Dead Space

I'm a HUGE fan of horror games, so when I heard about the Dead Space remake coming out, I was ready to get my hands on it. I patiently waited and managed to get a PS5, with God of War Ragnarök being my first game to beat. When Dead Space finally released a few days ago, I bought it right away and waited for the install.

This game is scary, people, and the combat can be challenging at times, depending on what difficulty you're playing on. I'm at normal right now and enemies still do a good number on you early on in the game. Your weapons don't do a ton of damage to start off with because you have to find upgrade nodes throughout the ship. Speaking of the ship, the entire setting of the game is beautiful. Lights flicker, steam hisses, and all the rooms are so detailed that you can use almost anything in a room as a weapon as soon as you have the ability.

The enemies are terrifying and unique. There will be points where you'll face two of the same enemies, but their behavior can be different. One will be slow and loud while the other is fast and quiet. It's very terrifying.

I put around 120 hours into the Resident Evil 2 remake and loved how much had been added to the game. Likewise, Dead Space is a remake of a classic game, but introduces new content that appeals to both newcomers and veteran fans of the series.

I give this a 10/10 and will probably be spending most of my time on this until Hogwarts Legacy. Whenever me timbers need a good shiver, I'll most likely return to this game for another round aboard the Ishimura.

Dead Space is survival horror at its peak. While I tend to think of Resident Evil as more action-oriented with horror elements, Dead Space genuinely creeps up on you and keeps you on edge throughout the entire experience.

As someone who didn't play the original 2006 version very much, but enjoyed Dead Space 2 and 3, diving into this remake felt like a fresh start. I was excited to discover the origins of a franchise that many have praised over the years.

The original Dead Space was a bold move at the time, introducing a new universe with rich lore. I'm glad it's back, and I was eager to see how this remake would bring that vision to life. And honestly? It does not disappoint.

The tension is real; I often found myself jumping at shadows, never quite sure when a necromorph would lunge at me from a vent or jump down from the ceiling. This constant anxiety was intense, and for the first few hours, it left me feeling a bit stressed. However, I eventually got used to it, part of the experience of navigating a horror game.

The necromorphs themselves are unique and grotesque, resembling a chilling mix of the creatures from "The Thing" and "Alien." The game's design choice to focus on dismemberment adds extra tension, turning combat into a strategic challenge, especially with the original and challenging boss fights you encounter.

One standout feature is the weaponry. Instead of traditional firearms, you use repurposed engineering tools, which adds a creative twist to the gameplay. It's a refreshing take that sets Dead Space apart from other horror games.

The setting of the space station feels like a mix of "Event Horizon" and "Blade Runner," with stunning visuals that enhance the eerie atmosphere. While I appreciate the level of detail, sometimes the factory-like environment can be a bit overwhelming. Still, the sheer number of movable objects throughout the game adds a nice touch and helps with immersion.

Character design and voice acting are also top-notch. It was great to hear the same actor return from Dead Space 2 and 3, and that small change of him taking his helmet off when speaking made the character feel more relatable this time around.

Unfortunately, it seems like expectations fell short for this remake, so a sequel may not be in the cards. That's a shame because this game really gets so much right.

Overall, I'd give the Dead Space remake a solid 9/10. It hits nearly every mark as a survival horror title. My only complaints are the occasional feelings of exhaustion due to the constant tension and how the drab scenery could be a bit much at times. But in the end, if you're a fan of the genre, this game is definitely worth your time.

I knew that dead space was a huge game in the past but due to the failure of dead space 3, the franchise died and got forgotten, but with this remake not only did it improve, but take dead space from amazing to a masterpiece game.

Before playing this game i wasn't into horror survival games but after playing this game I can pretty much say the horror survival video games got my attention.

This game is a must to play for the new audience that didn't play dead space back in the day because it's truely a amazing experience, it's also a must have for the old players because it offers new things but also being like the original, it's a game that when you play It you cant get off of it.

I hope they remake the other games aswell because the dead space franchise came back to life and showed every one that it can still rise to the top If you haven't played this game yet, what are you doing?buy it and enjoy it, its worth every single pennny.

The original Dead Space 2008 game was an instant horror classic. The story, the characters, the gameplay, the setting and the script all contributed to one of the best and most memorable horror games ever made. The remake not only recaptured all of this, but also developed on it to make an even better experience.

The remake included segments that improved the horror value and then changed certain segments that were deemed the original games faults and so improved the gameplay and pacing. The loading screens being removed helped with this as we never get a chance to relax, allowing the horror atmosphere to intensify for the viewer or gamer.

I was really impressed with this remake which was a shock as I was concerned that this would have been a worser version of the original game. In fact, it was better! The added side missions and cinematics also helped create even more curiosity towards the main plot, which for me, made the overall story far more satisfying.

This game was a clear example that even the best games can be improved. It was nice to see an old classic be revived and brought back to life! I hope Dead Space 2 gets a remake too!

I decided to give this game another shot, and while it isn't as good as the remake of Resident Evil 2 and 3 I do have to say that on its own it's actually a great game, I can deal with the small changes made, such as upping the graphics and giving Isaac a speaking role which he didn't have in the original, the aiming mechanic is weird but not a deal breaker, if EA does decide to remake 2 and 3 which I hope they do this is a game they can look back on and improve on what's already made it great, again I think it's a great game, it's better to not compare it to other games that have received the remake treatment which it seems to be happening a lot more often, it's definitely better than The Callisto Protocol, which tried to be like this but failed in many of those aspects.
