This is a fully realised space station complete with everything you could possibly think of. Everything looks real, right down to the level of detail in small items like fire extinguishers where you can literally read the warning label in its entirety that is on the extinguisher! Isaac is very detailed also with blood and gore effects more present than ever on his RIG (armour). And, when I say detailed I certainly mean it. There is so much attention to detail on this remake that you might very well spend as much time simply looking around as you are exploring the ship itself. Considering the original was utterly beautiful in its own right, and I have played the original more than once and its sequels, I do believe I am in a position to set you straight regarding just how amazing the game is.įirst the upgrades to the graphics make the USG Ishimura a beautiful, horrific, rust, and monster-laden wonderhouse that begs to be explored. The improvements upon the original make it absolutely shine, and it is a stunning example of what you should nowadays be expecting from a next generation title.

Distress call aside, the ship is also the one that his girlfriend is currently working on.ĭead Space the remake is a masterpiece, there is no getting around that.

There, I’ve done it, I actually thought it would be harder than that to say the cold hard facts of the matter, but yes this remake by our friends at EA Motive is better than the original offering and for fans of the series who have been wondering whether or not to play this game, I can say with confidence a resounding yes!įor those of you who do not know what this game is about, it is a survival horror story done in the third person where you play the role of an engineer by the name of Isaac Clarke who is sent aboard the spaceship USG Ishimura to answer a distress call picked up in deep space. This new remake of Dead Space is better than the original.

It took a lot of courage to admit to this, but I thought at the very least I owed it to you good readers who took the time to check out this review.
