In space, no one can hear you scream “The Dead Space<\/a> remake is 85% off!” So it’s a good thing that I’m not in space, or, indeed, screaming. Yes, EA is currently selling all the Dead Space games in a way that won’t cost you an arm and a leg, including Visceral Games’ trilogy and EA Motive’s 2023 overhaul.<\/p>\n

Said remake is probably the best deal of the bunch, with EA dropping the price from $60(\u00a350) to $9 (\u00a37.50)<\/a>. The remake is a largely faithful recreation of Dead Space in the Frostbite engine. But it does add a few extras that weren’t present in the original, like full voice acting for protagonist Isaac Clarke, free-floating Zero-G as seen in Dead Space 2<\/a>, and a gnarly Necromorph peeling system that accidentally turns the Force Gun into the game’s best weapon by letting you blow an enemy’s skin off in one go.<\/p>\n

Basically, it’s great, and definitely worth that price. Sadly, EA has seemingly deigned not to give the similarly excellent Dead Space 2 the same treatment. You can still play the sequel in its 2011 form, however, and if you haven’t, you should. It’s a faster-paced, more action-heavy follow-up to the original that amps up just about everything seen in the original. It’s incredibly cheap, too; you can pick it up at just $4 (\u00a33.60)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dead Space 3<\/a> is also available at the same price as Dead Space 2. It’s nowhere near as good as the first two, frankly. But at $4<\/a> it offers some acceptable action, especially if you play it cooperatively. You can also buy the original Dead Space at $8 (\u00a37.20)<\/a>. I’m not sure why you’d do this when you can grab the remake for a few pennies more. It’s still a great game, don’t get me wrong. But the remake does pretty much the same stuff with better visuals and welcome mechanical improvements.<\/p>\n
