13 Terrible Levels In Otherwise Awesome Video Games

8. Asteroid Shooting - Dead Space

The original Dead Space was a unique marvel of uneasy sci-fi suspense...that is briefly upended when you're forced to drop everything you've learned up to this point and just shoot asteroids with a giant gun turret.

Though the mechanics of the sequence aren't remotely complex, it's surprisingly difficult keeping the ship in tact, and this one no doubt took most players more than a few tries to figure out.

Considering how well the game was doing up to this point, this just felt like needless padding, and a misguided attempt to change-up the gameplay.

Pro-tip: if you ever play this section again on PC, turn the mouse sensitivity up to gain a huge advantage.
