15 Problems Only Dead Space Fans Will Understand

9. Hard Core Mode Making You Paranoid

The brave few who have the stones to take on Dead Space 2's Hard Core mode are in for a mentally debilitating experience. With so many instant deaths lurking around each corner - each poised to set you back five to ten hours - you are understandably going to become more than a little paranoid. You'll begin crawling at a snail's pace in anticipation of Exploders, Cysts, and worst of all, the dreaded Eye Needle and Ubermorph room. Cornered by a group of undead kids? Dead. Hit by a broken door? Gibbed. Accidentally shoot out the glass window on a space station? You died, kiddo. Keep that in mind the next time you see an air vent or hear a strange noise.

Ken was born in 1994, and before the turn of the century, he was already a gamer for life, starting with Pokémon Blue Version. He has a passion for storytelling, especially in the gaming medium. Growing up on a healthy diet of JRPGs and point and click adventure games, young Kenny grew up playing Nintendo and Sony consoles, before becoming a snobby member of the PC Master Race. Nowadays, he resides in a time warp, refusing to believe the nineties ended as he fills up his Steam library with old point and clicks and cRPGs.
