Dead Space MSRP $70.00 Score Details DT Recommended Product “Dead Space feels a little redundant considering the original still holds up, but a well-executed remake still results in a standout action-horror experience.” Pros Cons If the mark of a good video game remake is that it preserves the original experience and makes it feel the way it felt the first time you played it, then consider Dead Space a success … by default.
Story was not the first installment’s strong suit, and that’s never been much of an issue. Dead Space spends a lot of time setting the groundwork for the franchise rather than telling a complete tale. It gives glimpses of what its version of 2508 looks like, balancing capitalist satire with searing indictments of religious cults.
More than anything, Dead Space is carried by a signature combat system that still feels better than most games of its size. The core idea is that Clarke can carve off individual necromorph limbs using an array of creative weapons. That turns every battle into a puzzle where players can manage swarms of aliens by strategically cutting off their legs or freezing them with stasis powers. Others have tried to take notes from it, but few have delivered action that feels so satisfying to execute.
Motive prioritizes natural changes like that over sweeping ones, which can make the project seem a little less intricate than it really is. That’s especially true of its intensity director, a standout system that dynamically changes the state of the ship through the game. The invisible director can completely alter a room’s lighting or change what enemies spawn where, making everything feel more unpredictable.
