Dead Space 3 launch trailer unleashes Phil Collins
The 'Take Down the Terror' title of Dead Space 3's launch trailer feels like a misnomer at first. It's not even scary, for one thing, let alone terrifying. But then the background music coalesces, stirs, and rises, and it hits you like a ravenous reanimated corpse: you've been listening to Phil Collins. We'll have nightmares for weeks, EA.

It's the latest metafictional scare from Dead Space 3, with past chills including reports that the PC edition is a straight port and optional microtransactions for crafting materials to appeal to mobile gamers. Expand the horror beyond the game, yeah? I see what you're doing there, EA. Clever.
Still, don't be put off by my naysaying. Kat Bailey enjoyed what she saw of Dead Space 3 in our December preview.
Dead Space 3 is coming to PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on February 5. A demo is out now on consoles so you can judge the levels of horror, terror, and Phil Collins for yourself.

One of the best trailers I remember seeing was for Dead Space. Sigur Ros' Untitled #7 was playing in the background and it was fucking awesome.

These soundtracks give the games a whole different feel. I never would of thought to pair Sigur Ros with Dead Space but oddly it puts it into a different perspective.

Yeah, that DS1 trailer is one of my favorites as well. It instantly changed my opinion of the game from "meh" to MUST BUY NOW.

Only in small, specific, targeted doses. Kind of like my ex.

At this point, Kinect seems to be little more than an expensive microphone for the 360.

I remember liking the Sigur Ros trailer also. This trailer kind of sucks. The music is really bad. Cheesy interpretation of what could have been.
