Dead Space is a good and solid sci-fi survival horror shooter.
Not thaaat great and not really that scary (in my opinion), but I can recommend playing it anyway.
Well, but you should know it has its annoying parts: You can even die with full health directly, if you aren’t aware of some cases.
For example a situation, where you are surprisingly grabbed by a creature and unable to change the weapon (because it’s blocked at this moment), while your current one is ineffective against that enemy.
So, if you don’t know exactly, where this enemy appears (which is normally the case, if you play a game the first time) and runs around with a shitty weapon or low ammo, you are fucked. And it is simply that stupid…I thought about throwing the game out of the window after that!
Also, if you are surrounded by a horde of motherfuckers and have to go into the inventory to choose another weapon or taking a medkit and every hit of that creatures throws you out of that menu…I thought about throwing the DVD out of the window.
And another: If you come to close to a special kind of enemy, it knocks your head off…even with a full health bar. And again I thought about throwing the game out of the window, because it was only annoying.
And even if you are no choleric, after these experiences, you definitively are!
But apart from this, the game has good atmosphere and nice events.
