    An amazing game. I've done it 5 times. The mechanics, armor development, everything is great.

    Dead Space one is phenomenal. It is a game full of creatures, blood and loneliness. The controls are a bit clunky at the beginning, but after awhile, it's playable. The entrance of the ship Ishimura is a harbinger of what will come and what you will have to fight against. The atmosphere is gloomy and somber. At the beginning you already are tense and breaking out in a cold sweat. The soundDead Space one is phenomenal. It is a game full of creatures, blood and loneliness.

The gameplay is good throughout the game, you feel distress and sometimes panic stomping on the necromorphs. The soundtrack is satisfactory. Enemy's A.I is ok. Furthermore, the story is incredible. The game rises the tension and slowly reveals a great inversion of expectation. Learning about the markers and how they affect people was one of the best things in the story. The game is linear, but well done. If a game is going to be linear, it needs to have things to see in detail. It's very enjoyable looking at every corner of Ishimura, without knowing what lurks behind the wall. Therefore, Dead Space is one of the best survival horror on the market. It is a must play game.

После недавно пройденного Resident Evil 2 Remake эта игра имела схожее ощущение только с более гнетущей атмосферой и иным сеттингом, а RE2 я просто обожаю.

    This game does not feel like its from 2008. Best horror game i have ever played. Developers set the bar so high up that they could not make sequels as good as the first. Gameplay is smooth for a game of its age. Story was great, highly replayable with the military armour. Had little bugs and vsync problems other than that this game is a 9.4 to me.

    TL;DR: You're an engineer in a spaceship who has to dismember crewmates-turned-murderous-horde. One of my all time favorite games.

    Dead Space puts you in the role of Isaac Clarke, an engineer as part of a small crew heading out into deep space to help repair a mining vessel who sent out a distress call. The game takes the survival-horror genre and flips it on its head...or, more specifically, off its head. Like a typical zombie survival horror, the members of the spaceship which you're there to repair have all been transformed by some unknown force into horrible mutated facsimiles of life. The twist here, however, is twofold:
    1. You don't play as some combat-hardened soldier or a police officer or other witty, battle-ready bloke. You play as an engineer. Your department is brains, not brawn. The feeling of despair you get of being out of your depth, of resolve in using your brains to survive, and of sheer relief and exhausted elation when you eventually reach the end of your journey are that much more palpable because any one of us would be just as unprepared and just as lucky to make it through this nightmare as our silent protagonist.
    2. Instead of shooting enemies in the head for massive damage, the enemies in this game have to have their limbs shot off. Instead of a pea shooter and a shotgun, you get a laser cutter and a chainsaw. Instead of stopping when their heads are gone, these undead horrors will keep coming until they are incapable of locomotion. This makes the enemies themselves infinitely more terrifying, as you can't just cluster your shots towards their heads but have to individually hack away at every single individual limb of every fast-running hell spawn headed for your delicate face.

    This game nails the atmosphere, nails the combat, and nails the character. Whatever Isaac is feeling, you're feeling. Every enemy killed feels like a small victory. And getting away alive from this feels like a true accomplishment. I won't compare this to the newly-release remake, since I haven't played it, but this game has gone down as one of my top 10 personal favorites.

    Great game. Cool aesthetic, cool armor, cool weapons. Overall package is a very competent game that I would strongly recommend to most.

    I think it still looks and feels pretty good even today. Not one technical problem or crash. Supports ultrawide and higher framerates as well (played at 3440x1440 at 100hz).

    A NORMAL JOURNEY INTO THE SPACE

    BEFORE WE BEGIN:
    The game has been played on Xbox 360 and completed in every mode it offers, eventually achieving platinum trophy.

    QUARANTINE PROTOCOL ACTIVATED:
    The game starts by introducing, thanks to a cutscene, the game world setting. Immediately the player finds himself on the giant planet cracker USG Ishimura, a large spaceship used to dig into unknown planets' ground. Apparently no life forms are visible on the ship; this leads shortly thereafter to the player's discovery of the game's main encounter, the Necromorphs, deformed and repulsive creatures that would appear to be generated from the corpses of the former inhabitants of this ship. From there on, the adventure will be divided between uncovering the mystery of these absurd entities and managing to escape this spaceship safely.

    DISMEMBERING NECROMORPHS:
    The gameplay of the first Dead Space is that of a true Horror action, and I place the word horror first intentionally, since the focus of the game is on the horror part, as opposed to the third chapter of the trilogy; the gloomy atmosphere of the environment, the noises and cries produced by the Necromorphs rumbling through the hollowness of the spaceship, the rivers of blood flowing through the floors and those horrific scenes of death that Isaac will unfortunately have to endure in the adventure make the definition of the game genre clear. Right from the start, the player is launched in a chasing sequence, running from these monstrosities and then trying to find a way to succeed in counter attacking them, using various weapons unlockable as the game progresses through collectible schemes. The variety of weapons is quite decent for a game of this genre, and gives a lot of freedom to different styles of play. The game difficulty is neither too exaggerated to make it too horror, nor too easy to make it pure action. There are some environmental puzzles present, but they are quite simple and intuitive enough to become a feature of the game; there are also some rather interesting zero-gravity sections for a 2008 game.

    HOME IS FAR:
    Graphically Dead Space is a gem of the horror genre. This setting in space turns out to be one of the most beautiful seen so far, as well as one of the most inspired. The use of lights and shadows, Necromorphs passing through walls, dislodging cables and walls, and the proper use of color gradations make the game extremely immersive and scary. Let us be clear, this is not a horror game dedicated to jumpscare as it relies heavily on atmosphere, as already pointed out. The aesthetics of the various enemies and corpses also make it more gore and not very reassuring. Finally, there are a lot of death animations present; almost anything in the game that can kill you will delight the player with customized and very distinctive death scenes at times.

    HEARING NOISES:
    Dead Space excels here as well, using sound to add the excitement that the visual side cannot; the fear of approaching footsteps or behind a door, the frightening noises heard in the background, and even the frightening silence of the void give an essential addition to the final composition. The very accuracy of the resonant audio in space is also excellent. Little gem is the use of a very apt song in the game intro and trailer.

    Achievements:
    The achievements point turns out to be rather simple in this chapter of the trilogy, complete the game on normal difficulty, then do it in hardcore (with saves fortunately) and only with the gun. At least personally I found it extremely fun as an achievement. If this is frustrating for you, avoid thinking of getting the platinum trophy for the two sequels, because those will turn out to be hell on earth.

    BUT WHY 8?

    PROS:
    The game boasts numerous merits that defined a branch of the horror genre and in some ways are unmatched to this day; the sublime aesthetics combined with excellent level and audio design creates a near perfect symbiosis. The game is also really long for the genre and provides many diverse hours of gameplay.

    CONS:
    A couple of cons of the game are certainly the absence of special modes besides mere difficulty differences, something added later in the sequels, rightly so. Also, the clunkiness of the game's movements could be a small problem, which, however, is justifiable being the first title. Finally, the extreme difficulty in upgrading the various weapons, several playthroughs being required to complete them, leads to fatigue for those who want to upgrade them all.

    The interface, located right in the game, gives a sense of presence. Health indicators are directly on the suit, and the navigation menu opens in the form of a hologram from a handheld computer.
    The combat system with cutting off the enemy's limbs is quite original. You can do this with the help of different types of weapons, each of which has two types of attack: standard and alternative. It can also be upgraded, just like your own suit.
    The game has many different and original enemies with their own characteristics and tactics. Almost everyone should have their own approach.
    The game has a strong and very interesting plot with unexpected twists. The story keeps you in suspense until the very end.
    Dead Space is a first-rate video game horror, that definitely deserves attention.

I also want to mention necromorphs, which will be numerous throughout the game. Some are fast , bouncy, others are strong, and there are still those that, when neutralized, drop larvae that swarm trying to send the main character to the next world.
    I also want to note and, he's pretty good, the necromorphs are trying to get you wherever you are through ventilation or some other way.

    The weapon in this game plays the role of protecting the main character from his opponents, it is unusually executed here, especially I remember: a plasma cutter, a contact beam, a disk ripper. Some operate at short distances, some at long distances, and others have a larger coverage area than others, you can also prescribe a two to a necromorph and trample it into the floor with your foot.

    Pumping is done quite normally here, but there is one detail, to get a Power Node you will have to sweat a little , the modules are not so easy to get because of what they become valuable .

    I also want to mention physics, it's pretty good, especially for a long time, almost all objects have it, like necromorphs' limbs, boxes and so on.

    Throughout the entire passage , the game keeps the player in suspense , which is also pleasing , and especially when a giant tentacle grabs you and you have to shoot back from it .

    The atmosphere here is on a level, it feels like you are in the future, somewhere far away in space on the station.

    Also , the gameplay is complemented by the Stasis Module , Kinesis Module and the moments where gravity disappears , the Stasis Module allows you to partially stop an object or an enemy for a while . By the way, it was with the help of this module that I was able to defeat the mini boss at the end of the game.

    These were aspects that I liked , and now
    I will say that I didn't really like it :

    The physics of the main character's behavior is very slow , I understand that the main character can't run very fast , but in my opinion it could be done a little faster. Interaction with objects is also not very well implemented , but tolerable , as for objects in boxes on the floor : it was annoying that it was impossible to quickly pick up an object from the box, if you were standing to the left or right of the box , you have to stand right in front of the box and only then you will be able to pick up an object, and especially it was infuriating then when a necromorph is chasing you , and you try to open it along the way and wait for it to open , and when right in front of him , hoping to get an object , you are thrown back by a necromorph ( .

    The plot, in principle, is not so bad, but it did not go to me, because the plot turns are readable and you can predict what will happen next (in my opinion)

    Summing up, I want to say that I liked the game, it's one of those games after which I had the worst impressions . I think this game will be remembered for a long time .

    Total:
    8/10
    (minus 2 points for the plot and the physics of the main character's behavior)

    I knew this was a good horror game but didn't know it would be that good. Nowadays a lot of games are about skill checks, good boss design, multiplayer functionality which result in bloated games. In contrast dead space is a very simple game. There are only a few enemy types, the bosses are relatively easy, and the game doesn't really push you to master mechanics.

Dead space takes time to establish it's story, the progression paced nicely, there is always something you need to achieve and you understand why and this blend makes for a really immersive game. You feel for Isac and care about the story because it feels real when playing it. There is always a clever twist and something unexpected happening. This game reminded me what gaming should be about: getting lost into another world and immerse yourself into the hero of that story. Expand

    Survival Horror, der seinen Namen definitiv verdient hat. Der Terror ist, während man durch das Raumschiff läuft, Gegner bekämpft und Aufgaben erledigt, garantiert. Auch die Storyline ist für das Genre wirklich stark. Das Gameplay ist jedoch an einigen Stellen etwas träge, während einige Aufgaben etwas repetitiv erscheinen. Dennoch eines der besten Spiele des Genres (8/10).

    The biggest problem of this game is the controlling, sometimes this game made me even sick while looking around. And sometimes I ran to some walls, so this game cant hide their console origin and there are still technical problems, that EA didnt solve, because they dont care. There is a widescreen fixer, that changes the FOV and a mouse fix, they improve the game a lot.

    The dialogues are political correct, made to build up suspense and for teens, so dont expect intelligent characters or difficult gameplay, they even implement a idiot safe navigation system xD. Of course the game is very straight forward also "to avoid,that no one get lost". This game is so political correct, they implement even a female character who is bossing you around all the time and seldom put her life in danger. Do they think I will adapt my opinions to this "reality"?

    But other than that the game is not bad: The introduction into the story is perfect. The graphics still looks great.
    In addition I like that this game is more horror than another shooter, but maybe the ego perspective would have been better. And after few hours the effects are not so impressive anymore.

    I got interested in this game by an interview with the dev glen schofield in ars technica youtube channel, which detail about the game sound and HUD design.

    And i got a blast playing this game, i didn't give this game 10/10 only because of the story (which is more about the objective) and some section in the game, namely the zero-g, boss fight (big bosses i mean, that expand a whole room) and that damn turret section

    Aside from that, the game is goddamn art, and one of the game i replay the most .

    Starting with the HUD which is, to this day, is revolutionary. instead like most other game where the HUD just slapped in the screen, dead space implement HUD on the game element itself (ammo count on the gun itself, health bar on the back of isaac, inventory UI is projected like hologram), which help you immerse into the game world and boy oh boy, when you got immerse, the scare factor is payoff really well

    Horror in this game is done well, not some cheap jumpscare although there are few jumpscare in this game, the implementation is well executed.
    From the environment that tell you something terrible and wrong happen to this place, audio logs, and the sound design *chef kiss*, creates a uneasy and tension feeling as you play the game,
    The horror not only come from the environmental and sound design, but also from the gameplay aspect;
    ammo can be scarce and you need to be creative in killing your enemies to conserve ammo, when you go to a shop or upgrade station, the game doesn't pause it create a sense of unease and urgency, and often time, you have to fight in the dark where your flashlight only turn on when you aim with your weapon, which limit your movement

    Gun in this game feels satisfying, when you miss your shot and hear that gunshot not hitting the flesh of your enemy (once again, chef kiss sound design) it can be panic inducing and make you lose your **** but when it does hit, the sound is rewarding to listening ears and give you that courage to engage more with the absolutely horrifying enemy.
    Speaking of the enemy, the enemy has alot of variety from all shape and sizes, with many different way to **** you up. The design is also great, and their sound is just **chef kiss**, very horror.

    Level design is intricate and interconnected from place to place, and often time, you back track to someplace you already been, sometimes with surprises because kids like surprises.
    This level design supported by 3D Map that you can access via your Inventory HUD, but this feature often overshadow by the marker / GPS feature (idk how to call it) that show you a projected line in the game world that show the optimal route to finish your objective, i think it would way more fun to rely on the 3D Map and figure out the way yourself.

    The only negative in this game are the story, its good don't get me wrong, but isaac just do errand mostly (get the power on, engine on, etc), and i guess, well, isaac is an engineer after all.
    Also how the game teaches you certain mechanic, especially about how to kill the enemy more efficiently is like your mother yelling at you 24/7, character in the game explained it, audio logs also explain it, and the environmental design tell you too. You don't have to tell me thrice (that is how many i could count)
    And some section like the turret one, feel less like a horror and more like action, but the section isn't last that long and there's only 2 of them, but i still feel like that section is little out of place from the horror atmosphere.
    Zero-G section is also kinda disorienting, although this is fixed in the sequel, DS 2 and 3.
    Although dead space isn't necessarily horror 100%, because it implement some action game element into the game (such as quick health regen with specific key), i think the strongest aspect in dead space is dread, suspension, and tension.

    The negativity doesn't ruin the experience tho, its just my opinion and that negative aspect i mention doesn't ruin the experience at all, it just not my thing.

    In conclusion / TLDR:
    Play this game, its on my Top 5, masterclass audio / sound design, great gunplay and gameplay, environmental storytelling is very well done, every aspect in the game is well thought and implemented flawlessly with minor thing that bug me (variety of objective and some section that i already explain above)

    my suggestion is put some headphone to get the maximum dread experience

    Frighteningly spectacular game.
    It has a very heavy atmosphere.
    It's a game that manages to work and balance the question of horror with action. For those who are familiar with games from the Resident Evil franchise, or derivatives, most likely will like Dead Space. It's definitely on the list of best survival horrors of the seventh generation (and it's aged quite well, by the way).

    The clanky noises of your boot heels on the hull of the ship, the distant revving of malfunctioning engines, the primal shrieking of devilish creatures echoing throughout the ship, the dissonant shrills of stringed instruments: the sound design of Dead Space is one of the greatest strengths of the experience, greatly enhancing the immersion and atmosphere. Immersion and atmosphere are theThe clanky noises of your boot heels on the hull of the ship, the distant revving of malfunctioning engines, the primal shrieking of devilish creatures echoing throughout the ship, the dissonant shrills of stringed instruments: the sound design of Dead Space is one of the greatest strengths of the experience, greatly enhancing the immersion and atmosphere. Immersion and atmosphere are the main selling points of the whole game, really, whereas other aspects may be suffering and lacking.
    For example, the story of Dead Space is nothing impressive, really, with a pretty linear plot that doesn't get creative in any significant way, a fair amount of clichés and plot-twists that do nothing other than shock-value. And yet, this boring script is given so much life and soul thanks to the presentation: the claustrophobic narrow hallways of the ship, the aforementioned stellar sound design, the diegetic menus perfectly contextualized within the game keeping you immersed in the setting, or the dark rooms immersed in shadows with only some strobing faint lights hanging from the ceiling. All these tiny details compose an atmospheric symphony that truly captivates the player and drives them onward, making issues such as the pretty basic level design less noticeable.
    But still, Dead Space is far from being all style and no substance, and the Combat is actually quite addicting: hitting enemies in the head or the torso is extremely ineffective, since their main weakness is their limbs. This adds an exciting layer of tension to battles, since simply shooting your way onward is not possible (or at least not the fastest and safest option): the player needs to carefully target the enemy's limbs, and those are not always easy to shoot, as some enemies might require you to wait for a good chance or to take them on from behind. Furthermore, the good variety of enemies, aside from keeping the player alert, makes late-game battles a real treat as you have to take on many different types of foes, remembering their strength and weaknesses to find the optimal strategy to face them, using the many different weapons that the game offers you, carefully managing your resources. That's right: ammo is limited and quite scarce, so the player is almost constantly kept in a state of anxiety, fearing they might not have enough ammo to take on the next room, in a deliciously unnerving journey. Speaking of ammo and weapons: as I said, the game offers many different weapons to use in your fight against the creatures, but it's really disappointing how little difference it makes in battle which weapon you're using. So many weapons, and yet they all feel samey, or the differences are so minimal that they don't feel worthy of the resouces needed to upgrade them. There are only 2 weapons that feel significantly different from the base one, but the number of situations in the game where you'll actually feel like you should use them instead of the base one can be counted on one hand.
    And yet, Combat has an even bigger flaw, which is that everything nice that I said up to this point only really applies to Hard Mode: Normal Mode is just too easy, annoyingly so. The player takes too little damage and enemies go down way too easily, leaving you with so much ammo that you literally don't know what to do with it, killing almost all sense of tension and anxiety, leaving only atmosphere to do the job. A huge letdown in every mode are the Bosses, the only real stain in this otherwise really solid Enemy Roster. With the exception of the decent final boss, they are mostly glorified puzzles.
    Anyhow, Gameplay has also a pretty surprising good variety. Without doing any spoiler, just know that sometimes you'll be doing something other than shooting at monsters: these sections offer a really nice change of pace or a pretty unexpected breather, making the whole experience feel a bit more heterogeneous.
    The Level Design is decent, it does exactly what it needs to do, without any exceptionally creative or fun situation, 90% of the fun in this experience is due to the Combat and the atmosphere.
    When the level design isn't just decent, though, it can get actually bad, specifically in the "Zero-Gravity" sections, where we are greeted with awkward controls and often unfair enemy placements.
    Or, in other words: Dead Space is an excellent horror in the sense that it traps you in a dying spaceship, in its creepy claustrophobic hallways, truly making you feel the psychological weight of the situation thanks to the impeccable atmosphere crafted, even if the story miserably fails at giving this great atmosphere an interesting context. The core of the Gameplay, the Combat, is extremely solid and fun, but suffers from a lot of useless and pointless weapons and an excessively low difficulty, truly shining only on the harder modes, while other disappointing aspects, like the basic (sometimes straight-up bad) level design cannot be saved by changing difficulty setting.

    When I first heard about this franchise, I thought it was just a cheap Doom copy. Little did I know that this would become on my favourite franchises ever. The combination of good surround audio and visuals give the perfect horror athmosphere. The lighting techniques the developers have used make the game look good even by today standards.

    Çıkışından 13 yıl sonra bile hala oynanabilen pek az shooter oyunu vardır. Dead Space de onlardan birisi. Hatta yakında Resident Evil 2 gibi bir remake'i çıkacakmış. Zaten tarz olarak da benzerler. Kapalı mekanlar, hantal oynanış, düşmana isabet ettirmenin zor olması, cephanenin görece kısıtlı olması, envanteri yönetmenin zorluğu, iyi tasarlanmış düşmanlar ve bosslar benzerliklerin bazıları. Onda hoşuma giden ne varsa bunda da vardı. Açık dünya oyunlarından bıkamaya başladığım bu dönemde ilaç gibi geldi.

    Normalde combatı keyifli olan oyunlarda, görevde bir aksilik çıksa da biraz düşman öldürsem dersiniz. Ancak bunda tam tersi, karşınıza düşman çıksın istemiyorsunuz. Akrep gibi kuyruğuyla sokan veya üç tane uzun kolundan bir şeyler fırlatanlar ekstra sinir bozucuydu. Silah çeşitliliği bu tarz bir oyuna göre yerindeydi. Benim favorim testere fırlatandı. Ancak silah geliştirmeleri bana biraz dandik geldi. Silahları geliştirmek için gerekli materyal çok az bulunuyor, geliştirirken de bazen boşa harcıyorsunuz.

    Boss savaşları klasik zayıf noktasına vurma üzerine ama tasarım olarak korkutucu. Düşmanlar bir süre sonra kendilerini tekrar ediyor gibi görünse de içinde bulunduğunuz durumun değişmesi farklılık katıyor. Bazen oksijensiz ortam, bazen de yer çekimsiz ortam savaşın gerilimini artırıyor.

    Düşmanın zayıf bölgesine vurma zorunluluğunun verdiği gerilim oyunun en önemli özelliği. Bu unsur olmasa oyun çok daha sıradan olurdu. Sıka sıka giderdiniz. Ancak o hantal kontrolle küçücük bölgelere isabet ettirmeye çalışmak insanı geriyor.

    Sonuç olarak bugün bile gideri olan sağlam bir oyun. Zamanında oynasam gerilimden kafayı yermişim.

The opening scene is stunning and really takes me back as a young teen living in his parents house playing the game on a 720p television (yes crt aka the fat ones from back in the day and today i have an ultrawide 1440p monitor for my pc setup lol), and it all just comes together and its still so beautiful. After progressing into the game im always telling myself that i cant believe that this game came out in 2008 and and all the graphics and mechanics and gameplay overall is so revolutionary that even the last of us part 2 with all its attention to detail havent managed to do a dismemberment like dead space did and heck even RE games havent developed or took any influence from this game and thats why RE for me feels inferior to dead space. but im also upset on to why im that there wont be a dead space anymore and its sad to see that glen and micheal havent made an horror game since the franchise. I would love to see something from one of them again and i heard michael is working on something. But overall Dead space is going to remain my loving horror survival game of all time and taking it as the number one spot. I just wish that horror games would be more creative like this game is and not be so basic and cliche. Expand

    Вообще сеттинг прикольный, хотя местами конечно странный. Плохо то, что вся игра - это мочилово пришельцев, и где-то уже на середине игры это надоедает. В общем, в принципе для своих годов неплохо, но я бы не сказал что игра какая-то страшная, все же это больше шутер, чем хоррор. [7.5/10]Вообще сеттинг прикольный, хотя местами конечно странный.

    We have so fear and so boring game for 2021 year. Story is not good. All time we have any problem and you as protagonist do all job alone. It's real fear, but boring.

    Great game, very intense settings, a lot of relatively scary moments. This is a game that really got me hooked up, even though I am not really a fan of horror type games.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Загалос процитую відгук в Steam:
    "Игроки в Outlast и похожые игры: пук-среньк не увибай страшна
    Игроки в Dead Space: ТЫ ЩАС ПИЗДЫ ПОЛУЧИШЬ ЗА ТО ЧТО Я ОБОСРАЛСЯ"

    Атмосфера заїбись. Йдеш і очікуєш засади із любого вент люка. Першу половину гри проходиш на одному подиху. Далі вже не настільки весело: на початку тобі не хватає місця в інвентарі через перший рівень костюму, а після половини гри у тебе місце є, а обойми швидко закінчуються, так як моби починають брати кількістю, а босси затяжними битвами. (Ніщо не зрівняється із тим коли ти ВИПАДКОВО пішов на перший босс файт із: плазмовим різаком із 6 зарядами, широким плазмовим різаком, який помалу стріляє і має 5 зарядів, вогнеметом, яким треба в притул до дальнобійного босса йти, і метачем циркулярних пил, снаряди якої навіть не долітають до босса — вот веселощі). Ну і бувають моменти, коли навіть на середньому рівні складності у тебе горить жопа через затянутість завдання (та ж турель на метеорити і октопуса, чи босс в Гідроніці), легендарні завдання із категорії "Айзек піди відремонтуй, піди убий, врятуй нас, розберись з" і передбачуваний сюжет із галюцинаціями (хотя поворот сюжета із членами екіпажу я не очікував). Загалом на оцінку негативно вплинули геймплейні моменти. А так, "Айзек зроби нас єдиним". Піду попробую другу частину, поки підпкиска EA Access за 1 бакс не пропала.

    DEAD SPACE emphasizes sci-fi horror coupled with action, while its sequels increasingly prioritize action.
    Most of the time you are alone, stalking dim corridors, while piecing together what happened by text and audio logs. There's tons of necromorphs (hostile alien race and main "monsters" to kill in DEAD SPACE) to mutilate along the way - no headshots here, to effectively kill the necromorphs you need to shoot off their limbs.
    Isaac, the player character spends most of the time in his space suit, which displays his health - the game has no HUD! His weapon arsenal mostly consists of multi purpose tools that a mechanic/engineer (Isaac's profession) would have and the "ammo" count is displayed on the weapon itself. This is just brilliant.
    What I did NOT like is the controls: it was designed with consoles in mind and the mouse lags. This is really bad in some timed areas where you need to navigate zero gravity areas while running out of oxygen. This is why DEAD SPACE is not a 10/10 for me.

    Great game. As of 2021, all you need to do is force vsync, AA (super sample), AF, through the graphics and you're in for a good time. Atmosphere, gameplay, and story are all very good.

    I can't believe that a 13 YO game made me feel this great. I didn't expect it to be this terrific. After playing the following games with absolute fun, decided to play Glen Schofield's original masterpiece (as they called it). I am not gonna lie, this game is designed to get you terrified and make you shiver on your chair.

    The 2 reviewers below me do not know what they're talking about. This game raises the bar for the survival horror genre.

    Pros:

    - Graphics are amazing.

    - Large variety of weapons, each one is unique, and has its own special use in certain situations and against certain enemies.

    - The survival horror theme is implemented in a very effective way.

    - Story is interesting, and draws you in as you learn more about the alien life.

    - Very interesting perks that you can obtain, which are stasis and kinesis. Stasis allows you to slow down motion to a crawl and kinesis lets you throw/move objects. They are implemented in a way that does not make the game broken.

    - The game makes you take out the limbs of the enemies, which makes the whole shooting experience more challenging and tactical.

    - Music is amazing. Combining loud and quiet orchestral instruments during the right situations puts you at the edge of your seat throughout the game.

    - There are parts of the game where you navigate the area in zero gravity, its pretty neat.

    Cons:

    - Nothing that comes to mind, really...

    **Note: If you plan on playing on the PC version, crank mouse sensitivity to the highest in the settings, because the sensitivity on default feels quite low.

    Podría generalizar en que todo el juego es mediocre, pero no sería justo ya que tiene cosas muy buenas y cosas muy malas que hacen que lo bueno luzca menos.
    Empezando por lo malo tengo que decir que los controles en pc son lo peor que he visto en un juego actual (aunque el juego es de 2008, hay títulos anteriores que dan buena cuenta de ello), los gráficos no son nada del otro mundo (
    Podría generalizar en que todo el juego es mediocre, pero no sería justo ya que tiene cosas muy buenas y cosas muy malas que hacen que lo bueno luzca menos.
    Empezando por lo malo tengo que decir que los controles en pc son lo peor que he visto en un juego actual (aunque el juego es de 2008, hay títulos anteriores que dan buena cuenta de ello), los gráficos no son nada del otro mundo ( aquí también hay que tener en cuenta que aunque sea un juego de 2008, hay cosas que se podían haber echo mucho mejor), y por ultimo y para concluir lo malo que tiene este título, es que peca de ser demasiado action game por momentos. Esto no es malo si el título es un juego de acción y no un survival horror (véase DOOM), pero no puedes crear una atmosfera opresiva (que dead space hace esto a las mil maravillas), y dar al jugador INFINITOS recursos a lo largo del juego, es muy difícil hacer que el juego no sea injusto y que a la vez te prive de ir tirando balas por el camino, pero de ahí a literalmente tener que descartar munición por que no cabe más...
    Aunque la parte negativa, en mi opinión, opaca demasiado a la buena, es cierto que este juego lleva a cabo diferentes acciones a la maravilla, la atmosfera oscura y claustrofóbica es simplemente deliciosa para el público que busca en dead space la sensación de agobio propias del survival horror; el juego es DIVERTIDO, algo fundamental, y la historia es probablemente la mejor que he jugado en un survival horror fuera de los titanes del género como pueden ser RE y Silent Hill.
    Si la jugabilidad fuera mejor mi nota subiría hasta el 8, ya que no es así y como me parece un gran trabajo a pesar de los errores, si buscas un juego divertido y que sea capaz de hacerte pegar grititos de niña taiwanesa cuando ve a mike tyson, te recomiendo este juego!

    As soon as I started playing a game breaking bug occured which stopped me from continuing the story after you I the first pistol. This bug had the worst fix in the history which made me quit the game and uninstall:you needed to have the VSync turned on and not SHOOT the door, but to meele it.I highly encourage everyone to draw the curtains to this **** but not gold game.

You play as Isaac Clarke, where you are sent to fix the said ship after a reported blackout. That's where you encounter the Necromorphs. The only bad thing was that some of the mechanics were archaic and easy to exploit. So I didn't have much difficulty traversing the game without killing all the enemies. And the multiple layered levels, the map system over the sequel, verticality, the satisfying weapons were really the icing on the cake to this beautiful game. Must play, an essential really. Expand

    The gameplay is very good and different, it’s not just headshot everyone. Really bad that the game does not have HUD (and it is not needed). The Plasma Cutter (the 'main' pistol) is really cool. Very cool skill tree, it reminds me of FF X, but less deep.

    The story is below average overall but has 2 twists near the end. For the time that came out the graphics were absurd, nowadays

    For the time that came out the graphics were absurd, nowadays it's okay. Some scenarios are repeated.

    The soundtrack adds a lot to the experience, due to the ambience and jumpscares (light by the way), but it's not a big deal.

    I had a very serious bug, which the elevator does not reach and you are obliged to close the game and load your last saved save.

  1. This is a highly recommended game for science fiction and survival horror fans, with its claustrophobic atmosphere and horrible creatures.
  2. Overall, Dead Space is an extraordinary game with tons of shock value and action to whet any fan's appetite for some time, and with a campaign that lasts a steady 10-12 hours, that’s plenty of time to get lost aboard the Ishimura.

    Dead Space is a potentially great game that's hamstrung by an attempt to completely ape a console controller with a mouse and keyboard. [Dec 2008, p.58]
