Dead Space just can't catch a break.

They brought it back to life, just to kill it. Again!?

EA is the worst kind of necromancer.

That sucks I want a marvel game like I want back pain, as in not at all. Dead space was such an interesting world and idea.

I agree but like, maybe we can get a new game instead of a remake.

What I really wanted to buy was Dead Space 4.

The remake was fine, but personally I didn't understand the praise it got for basically being a slightly prettier version of the original. I want new Dead Space!

It wasn't a prettier version, it had a lot of changes to the original game, it was basically a new dead space

As somebody who completely ignored the remake, is it worth getting on sale if I already played the original?

I would say so. I loved replaying it. It feels like you remember it but it's definitely not.

Well that's why, since the remake was more than that!
