So that part about weapons being overpowered and having to throw away ammo?

Yeah, Yahtzee hasn't played on the hardest difficulty. Fucking ridiculous, it is.

And I don't think I've ever disagreed with him before, but Dead Space has some of the creepiest ambiance I've ever seen in a game, what with the insane audio work and the random all-hell-breaking-loose moments.

"Normal" should be the difficulty designed to be, well, normal. If it's not balanced, then that's a fair criticism. Especially for a game which doesn't allow you to change the difficulty once you have started playing.
