WORLD'S FIRST DEAD SPACE 2 REVIEW IS IN

With the title being a little under a month away, the world's very first Dead Space 2 review has officially gone live. Find out the first verdict on the upcoming game after the break.

With there being only a little under a month left until Dead Space 2 officially hits store shelves, it was only a matter of time before reviews started to pour in all over the net.  The first title was an absolute gem, and Visceral Studios set out to capture the same emotion they delivered on the first and do nothing but improve it.

If the very first review by the Official Xbox Magazine is anything to go by, then Visceral Studios has done just that.  With Dead Space 2 dawning the cover for February's issue of the magazine, the staff at OXM have given the title a 9.5 overall score.

While we don't want to give away too many of the details, the review states the title is filled with tons of horror and surprises, along with it being very lengthy.  What do you think about the very first review for Dead Space 2?  Are you planning on picking it up next month?

Mario Kart 3DS is the most wanted 3DS game of 2011

Of the 70+ games that have been confirmed for 3DS, readers of Official Nintendo Magazine have picked out Mario Kart 3DS as the game that they're most looking forward to.


Mario Kart 3DS came out on top in a poll of ONM readers, ahead of Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time 3D and Paper Mario.

Commenting on their reader's choice, ONM said "while some prefer the jostling and friendly banter that comes when four players crowd around the telly, others prefer the online racing of Mario Kart DS.

"The fact that it's a new game as opposed to a remake may have won it more votes than Ocarina Of Time but it's hard to argue that it doesn't deserve it. It's always exciting to see what Nintendo will do next with Mario Kart and we can report that the 3D effects are perfectly suited to this fantastic racing series. This will be the essential online 3DS game."
