      yeah I and my brother did the same we played the trilogy when my parents were on weekend we played it on a big tv with surround sound late at night with lights turned off it is something really amazing
      I was really sad when they disbanded the visceral games I was waiting for the sequel all these years Calisto protocol was fine but it wasn't really what I wanted hope this game sells so we get sequels

      This game is one of the all time great horror games. I love this one, Alien: Isolation, and the earlier Doom where you could only have the gun or light, but not both, in your hands at any one time. Each for different reasons, but all three had points I had to stop playing because it unnerved/frightened me so much at times, just truly great horror experiences.

    One of the most terrifying things I remember about the necromorphs was how they can randomly change up their speed at which they approach you. Usually they slowly shamble towards you so you have a false sense of security thinking you have plenty of time to take them out, but then they suddenly break into a full on sprint and rush you

    I'm looking at this the same way I looked at the RE1 remake and how much it changed and kept the same. Letting you explore the Ishimura fully, the weapon changes, Isaac fully voiced, new cutscenes, the gravity control from the sequel, but keeping the aesthetic and story intact with a (mostly) brand new cast. AND new enemies and a new secret ending? Legit worth grabbing.

    Hey Karak, I just want to say I really appreciate how concise your videos are. I have a friend trying to grow a small channel and he often bounces his thoughts off of me. In the process of trying to find what works and doesn't I've ended up looking at the content I enjoy most through a more critical lens. I keep coming back to your channel for an assortment of examples they can pull from for a variety of reasons. Though the thing I feel really rings true with your channel is it feels like you've taken the time to work on a script and distilled it down to the most succinct version of itself. That and your more humble personality really resonates. Anyway, thanks for content man, always love seeing a new video drop.

    Dead Space 2008 was the first game I ever preordered. Despite next to no hype surrounding it (that I knew of at the time, at least), it just looked unique, and I had never really PLAYED horror games before. I absolutely loved it.
    Motive earned my faith and trust with Squadrons, and it made this remake one of the three games I've preordered in the last five years. I am deeply excited, and very glad to see reviews have been so positive. This is what passion and talent can do.

    I distinctly remember playing Dead Space when it first came out. I remember rolling my eyes when EA said they were publishing a Survival Horror game - I half expected it to be terrible, so I decided to rent it from a local Blockbuster.
    I played it alone in the dark. It was honestly a terrifying experience… and I had lots of experience with survival horror games at that time.

    I had already pre-ordered it for $41 a month ago, so I'm just here to hear the review. The OG game is still as good as it ever was (even better on PC), but even six or seven years ago it was starting to show its age with many of the textures. While I am getting a bit tired of the remaster/remake trend, this game kind of needed the visual upgrade.

    The greatest 'low-key' appeal of the original was the ship itself - the Ishimura. A ship that actually felt like a ship, coherent, logical, functional. With the remake it now feels gargantuan in size, you're dwarfed by the immense engineering which fires out spectacularly as you restore function. Fabulous remake, keeping the claustrophobic desperation, quality voice acting and internal logic. Now we have some of the best use of lighting I've ever seen in a game. 9/10

If they continue forward, remaking the other two games, I'll have warnings (I felt the games got worse, successively, and I was done by the time I finished DS3), but this one, for new players, looks fine.

Nope, she was enthralled, called out enemies, and gripping onto my arm at certain points... It was one the funnest 2 day ever... Now, scary movies and games are just our thing... We love them...

    I injured myself playing the original. I sat down in a gaming chair and played the first 3-4 hours straight through, and must've tensed up so much, that when I stopped, I couldn't move. My back was very badly hurt. Took five days to be able to move normally again, and I recall having to call off from work a couple of days. That's how scary that game was at the time.

    Great review ACG! I am loving this game! I've been trying to analyze why I love this game so much more than its spiritual cousin Callisto Protocol. I can't quite put my finger on it. Both are visual juggernauts and I did actually like the Punch-Out aspects of CP. Perhaps it's just the atmosphere?What a year in that we get the horror classics Dead Space Remake and Resident Evil 4 Remake within mere weeks of each other. Now, if Silent Hill 2 Remake comes out in 2023 I'll die a happy horror gamer.

    Per your comments about music stinger being off a little - if I remember correctly in the original Dead Space, the player would not hear a combat stinger until a Necromorphs detects you, not the other way around. Makes it a little more scary since it can happen with your back turned. Hopefully they kept this as I thought it added a little to the “WTF” factor.

    Another awesome review by ACG. I recently went through the Dead Space series on backwards compatibility as I wanted to remind myself how great these games were. I appreciate that they left the heart of the game and made improvements (tighter controls, better graphics, more content). Just not 100% that I want to pay FULL RETAIL for the remake. On the one hand, this would have been insane if the game(s) had not been backwards compatible as the nostalgia alone would sell it. Some games deserve a remake or even a "fresh coat of paint" remaster. On the other hand, you could look at it as a "cash grab" in a way with repackaging and reselling a highly popular series to an existing fan base and with the hopes of expanding it. For me, it is a wait for sale.
