After receiving a great port of RE4, the Wii has gotten nothing but on-rails shooters from the series, with the official reason being that this genre was easier for the casual audience to get into. How could a rail shooter ever be as scary as the first game? Would it be campy like The House of the Dead? Would the presentation live up to the high production values established by Isaac Clarke’s nightmarish journey through the USG Ishimura? I’m a big fan of the original Dead Space but I assumed that EA was following the lead of another horror series, Resident Evil. When word first got out that Dead Space Extraction, the Wii-exclusive prequel to last year’s survival horror hit, was going to be an on-rails shooter instead of a third person game, I admit to being pretty disappointed.
