At least Isaac has been tapped to carry the small burden of mankind’s extinction on his shoulder in Dead Space 2.  EA has promised to do a full unveiling at E3. The details swirling around are sparse, but here is what we know so far, courtesy of  The Dead Space Wiki;

Dead Space 2 takes place three years after the events of Dead Space. Isaac will be arriving on The Sprawl, a civillian space station from the remains of Saturn’s moon Titan, where the Necromorph outbreak begins. It is stated that Isaac will be able to witness the panic that overtakes the station from the start, which will apparently result in the game having more Necromorphs as the game progresses.

Dead Space 2 will be the first game in the Dead Space series to have an online multiplayer component.^[1]

The Zero Gravity feature has been tweaked, allowing the player to control the direction of their drifting through space and firing their weapons at the same time.

Isaac will speak in Dead Space 2, and will also be able to display a greater range of emotion
