Forum Overview :: Dead Space

Unlike others, I'm not clever enough to make something like that up. by Jerry Whorebach 09/15/2011, 10:43pm PDT The final boss is a huge octopus-sandworm type thing, with six glowing 'eyes' arranged around a central maw. After you destroy four of her eyes, she grabs you with an (unavoidable) tentacle and dangles you upside down. This at the very least inverts your controls, and I'm fairly certain also reverses them - it's hard to say for sure, because at this point I was pretty much just moving the analog stick at random. (I was already playing with what the options screen refers to as "inverted" controls (the proper kind, like a flight sim) because they're the only kind I know how to use and I'm absolutely terrible about adapting to anything else, so this bit completely did my head in.) Fortunately, the window of time after she grabs you is generous enough that I was able to target the last two eyes purely by chance, thus saving human civilization and all its pristine corpses for me to stomp on.
