It’s quite clever, although trying to get rid of limbs can prove problematic if you try stomping on them thanks to poor hit detection, it’s a small problem but one worth noticing. That’s not the case with Dead Space, they require limbs to be cut off but blowing their head off can result in them changing forms or unleashing smaller aliens to attack. In most horror games, decapitating your enemies would usually result in them dying. There’s also no health bar other than the bar’s on the back of Isaac, it’s also impossible to get lost thanks to a waypoint line that you can get to show up by clicking the right thumbstick.

In Dead Space, players step into the role of engineer Isaac Clarke – an ordinary man on a seemingly routine mission to fix the communications systems aboard a deep space mining ship. Set in the cold blackness of deep space, the atmosphere is soaked with a feeling of tension, dread and sheer terror. Fancy a trip to a mining ship full of hostile aliens? You should do.
