Dead Space Cheats

You have to collect 8 schematics. Some times these objects will have a dark blue/purple glow. Schematics are like blue prints for armor and weapons, they allow you to buy them at the store or upgrade your suit. Their is a schematic for 6 levels of suits and 6 guns. You should get this early in the game.

Dismember 1000 Limbs

Shoot for the head, arms or legs of aliens, after their dead run to their body and stomp off every limb until you just have the body left. Head, arms, and legs can come off. You can do this on normal dead bodies too. Rinse and repeat, it's pretty amusing.

You get Marksman Achievement by dismembering 20 limbs, and Surgeon Achievement for 500.

You will come across a shooting gallery in level 9. Use the Plasma cutter have it on vertical firing mode. The goal here is to shoot all the red guys as fast as possible (if you miss a red guy you lose) and without shooting a single blue guy. It takes a little bit of practice but its pretty easy. You will get good prizes too.

Here's where it is:

Entering cheat codes in Dead Space won't prevent any achievements, so you can use them to help you out with them.

Beat the game on any difficulty and you will unlock the impossible mode. You must beat it on impossible to receive this achievement. Like the name implies it is VERY hard. Always make use of every possible item you find. If you can't carry anymore head back to the bank to make a spot for it do not waste med packs. Sell air canisters, upgrade only what you need. IE, suit HP and Air and the only gun you use. Save as often as possible. Conserve as much ammo as possible, try shooting out the legs and crushing their heads with your foot to save ammo. Use the stasis and the stasis cheat unless you don't want to cheat. Its up to you. It does not effect achievements.

YOU WILL UNLOCK IMPOSSIBLE MODE IF YOU BEAT EASY, AS SOON AS YOU START THE GAME ON IMPOSSIBLE SAVE OTHERWISE IT WILL DISAPPEAR AND YOU WILL NEED TO BEAT THE GAME ON ANOTHER DIFFICULTY TO UNLOCK IT AGAIN.

This achievement is a pain. Always look for blue and yellow cases on the wall each one has a power node guaranteed. Do not sell your weapons, you will lose all upgrades you bought for them. You will need to do multiple play throughs on the same save. You can purchase power nodes at the store for 10,000 credits each, so be sure to save up your money. Concentrate on stuff you need first then move on to weapons you don't use. When you want to upgrade go to up to a work bench and press A, then select what you want to upgrade and start popping in power nodes for each upgrade slot. 155 Power nodes needed total. You do not have to waste them on the empty slots, try and go around them.

During chapter 4 you will come to a room with many panels that are missing, they have blue lines coming from them. Do not step on them as they will instantly kill you. You need to get monsters on them and kill them with it and you will get the achievement. To do this have your stasis gauge full, hit them with stasis and then push them by walking into them with your body until they fly up and die. Make sure you don't go with them. You should have just enough enemies, if you do happen to run out and still don't have the achievement there will be a few more panels on chapter 9.

Find the Peng Treasure

You can find this on chapter 11, in between the two walk ways. Its an award probably an easter egg from the developer. Anyway just grab it with kinesis and pick it up. It can be sold at the store for 30,000 credits!

Peng's Treasure is located directly to your right as you exit the ship on Chapter 1. Unfortunately, its also out of reach. When you come back here in Chapter 11, you will have Kinesis to grab it with.

Here's a picture if you're stuck:

First, you must beat the game on New Game Plus mode, with the Military Suit bought and equipped, and save the game right before the last boss. After the game ends and the credits roll, skip them, and do not save the game when it asks you to. Instead, immediately start a completely new game on Impossible difficulty, and you will start the game wearing the Military Suit.

Save after finishing the game. Then, load your CLEARED GAME save. You will start a new game on the difficulty which you previously beat the game with all you Items, all your upgraded equipment, including 10 extra power nodes, 50,000 extra credits, and the schematic for the Military suit (a LEVEL 6 SUIT that costs 99,000 credits).

Ok, the achievement is to collect 150 logs, it's not as hard as it seems because you get a log every time someone speaks to you and gives you instructions. Other then that just check out rooms and you should find audio logs, video logs, and text logs, you don't need them all to get this achievement. There are a total of 168, so you can miss 18 and still get it.

You will come across the Leviathan at the end of chapter 6.

At the very beginning of the battle white worm like things will shoot out from underneath it, quickly shoot the yellow parts of them to kill them. After all 3 are dead it will shoot exploding rocks at you from the middle of its mouth, while its shooting catch them with kinesis and shoot them back for the playing catch achievement. After you get it just shoot them before they leave his mouth and it will hurt him more. Keep shooting them and its dead.

Kill a brute.

During the game you will face many of these. The line gun is very good against them. Try and shoot them between the shoulder blades. Other times if you shoot them enough they will lay down and get tired and you can go around behind them and shoot their back till they die.

Survive the ADS Cannon with over 50% shield strength remaining.

As soon as you cross the big cap where the asteroids are coming at you. Have the door close and SAVE right before you get on the gun. If you don't save and go below 50% shield strength on the gun you will not get the achievement. I just got this achievement with 77 shield remaining. What you need to do is focus on the big rocks and the really fast ones. Fire both guns at the same time. It will kill the big rocks a lot faster. Remember that the sequence is scripted so it will be different every time. If it goes to 49 quit out and load again you will be right next to the gun for another try.

It's also a Star Wars reference. :)

Catch a Brute or Leviathan Pod using Kinesis

Ok, you can get this when you fighting the Leviathan in chapter 6, or you can do it with a brute. To get a brute to shoot at you first shoot off one of it's shoulders and it will shoot pods at you if you at the right distance. All you have to do is catch the pod with Kinesis, shoot it back, and that's it.
