Contest: Get Dismembered in Dead Space 2



If you played Dead Space (and shame on you if you did not), then you will know that you used your weapons to dismember the enemies.  Well Visceral Games have came up with a great contest to give fans a chance to create content for Dead Space 2.  They want to hear your ideas on how you’d like to see Isaac dismember the necromorphs and not only will the winner see their move in the game but the winner will be scanned into the game itself to be brutally torn apart.

So what are you waiting for? Get your creative juices flowing and I look forward to watching a necromorph rip you to bits.

Press release:

Brian here, with the Dead Space 2 team at Visceral Games (a division of EA). Wanted to tell you about an interesting contest campaign we’ve launched that allows our fans to create content for the actual game!

At 10 am EST this morning we launched the “Get Dismembered in Dead Space 2″ contest, which basically lets fans think up the coolest way for the game’s main character Isaac Clarke to rip apart a necromorph (the evil baddies in the game). The contest is live at this URL: http://www.deadspacegame.com/contest

Dead Space 2 is the sequel to Dead Space, a third-person shooter game that features Isaac Clarke as an engineer who battles an alien threat known as “Necromorphs”.

The community will vote for a winner among ten finalists, who will  then have his or her move programmed into the game. Also, his face &  body will be programmed into the game to be torn apart by a  necromorph. Nine runners-up will get their names in the game.

To enter, all fans have to do is come up with some creative way for  a Isaac to rip apart a Necromorph. Entries can be text, audio, or  video through the “contest” tab on The Dead Space 2 Facebook  page, which went just went live this morning at 10 am EST. The entry period will last until March 26.

    The necromorph grabs Isaac and is trying to kill him but he throws him to the side bends it arm straight breaks it off and stabs it with it’s own arm. Hope u like the idea.

    The necromorph grabs Isaac and is trying to kill him but he throws him to the side bends it arm straight breaks it off by pushing it’s elbow in the opposite direction and continually stabs it with it’s own arm. Hope u like the idea.

    I think it would be neat if durring a scuffle with one of the necromorphs Issac forcefully holds back one of the creatures limbs and drives the other into its side, then (Tapping X) plunges the other limb into the monsters head, then turns around to walk away as the body falls to the ground.

    isaac is in a grapple with the necromorph and its swinging its arms at isaac and hes grabbing the slashers arms then he pauses for a second then bam!!! headbutts the necromorph in the face but the the necromorph is on his knees so isaac puts his hands on each side of his head and pushes his hands together crushing the necromorphs head in. thats my idea.

    another idea is isaac is in the grapple with the slasher and isaac pushes the slasher away but the slasher tries t spear isaac but isaac pushes the slashers head down so now the slashers on the ground getting up but isaac hits it in the back with whatever gun hes holding so the slasher on the ground now and i dont care fans can decide either isaac steps on his head on he grabs its head and continuesly bashes its head onto the ground until it is unable to move
