The remake is great so far! Classic game remade with great weapons and side stories! Love it so far

This is a definite recommend from me. Perfect blend of horror and action

Excellent game, a must have for survival horror fans.

I’ve played the original game over a dozen times. The developers have created a masterpiece with this remake while staying true to the roots of what makes Dead Space unique and immersive. The graphics, musical score, sound effects, combat and voice acting are excellent. I also enjoyed how the game’s story was expanded on via video and text logs. The atmosphere is very eerie, creepy and intense. I’m on my fourth playthrough with the hand cannon and burnished suit that I unlocked last night after finishing the game on the impossible mode setting. It was grueling at the time but taking down necromorphs now with one shot is awesome. I’m crossing my fingers that Dead Space 2 and 3 get remade with the same level of care and attention to detail even if some changes are made. If you enjoy the horror/survival genre and/or science fiction then give this game a chance. It is a best in class experience.

As a disclaimer, I can’t draw a comparison to the original game as I’ve never played it. That said, I now understand why a remake of this game was met with such excitement. In short: - It has remarkable atmosphere with some quality scares. I’m a horror film fan and it got me a handful of times. - Combat is fun, challenging, rewarding, chaotic, and best of all—interesting. I enjoy that your experience with an enemy depends not necessarily on how much you shoot them, but where. - The controls are tight and responsive, and the haptic feedback is a nice touch. - I enjoyed the story. I’ve come across some commentary about minor changes to the story compared to the original, so be aware of that. There aren’t many games that I circle back to some time after completion, but this may well be one of them. I sincerely hope we get additional remakes from this series!

2008 we had one of the best survival horror games ever come out! 15 years later we get a remake that not only expands and respect the original in every way but is also superior to said classic. This is one of the best remakes to date, on par with Resident Evil Remake. For those wondering if the scares are still there…they are! And the way the use the lighting is amazing. Honestly the best lighting in any game, literally keeps you on your toes. For the expanded parts we get to venture into areas that we couldn’t before. Plus there are some nice side missions that reveal some secrets on certain things. The graphics are beautiful and the necromorphs and their dismemberments are gruesome yet beautiful. Definitely nice to get the voice actor from 2 and 3 that adds to the nostalgia. This is a must game to play and own! This is a contender for game of the year and an amazing start for survival horror games of this year!

Absolutely incredible. The atmosphere in this game is truly something special and highly immersive. Every time I booted up this game and put my headphones one, I felt like I was dropped into a dark cave with a shoddy flashlight and no way to communicate with the outside world. It's truly horrifying. That said, once you start improving your weapons and suit, you feel a little less threatened when some encounters and then the game becomes a strong balance of scary and satisfying confidence as you dance around and hit your enemies with strategy. The zero gravity sections are probably my favorite. The story is pretty good and didn't feel too drawn out. The voice acting was good and I thought the game length was perfect. I believe I played on Normal or whatever the standard difficulty is and it felt pretty fair. Even when you're decked out in the end, there are still some challenging creatures and areas to navigate. I'm still going to keep my 5 star rating but a few minor things that annoyed me is that the game play remains live when you view your inventory and map. The map is also a grainy VHS-like HUD that's both small and on an angle so it's not the easiest to read. It's also easy to accidentally walk through a door that advances the story and then quickly see you completed the chapter and the side quests are crossed out. That was very frustrating as I wasn't always ready and sometimes it was when I was attempting to backtrack to complete a side-quest where I would end up closing the chapter and locking out that quest. I also wish you could read the primary and secondary ability of each weapon whenever you want. It's presented fairly quickly the first time and can be easy to forget if you don't use it often or are in the middle of a fight when you pick one up. All in all, this is an absolutely incredible experience not to be missed and a GOTY contender (for me at least). While the story and acting doesn't quite have the emotional punch of something like The Last of Us, it's definitely up there for me in a similar vein of feeling completely immersed, scared, and drawing great satisfaction once you get in the swing of things. It was an amazing experience and might add this into my rotation of games I replay once each year.

Great game! High areas but in a good way! Jump scares abound

Gameplay and Atmosphere: The remake of "Dead Space" for the PS5 takes the horror survival genre to a new level. The game retains the core mechanics of the original, with strategic dismemberment combat, but enhances them for a modern audience. The atmosphere is oppressively terrifying, with every corridor and room filled with a sense of dread. Visuals and Audio Design: Visually, the game is a masterpiece. The lighting and textures are incredibly detailed, perfectly capturing the eerie, derelict nature of the USG Ishimura. The audio design is equally impressive, with the sounds of the ship and the Necromorphs adding to the immersive horror experience. Performance on PS5: The game runs smoothly on the PS5, with load times significantly reduced and graphics rendered beautifully. The utilization of the PS5's hardware, especially the 3D audio and haptic feedback of the DualSense controller, enhances the sense of immersion and terror. Story and Characters: The narrative stays true to the original, with Isaac Clarke's harrowing journey to survive and uncover the truth. The character development, especially Isaac's, is more fleshed out, adding depth to the storytelling. Horror Elements: "Dead Space" excels in its horror elements, with jump scares and a constant sense of tension. The game's ability to balance action with horror ensures that the gameplay remains engaging without losing the fear factor. Final Thoughts: This remake of "Dead Space" is a triumphant return for the franchise. It respects the original while making improvements that appeal to both long-time fans and newcomers. The game stands as a testament to how classic games can be revitalized for modern consoles.

Amazing remake, great graphics and good story. A huge improvement from the original

This remake is everything I hoped for and more. The graphics are stunning, the sound design is terrifyingly immersive, and the reworked story adds depth without losing the essence of the original. A must-play for horror fans!

Fast action and good story ++ shooter creepy atmosphere

Love this game Everything that makes a game great is shown through this remake, the ability to keep you engrossed into the story is remarkable really. Chapters & hours fly by whilst playing as this game's as riveting as is challenging. Playing through my second time on hard has just as much ooompff as the first time, all be it the trickier areas can first time now as know what to expect. Everything is very polished & non gliccy no bugs or fr issues, no lag or bad textures from any picture issue's just all round very smooth. Story's easy to grip with a lorra twists n turns to keep you interested a long the way. Very similar to remnant part from no roll system.

I was surprised when I began to play the game turn out to be lots of fun I would come home from work and spend hours playing in front of the television well worth the purchase

Just like I remember it, but better in every way! Graphics, sound and the horrific atmosphere were right on par with a next gen remake. This is not a Dead Space for gaming thrills!

I haven’t beat the game but, so far, it’s quite good. The graphics are excellent. I don’t have a fancy 4K TV but even on my humble 1080p monitor the game looks so good—the art direction and lighting make for a great visual feast. The gameplay is solid. It’s a third-person shooter so it feels a bit familiar but the dismemberment mechanic makes it feel unique. It’s so fun shooting at enemies’ limbs—watching them slowly lose their flesh and bone until they finally break off. The plasma cutter (the starting weapon) feels great to use—the feedback and sound make for an enjoyable experience. As you progress in the game, you unlock other weapons. They’re all different so they offer new ways to play the game. There’s also the stasis ability which allows players to slow down enemies. This allows players to get some easy kills or to get to a safe distance if one (or several) enemies get too close. The story is interesting. I don’t really care about the stories in video games but, if you do, I don’t think you’d be disappointed with this one. In conclusion, the atmosphere, visuals, and gameplay are all great. I’d highly recommend this game if you like third-person shooters.

The game shipped on time and in excellent condition. No issues with the disc or packaging. The game itself is incredible. I played all the original Dead Space games when they came out. And, this remake absolutely does the franchise justice. It keeps the core elements and mechanics of the original, while updating the sound and graphics beautifully. It's also still terrifying. Plus, small tweaks were made to improve the flow of the story. This is how remakes should be made. I put it right up there with the Resident Evil remakes.
