Life is Xbox: 81 / 100 by Dae Jim
Dead Effect 2 has so many light elements from so many genres and brings it together into something pretty special.
TheXboxHub: 3 / 5 by Carlos Santuana
Overall and Dead Effect 2 is a game that offers a fantastic visual experience, but lets itself down with very basic issues. That said it is in no way a terrible game, and those looking for a viable first-person shooter should certainly give it a bash if you’re fed up with the usual titles on the market. If precision and polish is something you can’t look past though, then you may feel slightly disappointed.

Dead Effect 2 is a game with big aspirations that simply doesn’t reach the heights for which it shoots.
