"Dead Space: Extraction"

Lightgun shooter based in the Dead Space universe, the mechanics of which work well for the transfer to this particular genre. Add a coherent and properly fleshed out narrative which is unusual for this type of game, and it feels quite unique. The only niggle is that the structure relies upon a "stars earned" system to progress which essentially means you have infinite continues, compromising the sense of danger which makes me prefer the Resident Evil Chronicles games. But that doesn't stop it from being one of the best examples of the genre around.
