undue butt brutality is not a criminal offense
Dead Space (PC)

- Turn off Vertical Sync
- Get used to the camera. The way it is zoomed in on Isaac creates a sense of claustrophobia. I both appreciated it and hated it.
- The last boss is a joke. Dodge a tentacle, dodge a missile, shoot at the same weak spots, wait for the tentacle to attack again, repeat until death scene.
- The death scenes are fun and gory. Dying in Dead Space is actually fun.

Deus Ex

- You will reinstall it at least once or twice a year.
- The silenced pistol is probably the best weapon in the game.

Deus Ex: Invisible War

- The levels are divided into small parts which is 1/2 of a typical Half Life 2 map. This is a major drawback as the loading times are horribly long. Be sure to drink a lot of alcohol-free beer so you can take a wee while entering a new door. That way, the time is not all wasted.

I got Operation Flashpoint years ago but the fiddliness of the controls put me off, is there a way to set it to have the usual fixed mouselook instead of that floaty thing it does? What else should I know about it? It came with both the expansions too.

Enjoy it. In terms of immersion, this game is a gem. I don't know about the mouse thingy, but the "floaty thing" is part of the game.

- Cover
- Scout for enemies
- Be careful
- Use you binoculars (The only game where I've used binoculars, except Crysis.)
- Protect your teammates

This is a game that rewards immersion. Never played the expansions.
