In an interview withGamezone, Dead Space’sart director, Ian Milham, spoke briefly about what influenced the horror aspects of the game. Instead of looking at games likeSilent HillorResident Evil, the team behindDead Spacedecided to draw on real world influences. Apparently, they then turned those real life influences into space monsters. The key I think was to not look at other games and movies too much, but instead look at real life. For horror, we thought about what types of things scared us, what made us uncomfortable, and we integrated those real-world influences into the game....

Finding Nemo… Delicious Sushi’s delicious, it’s just too bad we love it so much that it’s driving the depletion of ocean habitats. However, that’s largely because the industry relies on non-selective fishing. Spearfishing might not get us the quantity we crave, but it’s much more sustainable. So good onDave the Diverfor being environmentally conscious. The marriage of spearfishing and restaurant management is a tantalizing mix I didn’t know I wanted. Now I just have to deal with the constant cravings....

Modders have alleviated this problem since, and NoVR mod, in particular, stands out as a highlight with its Summer update.
