Dead Space
Johnny C:
they made him so frowny
KvP:
So advance word from the Game Informer piece is thus:
- Dead Space 2 will take place on "Sprawl", a big facility orbiting Saturn. Environments will be more wide-open.
- Isaac Clarke is back and he has a voice now that he uses to speak to other characters.
- Javelin Gun.
- Increased focus on action, de-emphasis of horror aspects, more feeling of "power". Basically going from Alien to Predator.
- Online multiplayer. Reference to dismembering your friends, so probably competitive. Co-op would be nice though.
So I'm dialing down my anticipation. I liked Dead Space as a horror game (there are very few horror games out there as it is) but it underperformed, sales-wise, so I'm expecting that they'll be pulling a Resident Evil 5 with it.

I am really glad that they are filling the much-needed niche market for gamers who want games exactly like every other game.

That's incredibly dissapointing. I mean, if they simply polish the gameplay up I'll still enjoy it but shit.
Storm Rider:
That's not really what I heard. Admittedly, I haven't seen the article yet, but according to the developers they still consider it a horror game, even though they're trying to make the weaponry feel more powerful. In fact, they imply that the events of the first game have made Isaac unstable, and that hallucinations might play an Eternal Darkness-style role in the gameplay.
Here's the article where I read all of this. Read it for yourself and draw your own conclusions before just writing it off entirely.
