GB: "Two stellar survival horror remakes- but which one comes out on top?"
Former Visceral Games devs reveal Dead Space's marketing budget was cut in favor of Mirror's Edge because of mock review scores.
I wish EA would just release a DS2 remake. DS is my favorite horror game and DS2 is the best one in the franchise. But because DS1 failed to meet certain numbers EA scrapped the DS2 remake. SH2 remake was great rumors are Konami might be asking for another SH remake. The RE2 remake was great EA just needs to give it another try. But all they seem to do is shitty sports games that are no different from the year before. Change a few players, add different uniform colours, maybe change a team logo. Wash, rinse, repeat.
Agreed. DS was great. But DS2 was even better. Would love to see a DS2 remake, though I would love to see a DS4 even more.
The problem with EA is they make easy $ from the slight changes to their sports titles like football FC games (whatever it’s called nowadays). People just lap that sh1t up.
Comparatively, games like DS which don’t sell 10s of millions, can’t sell them team player add ons and all the like, would seem a hassle to make and unappealing comparatively. Especially when you consider that most EA non sport titles haven’t actually performed well recently.
Dark Souls 2, Darksiders 2, Dead Space 2, Death Stranding 2, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2
The Dead space remake was so good. Better than the original. Shame they won't remake 2.
I loved the original dead space but the remake I just found boring. Game design has moved on and the game really showed its age, just small area encounters repeated again and again.
I bought Dead Space during launch window and I never bought a Mirror's Edge game .
PS Plus Extra and Premium are set to lose 11 games in January, 2025, including Capcom's Resident Evil 2 remake.
All playable from October 1.
I’m going Resident Evil 2. Both are great, but RE2 Remake has such great replayability over Dead Space and I feel the survival horror elements are implemented better like options to board windows, for example.
For me Resident Evil 2, because Resident Evil 2 is one of my favorite games of all time and Dead Space isn't.
I think Resident Evil 2 is better. But Dead Space is also very very good!!
I’d say they’re both 10’s in the genre. Both do what they set out to do damn near perfectly. I’d call it a tie. RE2R does inventory management better, and the police station is top notch level design. But DSR I think has it beat in the sound design and atmosphere. I find DSR way more tense to actually play.
Just my opinion though. Like I said, both are amazing and I like both about the same.
I like the RE2 Remake more, but I did find Dead Space to be more tense and scary at times. I also like walking trough the ship over RPD. Two of my favorite horror games though.
