This is a really good addition, allowing a bit extra exploration, and it changes up a few of the areas, like getting the spinning core up and running again after attaching the arms. For the former, you now have full 3D control of Issac, instead of hopping from one angled platform to another. The two biggest gameplay changes are the Zero G areas and new circuit breakers. This really sounds similar to the plot of the awesome classic movie Even Horizon with a bit of Alien thrown in for good measure.Įssentially, we have the exact same game that launched in 2008 with a few changes to some areas, new visuals and sound, and some decent side missions. The ship has gone silent so Issac & co (mainly Issac) have to get it up and running again before it collides with a nearby planet and work out what has gone on. So Issac Clarke a ship engineer and his crew have to land on the Ishimura a planet destroying mining ship worth millions. So we have: Issac Clarke – check! Ishimura (derelict spaceship) – check! and Necromorphs – check!ĭead Space Remake – Gameplay Walkthrough FULL GAME – No Commentary – MKIceAndFire This isn’t just an upscale of textures and new lighting like many remasters today, but everything has been redone with new gameplay elements included and a seamless ship. Here we are in 2023, and the game has been remade from the ground up, much like the remake of Mafia that I reviewed a while back. Got around halfway through it, to just after the turret section, and interest dwindled as I was playing loads of RPGs at the time that I had missed. I did enjoy Dead Space when it was released but I won’t lie I have never finished it. Post-2000, when the PS2 was released, Silent Hill 2 was released, and in all fairness, nothing has surpassed it to this day…


I kept my PS1 and loved the Resident Evil sequels as well as the Dreamcast’s Code Veronica. I went through those games so many times, and when I got my first PC, System Shock 2 and Nocturne were my first purchases, and later the original Blair Witch Trilogy.

I have always enjoyed third-person survival horror, and used to get in from work at 1am in the late 90’s, and play Silent Hill and Resident Evil on the PS1. So while those developers were off doing their new thing, Motive were tasked with remaking the original title, which first came out in 2008. The remake was announced around the same time as The Callisto Protocol, which is another deep space sci-fi game in a similar mould, by the original Dead Space creators. Dead Space Remake: This game is back in a big way.
