I under stand this section isn’t about the game but you for sure need to watch the anime Dead Space Downfall which is a direct prequel to the main game and cool as hell and will have you wondering why melee weapons where not available in the main game too (they kind of appear in the android dead space 2 game and notably Glen Schofield make melee a big thing in Calisto Protocol). Those people are wrong they saw it as EA trying to get more money out of us (which is true they are a business after all) but it was the guys at the top of Visceral Games (stupid EA shut them down) that hand the fingers in those pies to make sure the films and comics where inline with what they where creating. When DS first came out EA released a ton of multi media stuff to build up the game and for people to get stuck in to as they become fans and honestly…people didn’t like it. Whilst I played I used tactics I built up over the years of playing the original and that got me thinking…why not let people know my tips and tricks to get the most out of Dead Space Remake. So when I downloaded the remake from my physical disc (the fact we have to do that now still annoys me) I was buzzing to play this prettied up version with a new script just for Isaac (which Gunner Write recorded 3 times to reflect injury in his scenes) and a new intensity director I went all in on hard mode and only used the plasma cutter…its one on the optimal ways to get the most out of this game I swear. Each of these I have played countless times and DS was the one that scared me the most.

If you have seen any Bear’s Den videos I’ve made or read any articles I’ve written you may be aware that there are three games in the world i consider perfect and all of them fit in to the horror category, theses games are Alan Wake, Resident Evil 4 and Dead Space. I have just finished my first playthrough of the Dead Space Remake, after waiting for years for this game to come out i had to wait a week extra to play it and that was agony.
