Dead Space/Chapter 1: New Arrivals

Chapter 1: New Arrivals
When the chapter begins, you will have limited control of the camera. Enjoy the opening scene, and when you're given control, exit the ship. Walk along the catwalk, watch the short Ishimura documentary if you want, and head into the next room. Open the door, and collect the Credits in the mail slot. Head into the booth, and activate the computer. Once the lights go out, you'll get a quick look at the enemies of the game, the Necromorphs. After Kendra gets the door open, run out of the booth and follow the hallway until you reach an elevator. Hit the call button and get in! Once the elevator stops, investigate the nearby door, which you can't open yet. Grab the nearby Plasma Cutter, and read the bloody writing on the wall. Stomp the green crate to open it, and either swipe or shoot the electric lock to open the door. Now you'll get a taste of combat! Body shots on Necromorphs do almost nothing, and getting close enough for a melee attack is suicidal at best, so that leaves you with one option: Dismemberment! Blow off one of the Slasher's sytche-arms, and take its' head off, too. Finally, blow off one of its' legs to put it down, and if it's still alive, fire a shot into it's body to finish it off. Collect any Credits or ammo it drops, and head out into the hallway. When you move, always move while in aim mode, this way you'll be able to attack at a moment's notice, without having to take the time needed to aim. Move down the hall and pick up the Audio Log for a useful bit of info, and enter the next room.
