Dead Space

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!

Exceedingly faithful to the original with a demonstrated understanding of the work, but not afraid to take chances with the story and mechanics in a way that flesh out and support the narrative. Everything from the original is here in terms of story, mechanics, and visuals but they've all been enhanced or lightly expanded to cover questions, gaps, or bring in-line features introduced later in the series. This isn't just a fan service pop-out or self-insert re-write, this is dead space done better with tools that weren't available and light narrative hindsight. The only detections I have are exceedingly minor and, ultimately, inconsequential in the face of this project's excellence.

Motive has taken on the momentous task of bringing a classic back to life and they utterly nail it, crafting a faithful game that tweaks just enough to unsettle returning and new players alike. The atmosphere is thick, the sound and creature designs are on point, and its graphical update sets the bloody and visceral standard for survival horror in 2023.

EA made a massive mistake ending this series, one of many massive mistakes it made after getting the single-player formula right so many times, but, hopefully, Dead Space: Remake shows them the passion and creativity that gamers lust for, and, hopefully, Dead Space has returned from the dead space EA left it in.

Greetings from Lithuania.

"Dead Space" (2023), a complete remake of the same titled legendary game from 2008, is simply put, a masterpiece. I beat this beast of a game on my PS5 once, and now i'm on my second new game plus run, but i'm 100% sure i will beat it more then twice. Its just a proof of how incredible this new game is. I loved the one back in 2008, and this new game is as good as it was back in 2008 only made for modern new gen era of video games. There are improvements made in story and some gameplay mechanics as well. But the graphics, music, acting, lighting, gore and everything else of a top notch. It is scary as hell, and atmosphere is like no other here. The sound design and effects are one of the very best - i playing with my pulls audio headphones and its just incredible to say the least.

Overall, not a single flaw i saw in "Dead Space" (2023). Its as best as survivor horror games goes - a simple survivor story in this incredible (and scary) world, Dead Space is a masterpiece in every possible way. On of the very best games i played in years and possible best survivor horror game you can find it right now.

Highly recommended.

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.
