Pros
- The setting is so atmospheric, lots of distant noises that could be the station's ventilation system or a monster. I love the look of the game with your health bar on your back and the plasma cutter is the best weapon in a video game and...
- The Dead Space remake is superb. The original is/was one of my all-time favorite games and the remake not only did it justice, but fixed some things that didn't quite work.
- Dead Space Remake: 8.5 / 10 (Excellent) The first Dead Space had a huge advantage of getting the remake treatment - the graphics looked fantastic, the side quests were solid, and it played smooth throughout.
- Am I crazy for thinking the Dead Space Remake is straight up one of the best games in recent years? It's a joy to play and absolutely dripping with atmosphere.
- The remake is fucking astounding. I loved the original, but got damn. That remake.
Cons

The setting is so atmospheric, lots of distant noises that could be the station's ventilation system or a monster. I love the look of the game with your health bar on your back and the plasma cutter is the best weapon in a video game and it's fun carving off enemy limbs.

I loved the Dead Space remake. I really wish we could have gotten more. The remake deserved so much more love than it got.
In conclusion, I would without hesitation consider this remake the "best" in the last 24 years. It hit every single mark required and even threw in extra content. Since this game goes on sale quite often, I can give it an unconditional recommendation to buy.
