Review: 'Dead Space' remake gets everything right


Dead Space remake updates the classic game perfectly. — Electronic Arts/TNS

The original "Dead Space" is 15 years old. It arrived two console generations ago, back in PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 times, long before the hyper-realistic, immersive visuals of the current era. But even back then, the game was ahead of its time.

You realize that early in the "Dead Space" remake, which was released last month. Naturally, the game’s been given an huge ultra-high-definition coat of paint, and the end result looks visually arresting. But only slight tweaks to the game have come other than that – and that’s in large part because the original "Dead Space" still holds up today.
