Dead Space 2: Severed releasing March 1, video released

EA and Visceral announced a date for the Dead Space 2 digital download pack Severed, today.

Releasing on March 1 on XBL and PSN (UK PSN users get it March 2), Dead Space 2: Severed extends the game’s story with the addition of two stand-alone single-player chapters, telling the story of Gabe Weller

Here’s his story: “As a security officer, Weller comes equipped with a one-of-a-kind security suit and an upgraded, more powerful Pulse Rifle that will help him unleash his own blood-curdling adventure across the Sprawl. Lurking behind every corner is another bloodthirsty monster but the big surprise for Weller (and fans) is the return of the Twitcher, a grotesque enemy who first appeared in the original Dead Space game.”

The DLC suits and weapons are rip-offs, they’re just edited textures (which you can do for free in the PC version) and stat tweaks. No way is that worth a fiver.

1:rippoffs? they are cheap, not to say a fucking bargain compared to other cheats.
There are custom cheats for ie counterstrike that ran u a 3 digit amount.
And dobnt argue. These are things that gain u an unfair advantage compared to other, regular, players. The very definition of a cheat, these are CHEATS. Perioud. Things we did with a hex editor some 15 years ago when we were to bad to beat a game regularly. Back when some games where so fucking ridicoulusly hard, a 10yo couldnt beat them. noone convinces me that dead space is to hard to beat. The game is a walk in the park on easy.

whoever is responsible for this is an asshole.

I haven’t played extraction yet so i don’t know what happened to these guys.
I will check Extraction out ASAP and will check Severed when it’s out.
