Dead Space Extraction 'glow worms' offer unlimited light, arm cramps
Ammunition is not the only scarcity in Dead Space Extraction. In fact, flashlights seem even more difficult to come by, as miners on Aegis 7 are left to keep their wits about them basked in the comforting greenish hue of a "glow worm." The game's equivalent of glow sticks, glow worms offer an unlimited source of light that must be recharged by shaking the Wii remote.
As mentioned following our recent time with the game, the mechanic, which is described in greater detail on EA's Dead Space blog, certainly ups the scare factor. Still, we can't help but wonder if -- after 10 or so hours of vigorous shaking -- these glow worms will leave us clutching our arms, reeling from a wholly different kind of strategic dismemberment.

Would you recommend that we...shake it like a polaroid? Four years too late?

This is different from charging the beam katana in NMH how?
ArchGamer @ May 5th 2009 11:00PM
We don't see it, that's the difference.
If you don't mine me, I have an appointment to attend to...

Doesn't sound like it will have recharges. You shouldn't need to recharge your beam katana manually, unless you really like charged attacks.

I should qualify that, recharge it *often*. Also, most people who really like NMH will have the unlimited power upgrade, and not think about it.

Trust me, I've moved my wrist in an up and down motion for much longer than ten hours at a time... Playing tennis!

how do you play tennis with your hands down your pants? and ain't that a bit suss?

No, I play it butt naked. Get it right.
