Dead Space Ignition brings bite sized gore to PSN, XBLA

Dead Space Ignition will be released in Fall 2010. It takes place on The Sprawl right before Issac starts his adventure in Dead Space 2.

It includes three hacking mini-games called Hardware Crack, Trace Route and System Override. These games are complemented by four different endings that are dependent on your actions in the game.

Or perhaps the bigger question, SHOULD it be made into a film…
