Something truly special about the original Dead Space was taking the classic over-the-shoulder combat formula from the Resident Evil franchise and making it more action-oriented. Intense horror scenes like this make Dead Space an incredible example of next-generation horror video gaming, unlike its predecessors. Even though you cleared the area behind you, you never know when a monster might strike. Just when you think you're about to be in the clear, you hear the shriek behind you as you realize you're flanked from both ends. You watch as each blast takes off a pound of flesh, tendons, or even bone. Every hair on your body is standing as you frantically fire forward, the haptic triggers giving some resistance as you fire your weapon widely toward the threat. If you're playing Dead Space on the PS5 as I did, you're getting haptic vibrations as smoke spurts from a pipe running along the hall as you aim your plasma cutter forward. Sounds echo from the walls ahead as you can't help but grip your controller tighter as you hear the shrill screams of the necromorph monster coming around the bend. The eeriness of the near-derelict planet-cracking vessel USG Ishimura lingers as the main character, Isaac, paces forward through a tight industrial hallway.
