    A superb remaster! Just as great as the original, if not better! It was great revisiting the USG Ishimura!

    This is a faithful remake of Dead Space 1 with several changes that make it a better experience than the original: Combat has a better balance this go around, resulting in less weapons feeling like they are "storage fodder," and the additional side content brings a lot more to the story.

    This is a very nice remake of a great game. The weapons and kinetic upgrade are fantastic and feel great to use. The enviroment of the game is scary and always keep you alert no matter where you are. The only negative i would give it is that a few times the game would glich and i couldnt get through a door or an area, causing me to reboot the game.

    This is Resident Evil 4 in space. The weapons and abilities are great. However, the game out-stays its welcome due to repetitive mechanics (please not another electricity-cog or zero-gravity puzzle) and missing quality-of-life (can't skip cut-scenes and few useful auto-saves).

    The game is good. But that's because it's almost the exact same game as the original, just with with better graphics and improved audio... and a few gameplay elements added, very minor. I don't feel like this should be considered a remake, it's a remaster. I bought this expecting to have a completely different experience from the original, like other modern remakes such as FF7 and RE4.

The Zero-G sections prove to be a highlight, offering exhilarating and visually stunning gameplay moments that add depth to the horror elements.

    While the game excels in most aspects, the later areas of the game can feel like a bit of a slog, slowing down the otherwise engaging pace.

    In conclusion, Dead Space remake masterfully captures the essence of survival horror, delivering an amazing atmosphere, an intriguing story, and heart-stopping scare moments. The game's solid gameplay, impressive graphics, and thrilling Zero-G sections ensure an unforgettable experience. Although it may have some pacing issues in the later areas, the remake successfully modernizes a classic, proving that Dead Space remains a haunting masterpiece for horror gaming enthusiasts.    … Expand

    A lot of people argue on whether this game needed a remake or not due to how the original is still available nowadays but I guess the real reason they say that is because they don't EA to run the risk of killing this franchise again like they did with Dead Space 3 but I would kinda argue it does primarily for PS users since the PS5 isn't backwards compatible with PS3 games so this isA lot of people argue on whether this game needed a remake or not due to how the original is still available nowadays but I guess the real reason they say that is because they don't EA to run the risk of killing this franchise again like they did with Dead Space 3 but I would kinda argue it does primarily for PS users since the PS5 isn't backwards compatible with PS3 games so this is honestly the only chance PS users have to actually understand why the IP is so beloved. Which makes me all the more satisfied for me to say that not only has EA Motive delivered on that, but I would also argue that there's no reason to pick up the OG since this remake is that astonishing and certainly up there as some of the better video game remakes as of recently. Right off the bat, I'm probably one of the few supporters of Isaac's voice in this game since it gives him a personality and human charisma that was straight up non-existent in the original, the scares are admittedly not very scary for me personally (although I suppose it's because I usually don't get scared by a lot of things nowadays), the atmosphere though, is so much better here that I was always unsettled no matter what, the zero-gravity sections are INFINTELY better here compared to the original since Isaac floats and can move in all directions compared to the stiff Superman jumps here did in the OG. The bad meteor destroying mini-game in the OG is replaced entirely with linking your weapons to the cannons and shooting them that way, THE LEGENDARY FOAM FINGER IS BACK and just like in Dead Space 2 and 3, it never gets old seeing there enemies you tried to run away from wishing they could run away from you, the way it subverts expectations by getting you ready for something just like in the OG only to do something different to catch you off guard. One thing I appreciate the most is how the game is done in one shot like the recent God of War games to keep the game immersive although it kinda felt weird here for me since the God of War games had a lot of cutscenes and coming from those to a game that barely had any felt strange. The entire Ishimura is non-linear this time allowing you to backtrack to places you haven't been to before and before you think this causes the game to get boring since this could you'll go back to rooms you've potentially already cleared, the developers thought ahead and placed dynamic enemy placement so you'll stay on the edge of your seat regardless you cleared out a room or not. The game also introduces side quests and I wasn't sure if I was gonna like them since DS3's left me divided but honestly even though they're short, the fact they expand on the lore of this means they have a place in this game. The combat is still so satisfying with it flows and it's even better with some old abilities getting new purposes. The characters remain spot on and the performances given from the actors are so much better than the OG, the soundscape is better than pretty much ANY HORROR GAME out in the moment due to how the direction of the sound changes depending where Isaac is positioned, and then there's one more thing that makes it truly special: it's just so beautiful. Now I'm not saying that just in terms of the graphics (like genuinely, it is a genuine looker), there's also the smaller details like when Isaac sees messed up stuff, the controller vibrates to replicate his heartbeat, the enemies now have a peeling system to make killing them more realistic, and depending on his health, Isaac's tone wills sound different. Overall, I hope my fellow PS brothers can enjoy this game because I strongly recommend this game from the top of my heart because it really is that amazing and here's hoping EA Motive can learn from this to help give Dead Space 2 and 3 the respect they deserve (although 3 is gonna need to start from scratch for that to happen) and maybe even move the franchise forward… Expand

    A NEW JOURNEY INTO THE DEAD SPACE

    BEFORE WE START: Dead Space Remake was developed by Motive Studio and published by Electronic Arts. This title is a true reproduction of the original 2008 game, produced by the now-defunct Visceral Games. This product sets itself apart from the various remakes in today's market by offering new mechanics and paths compared to the original. The game has    A NEW JOURNEY INTO THE DEAD SPACE

    BEFORE WE START:
    Dead Space Remake was developed by Motive Studio and published by Electronic Arts. This title is a true reproduction of the original 2008 game, produced by the now-defunct Visceral Games. This product sets itself apart from the various remakes in today's market by offering new mechanics and paths compared to the original. The game has been 100% completed on Xbox Series X.

    THE NIGHTMARE BEGINS, AGAIN:
    Dead Space Remake begins with an introductory scene to the game's story, showcasing the various members of the expedition, including the legendary engineer Isaac Clarke, the protagonist of the entire trilogy. Unlike the original, he now has an uncovered face and sets the stage for the continuous feast of visual and auditory delights that this remake offers to players of all categories. In fact, this cutscene fully showcases the graphical muscle it brings, with extreme attention to detail and visual effects, coupled with technically impressive audio. After this sequence, the player finds themselves guiding the engineer through the doors of the USG Ishimura, a massive galactic spacecraft dedicated to mining giant stars.

    LOST IN SPACE-SHIP:
    By now, the gaming industry has accustomed us to seeing great remakes adding a couple, or even no new mechanics compared to the originals. Fortunately, Dead Space doesn't disappoint in this regard either. Several sections have been updated and modified to provide a different experience even for those who have played the original. One significant mechanic that has significantly changed the approach to certain areas is the energy convoy system. This allows the player to redirect energy to specific structures such as elevators or doors at the expense of life support systems or, even worse, lights. This obviously adds more variety compared to Dead Space's typical linearity and gives the player more decision-making power. Finally, the last two major changes are the addition of more interactive objects on the map for defensive use, such as carts or pipes that can be used as spears, and the ability to explore a fully interconnected Ishimura, blocked only by security doors accessible during the story.

    THE VISIONS IMPROVED THE GRAPHIC:
    It's challenging not to fall into banality when talking about a remake that has improved every single aspect of the game. The lighting has been extensively enhanced and structured to evoke different sensations such as anxiety and anguish, or tranquility and solitude. The colors, faithful in every situation, perfectly convey the feeling of being immersed in deep space. The attention to detail, whether it's the decorative posters, billboards, wall writings, or various objects found throughout the game, builds a silent narrative necessary for such a dark title. Of course, there are some minor flaws, such as the animations, which are still below par compared to the rest, and some final cutscenes that feel hastily thought out and concluded.

    SOMETHING IS COMING:
    The audio department, even more than the graphics, showcases a remarkable technical level. For this title, a new 3D audio technology was used, which utilizes extremely realistic sound waves that bounce off surfaces just like in the real world. It's worth noting that you need headphones with 3D audio to fully exploit this feature, but the regular audio, which is meticulously crafted, is still impressive in its own right. Focusing on the 3D audio, it's one of the best, if not the best, on the market, and it's especially utilized to its full potential in a game like this. By using this feature, you can hear enemies climbing walls or rooftops, allowing you to predict their direction. You can hear entities approaching from walls several meters away. Not only does this make the experience smoother, but it also makes it extremely more horrifying and scary due to the unpredictability of certain sounds.

    WHY A 10? (9.5)

    PROS:
    Dead Space Remake, a reproduction of an already established masterpiece, improves upon 95% of the original, offering a multitude of new mechanics and approaches, a backtracking system, and terrifying audio and visual aspects. These aspects make it feel like a new game even for those like me who have completed the first Dead Space multiple times. Additionally, it provides access to the Impossible difficulty right from the first playthrough, a brilliant choice that allows veterans to enjoy a completely balanced challenge from the start.

    CONS:
    The negative aspects of this masterpiece are limited to the simple question, "Was it necessary?" This is because the original Dead Space from 2008 didn't need a remake. I believe that every fan of the saga would have appreciated a sequel or spin-off of the trilogy much more than this reproduction.

    RATINGS:
    Gameplay: 10
    Music: 10
    Story: 9.5
    Horror: 10

    The changes here feel earned, and really manage to blur the line between the OG game and a modern release.
    The original holds up well for a 2008 release, but the fresh look and visual redesign are absolutely impeccable. It holds the same tone and amazing ambience that the original had, while elevating it with the new lighting and smoke effects.
    It’s a stark reminder of just how good the OG Dead Space was, and just how sad it is that the series took the sharp turn in the wrong direction that it did.
    If this opens the door to remakes of 2 and 3 (which I would be so onboard with), I desperately hope that they open up 2 a little to make it less of a straight corridor in terms of level design, and for 3.. well, maybe they should just REmake 3 from the beginning, and actually make something approximating a survival horror game.

    All in all: DS Remake is fantastic.    … Expand

    This Remake also added optional missions which allows you to uncover more things that went on board the Ishimura as well as and AI director that can cause enemies to spawn in previously explored locations. This can lead to each playthrough being different and can lead to some pretty intense moments.

    If we are starting to talk about plot of the game, i must admit a new breathtaking direction of cutscenes, and how they evolved from original.The plot is nearly the same as it was in original, but - from the start of the game we can see Isaacs face, and they’ve rebuilt final plot twist right before final boss. But i think for new players, this games plot will be really interesting and it will stimulate to finish the game. And also developers added some side-quests, that expand already perfect lore to a new level.
    Also i would like to admit amazing reworks of bosses, such as second fight with Leviathan, that became a complete challenging bossfight comparing with the original. Also for me, bossfight with Hunter was much more challenging and more interesting than it was in original.
    Overall, theres nothing more to say, if you played the original i highly recommend playing this game, and if, on a gods name, u haven’t played original game - Dead Space Remake is a must play for you. A masterfully crafted horror game, with interesting story and challenging gameplay deserves your attention.

    Now that it'd been remastered I have thrilled to say it's an incredible job, the game feels like a brand new game released for this generation.
    Dead Space is in my opinion the best sci-fi horror. It perfectly recreates the atmosphere of a Resident Evil game, but in space and without the puzzles. It's very much a survival horror, and whilst inventory management is in the game, it's pretty minimal - which I'm thankful for.

    What Dead Space does incredibly well is leaves you along to play the game. It's fairly linear and even offers a waypoint path finder system to illuminate where you should go next, yet the game doesn't feel heavy-handed in forcing you to a path> Without the puzzle-solving to unlock paths, you'd be forgiven for assuming this game would get boring but the atmosphere is thick and the game doesn't hold your hand with combat encounters. Ammo is sparse and upgrading armor (suit) and weapons takes time.
    The story is also pretty interesting. Again very resident evil, that half the story is told by logs lying around, both audio logs and text logs. The rest is in-game cutscenes and video calls. I like this method of story telling as it allows you to immerse yourself as much you you choose.

    I very much hop they remaster Dead Space 2, as that was also a fantastic game.    … Expand

    Absolutely incredible Remake of the legendary game, visuals are standing even on PS5. There is nothing to say more because the original game exists since 2008. And it must be pointed out that feminism is out of control, Nicole Brennan was made much older and uglier, and Kendra Daniels was converted into a woman. That is really bad when you are forced to do it everywhere no exceptions.

I was a little cautious of the newly released remake, mainly due to EA's current reputation, and was not initially planning on playing through this story again. But I saw the positive buzz and decided to go for it and am pleased to say that it is a great showing and a good improvement on all the baseline factors that made the original game great.
    The gameplay is very tight if keeping to standard 3rd person horror shooter conventions. The combat is tense and focused in short adrenaline rush fueled bursts of hectic gameplay. This is all fueled by the best in class atmosphere and sound design. The massive, monster overrun ship you are exploring is literally breaking at the seams, creaking, busting pipes, falling debris, etc. all add to the tension that the game is trying to build. As you get to later sections of the game you begin to hear screams and whispers constantly as the main character starts to fall under the effects of the marker, the alien artifact that was brought on board and caused all this carnage.
    The story of dead Space is your typical sci-fi horror dreck. As previously mentioned this seemingly dangerous marker was brought on to the ship because the captain and many of the commanding officers are members of the church of unitology, a religion that believes these markers will help them transcend to the next plane of existence, or something like that. The game does a great job through text and audio logs explaining why this church and religion is dangerous and is mostly based around tricking their flock into donating money and possessions while hoarding power. For all effective purposes they are Scientology.
    I do hope that this leads to some new games and experiences within the dead space universe. While there are now a few more examples of this genre done right, Prey (2017) being the main example, this is still an area that can see some exciting and great new developments in the years to come.    … Expand

    - Animaciones de movimiento de Isaac poco naturales.
    Al rehacerse las animaciones siento que hubieron aspectos que se pasaron por alto, resultando en
    un movimiento "raro" del protagonista por llamarlo de alguna forma. En ocasiones cuando giras
    sobre tu propio eje o te mueves en diagonal/lateralemnete los pies de Isaac no se mueven por un
    momento, lo que resulta en un deslizamiento sobre el suelo, lo cual, hace sentir al jugador que el
    juego no está completamente pulido, por lo menos en este aspecto. Aunado a lo anterior, Isaac ni
    siquiera tiene una animación para cuando tiene baja salud, cosa que si existía en el original.
    Entiendo que implementaron el sistema A.L.I.V.E. que hace el juego mas inmersivo, pero mi
    duda es, si ya implementaste ese sistema, ¿Por qué dejar de lado la animación que denota que
    Isaac está herido?. Me parece una oportunidad desperdiciada, ya que, pudieron implementar dicha
    animación y además hacer que Isaac corriera mas lento al estar en este estado, transmitiendo una

    Looking at all the recent and upcoming horror game remakes and sequels, I was interested in but not particularly excited for the Dead Space remake. I was a fan of the first two games, but it had been some time since I’d played them… and in this horror game renaissance, the Dead Space remake has a lot of competition.

    Now? I can’t think of a game that has made me want a sequel so badly, so    Looking at all the recent and upcoming horror game remakes and sequels, I was interested in but not particularly excited for the Dead Space remake. I was a fan of the first two games, but it had been some time since I’d played them… and in this horror game renaissance, the Dead Space remake has a lot of competition.

    Now? I can’t think of a game that has made me want a sequel so badly, so fast after completing it. This remake makes a compelling case that Dead Space is not only worthwhile, but has an essential place in gaming right now. Why? Because Dead Space strikes a nearly perfect balance between action and horror, and demonstrates to me, like no other game has, that fun and fear do not always have to compete. Usually, they do—action games empower players, while survival horror games constrain them to create a feeling of vulnerability. But Dead Space manages to maintain real tension even as it gives you the tools to deftly take out small hordes of necromorphs. A lot of that has to do with the visuals and *superb* audio design and music—not to mention what Dead Space does best, immersion—but it’s also the franticness of combat as you juggle weapons and try to keep necromorphs at bay. Dead Space could benefit from being scarier in some ways—it’s certainly not the scariest horror game I’ve played—and I’d also like to see a sequel (a DS2 remake) expand further on the combat and find new ways to empower the player. The key here is that this remake makes me think both are actually, simultaneously possible. Story — the game’s narrative isn’t an all time great, but it is fully convincing. It feels seamless, and benefits a lot from the game’s commitment to immersion in all its aspects (from the in-universe UI to the single continuous camera shot approach). The writing is good, the voice work is great.

    Combat — every single weapon is a blast and is useful in some way. This might be the most fun I’ve had with a flamethrower in a game (they often suck). The combat becomes bliss when you’re juggling multiple weapons, using their alt-fires, and mixing in telekineses and stasis. The dualsense features are very well implemented and add a lot to the feel of combat.

    Graphics and audio — the game looks fantastic, with some minor caveats. It doesn’t reach the levels of fidelity that one might hope for in a current-gen-exclusive remake. The lighting is great overall, but transitions from light to shadowed areas can seem off at times. The audio design, however, is top tier. Play with good headphones and turn on 3D audio.

    Performance — I experienced no serious issues. The game appeared to maintain solid 60 fps except in one single area, a large elevator that you return to a few times. As necromorph corpses started to pile up in that elevator, the framerate started taking serious hits.    … Expand

Isaac speaks now, power node upgrades no longer feel wasted, and the USG Ishimura got a major overhaul, complete with in-depth side missions and open-ended exploration and backtracking, and even a new alternative ending to come across in NG+. I was afraid that because the original Dead Space has actually aged well, this would just feel disappointing and unnecessary, but it takes that same award-winning formula and enhances them, from the visuals and the sound design to changes to the overall map of the ship.

    A fantastic remake. Great atmosphere, awesome visuals and perfect length for an horror game (about 12-15 hours). Has some sound issues, dialogue are very quiet and enemies too. Made it hard to see where the enemies were coming from. As a guy who mostly plays every horror game on the hardest difficulty, I must say this one is not new comer friendly has I struggled on medium difficulty (1stA fantastic remake.

I found that making enemies a bit slower or giving us kind of dodge mecanic would have helped make the combat a bit smoother because whatever I would do, the enemies too often gave the first hit. Also, I really wished Impossible mode was not permadeath for obvious reasons. I had a few minor bugs and a crash that forced me to close the game. Would recommend!… Expand

    Yeah WOW! I played all 3 of the games before, and this remake is just fantastic.
    It was a brilliant game in it's genre back then, and it's still briliant today.
    If sfi-fi / space / horror appeal to you even just a bit: just get this gem, you will not regret it.

    Felt like coming home. Isaac and the necromorphs are back with a brand new paint job and a thorough tune up. Loved the atmosphere of the ship, the eerie sounds with the subtly mixed in sounds of monstrous cries. The flushed out lore, taking what was built up from three main entry games to expand the world of Dead Space.

    I’ve got the platinum on this. I guess this says enough how good this remake is

    This stunning remake renews a brilliant horror adventure and manages to feel like one of the freshest games we've played in ages.

    Isaac Clarke's original adventure is back in a new format, which has more depth in story and freedom in terms of gameplay. As a result, the game is recognizable, yet not the same which makes for a nice result. The game also has impressive graphics and the audio is unnervingly strong. That the game has some minor flaws we take for granted, because this horror adventure is recommended to everyone.

    The game has been immensely enjoyable and is a must-recommend, providing us with hours of gruesome, deadly fun in the void of space.
