VGA performance: Dead Space (DX9)

Dead Space

Sci-fi, horror and gaming, thats a combination that really works Dead Space combines all three of these to form an excellent and exciting game that will keep you enthralled for quite some time. Admittedly, the game can get scary at times. Dead Space is a blistering experience of lashing tentacles infused with a gory gash of a ripper blade. Aside from the string of alien guts and limbs youll be leaving behind you, little finishing touches are what really make this game shine.

One of the more fun titles I find to be Dead Space. Where in Fallout 3 the title leans very much towards ATI cards, DeadSpace leans very much towards NVIDIA cards. It's a title where even the GeForce GTX 260 SP216 wins over the HIS Radeon HD 4890 OC edition.

When you strip away the competition, you do need to realize that you can play the game flawlessly at any resolution though.
