    Its not DS:E, it is the one about the guy going up the haunted mountain ("Cursed Mountain" or something its called)

    They wouldn't have had kids playing Dead Space: Extraction anyways, the first one was an 18s. DSE is supposed to be pretty good from the previews it has been getting though

    Cursed Mountain is indeed the game I was looking for but I think Dead Space: Extraction will be bought aswell

    It is Wii only (as sweetie says, it is on rails). Its is a prequel to the first game, I think a true sequel is planned which will probably be multi-format.

    As much as I love Dead Space, it sounds terrible if its on rails! It would be excellent to see a proper multi-platform prequel game, because the shorts they brought out before its launch were fantastic!

    That being said, a sequel would be equally excellent.

    Dead Space Extraction looks pretty good actually and, according to reports, plays pretty good too.
    The only way a game that visually demanding was going to the Wii was as an on rails shooter but, apparently, there is enough interaction to keep you interested.
    Not all onrails shooters are muck, certainly the House of the Dead pack, its sequel House of the Dead Overkill are all pretty damn good, so i'm looking forward to Dead Space Extraction, certainly the scope for set pieces could make it something special.
