OK people seriously, what happened to the PC version of Dead Space? I've been looking forward to playing it on PC since it was announced it was coming to PC. But now that the release date for the PC version has passed, I've heard nothing. No reviews, no talk of the DRM method, nothing, just empty space, dead space. I was afraid the PC version got cancelled I looked for it on amazon.com, sure enough its still there and in stock.

So people, has anybody heard anything about the PC version of Dead Space? DRM? Widescreen?

PC Release was six days after the Console release, so there wasn't a big emphasis on it.

Info on the DRM?

Mine just posted this morning, I imagine it is going to be VERT- !
Ah well I'll see when it gets here, if it is rubbish in that way I might just on sell it and get the PS3 version where it won't bother me as much :)

I just got it, and aside from some crashes, it is a great port. The controls only take only 15 minutes to get used to.

As for WS? I have no idea. I think it might be stretched but *shrug*.

You the man Paddy. Also apparently the 360 works on it; I read in PCZone review. SO I might try that if it doesn't 'gel' with M+KB
