I remember having fun with the first game; between the demo and what's been set loose on YouTube in terms of end-user gameplay, this iterations is looking interesting.
Now if there's one thing I can readily think that could have been done differently, it's the handling of the various decision points' 'flash-forwards'... if the devs wanted to drive home the point that you'd have no idea exactly how your choices would play out, they should have taken a page from Marvel: Ultimate Alliance and saved the flash-forwards for a montage which would be woven into the ending cinematic.
As for content, I was amused and surprised to hear that folks playing the PSP version (which plays more like an old-school arcade title, a fact which works for the platform) can unlock Issac Clarke and Dante as playable characters; the Dead Space protagonist is the reward for making all the 'principled' choices; ruthless players would get the star of the 'Divine Comedy' and its upcoming game treatment.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
