Nearing the end of my second run through Dead Space 2, I had to unlock a door while fighting a regenertating creature. I finally escaped through the door, only for it to follow and kill me. Luckily, I spawned alone in the hallway I had escaped to. Unfortunately, my health and stasis were almost out and all 3 of my guns were out of ammo.
Of course, when I rounded the corner, I ran into about a dozen creatures. After about a dozen tries, I finally managed to high-tail it to the elevator and slip in (by using the last of my stasis on the creature following me), only to end up in another room with more things that wanted me for dinner.
Luckily, I broke a few little crates, got a little ammo, and (after a few more tries), got through THAT area. I then ended up in a Zero-G area, dodging laser beams while also dodging a plant-like creature's floating seeds (or whatever they were). I don't know how, but I made it to the end, and hit the button to restore gravity and destroy the creature. Unfortunately (AGAIN!), nothing happened, and the creature shot me just as I hit the button again (I'm SO glad for that 1 small health pack in the last area!).
Now I'm in an area with an item room, a store, a work bench, and a save area. After all that crap, I'm doing the unlimited-item cheat to fully upgrade some of my weapons. I don't care if it's cheating; I deserve it after limping through the Halls of Hell!
