I'd say if you like Dead Space 2 get it, I personally thought it was pretty good.

i gave it a 4 out of 5, it was good for what it was. price was right, i did like the fact that you got to see the area's before and after Isaac went threw there like some area's are not destroyed yet, and then when you get to medical you can see some searious damage there.

Only real big complaint I had is what I hear most people say, lack of a new game plus. Also putting that "new" enemy in there which is just one from the first game that they didn't put in the 2nds main story was kinda a let down I was hope for something better, but not putting the Ubermorph in it was very good.

★★★★ for me. I thought it was a very well written piece of DLC and felt like I could connect with Gabe just as I can with Isaac. Sure, it was a little short, and I felt like an idiot spending ten minutes looking for that darn power cell right at the end. I found that going through the hospital and seeing the remains of Isaac's actions was very good; especially walking past the tripod at the start of the second chapter. The ending was very emotional and overall a very good, but short DLC.

I actually liked it. Ive always like games like this and the older Resident Evils where another character revisits areas where the main character has been and you see what affects on the environment have or have not happened within the story. For instance, while playing as Gabe you revisit the hospital and pass the room where Issac Clarke first gets the plasma cutter and you see the guy who got gutted crawling and dying. Awesome.

Personally I loved this DLC, but that might just be because of how many underdeveloped ones I've been seeing lately. It was as long as I expected it to be but no where near as good. In term of all the sequences, they just felt as well put together and as detailed as the one's in the actual game. Such as

grappling with Barkley towards the end, the elevator sequence, and of course encountering the 'men in white'. It also opened up a new story which I'm hoping is linked to Dead Space 3.

I thought this dlc was supposed to expand on Dead Space: Extraction but it just left with more questions.

Oh, grassy I think the general assumption with that guy is that

he was the necromorph in the epilogue cutscene in the end of extraction, that he died of blood loss during the escape but when they weren't far enough from the Ishimura (and the marker) for it to not be able to affect him. So I think he's done with.

I thought it was good,i liked the way you play in the opposite direction to isaac. Its a decent length for DLC and the price. The only thing that i can find fault with is that i didn't know the characters as i've never played 'extraction'. How come it was never released on the 360?

Pretty meh. Got all but one achievement on the first playthrough and didn't feel the need to play it more after getting it.

[metalzine]

I thought it was ok, nothing new tho and for me didnt rly tie in with the main story line

[Earthbound_X]

I thought it was pretty good, it was nice to see Gabe and Lexine again. It was interesting to see they got married, since they didn't seem to like each other in Extraction.

Though a lot can change in three years. As for Mcneil, pretty sure he was the Necromorph in the ending scene to Extraction. So we can assume he's dead.

What I wanna know about are those guys in white, who seemed to have magic or psychic powers. There was nothing like that in the main two games.

the dlc doesn't make sense if you've only played the main game on xbox which doesn't have the first part of this story its like who the hell are they talking about and who are these people.

[atomic viking54]

I just played it (late i know) and I enjoyed it. I looked at it as, the more dead space the better

[Majica8]

I quite liked it, although I did rush through it a bit fast. Even on Zealot it was a cakewalk with the foam finger gun. I'll go through it properly at some point. It was an interesting story though.

[Reggiez]

Just finished this DLC and I thought it was pretty good. Sure it wasn't that long but the story was decent and the action was good as always. I didn't really like how they reused a lot of the areas though. Still I gave it a 3/5 and overall I liked it.

[FrozenRaptorz]

Pretty decent DLC though incase anybody is still on the fence about. Annnnnd easy achievements!
