Don’t go into the dark and creepy space mining ship.įor those new to the franchise, Dead Space does rely on the very well-trodden sci-fi ‘setup’- a remote site/base or in this case ship has gone dark, so let’s go see what’s what, ala Event Horizon, Aliens etc… In Dead Space, a massive planet cracking mining ship, The Ishimura, has gone silent and a small team including protagonist and expert engineer, Isaac Clarke, have been sent in to get communications back up. So it should be though, as the bones the remake is built on are just as solid now, as they were 15 years ago. Its 2023 and in keeping with the current market trend, EA have seen fit to have Motive Studios “remake” Dead Space… and wow. Making Dead Space an all-time fav of my Xbox 360 generation. The sci-fi setting, the stunning graphics and immersive in-game UI all sold me on this niche genre in 2008. I just don’t enjoy them, never have…and never will? Yes indeed, confusion abounds because I love the Dead Space franchise. I don’t do scary Movies, scary TV or scary Video Games.
