It's one of those pretentious marketing phrases which you can't help but begin to use. I do play a lot of video games but that doesn't seem to matter with Dead Space. It's so cinematographic (I'm amazed that's a word) that my flat mate is happy to just watch me play it on his Xbox.

Surely the correct wanker marketing term would be 'Survival Horror content'?
And by cinematographic do you mean (and I assume you mean something) that it looks AWESOME! Because my experience with things which look AWESOME! is that they are generally aimed at the young Americanish Xbox market. Things like gears of war, which looks great when you are hiding behind walls and firing blind over the top of them, or sawing someone in half with a chainsaw bayonet.
But in practice play like shite and have no or very little innovation in gameplay, gears of war basically just consisting of hiding behind a wall and making sure you have enough ammo and the occasional attempt to use the melee chainsaw brings the realisation that it's such a long and easily interrupted animation you may as well just shoot the person.

That was the most annoying thing about Mass Effect, the fucking powers. The shooting was great but there was too much emphasis on getting new powers whilst only getting marginally improved versions of existing weapons. And the tactical pause menu thing was pointless.
If it's more like bioshock's powers that might be bareable, because they were all basically just close range weapons of various sorts.
