Hands-on: Returning to necromorph hell in Dead Space 2
The first Dead Space was one scary game. Very scary. In fact it was so scary, we left some lights on in the house the first couple of nights after playing it.

Hands-on shows Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood’s multiplayer is fun, if unfinished
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood was impossible to miss at PAX Prime last weekend, what with it’s massive display and flashy booth.
