Just finished Dead Space remake and have begun playing Dead Space 2. The remake is really phenomenal. It's proper horror, with amazing ambient sounds that keep you on your toes, and clever ammo system that kept me switching to weapons that I didn't care about. The metroidvania touch is a great change from the original, making revisiting older sections rewarding as you progressed in the game.

DS2 on the other hand feels pretty life less after playing the remake. I'm aware it's a well regarded sequel, but it's much less scary and almost a different genre of a game. I think I'm half way through and I don't think I'm able to immerse much into it. It's probably a great game from its era and seems less exciting in front of the remake.
