A new BANNED DEAD SPACE video was released at midnight last night, and its a haunting portrayal of what’s to come in EA’s much anticipated horror/survival game, DEAD SPACE releasing October 21st. The “Lullaby Trailer†was banned by the United States’ ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board), and therefore was only officially released in Europe.
However, thanks to the internet, we have it for you here on Slice of SciFi. WARNING: NOT FIT FOR CHILDREN UNDER 18.
Set to a spookified track of “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Starâ€, the trailer is loaded with incandescently lit rooms scattered with body parts, not-so-distant screams, and includes several gut-wrenching game play scenes depicting the protagonist Isaac being torn to shreds. The trailer was created by EA’s in-house studio team, who are proud to present this terrifying portrayal of DEAD SPACE.

About Dead Space:
Five hundred years in the future, humanity has exhausted much of the Earth’s natural resources, and competition for survival is tight. In response, Earth’s mega-corporations send immense mining ships called “Planetcrackers†into deep space to mine planets on a global scale – they rip the planet apart, smelt it down and then bring all the material back to Earth. When all contact is lost with the most famous Planetcracker, the USG Ishimura, Isaac Clarke and a small repair team are dispatched to restore communications. Isaac is a normal systems engineer, but what he and his team find upon arrival at the Ishimura is anything but normal. The ship is nearly lifeless and powerless. The crew has been horribly slaughtered and transformed into terrifying abominations. Now Isaac is cut off, trapped, and overwhelmed in a desperate fight to survive. Under development at EA Redwood Shores, DEAD SPACE is not yet rated by PEGI or ESRB. The game will be shipping on October 21st, 2008.

That’s a cool trailer.
