I just started playing Dead Space 1 again on a new plasma tv.
Feels like a different game... 8.5/10.
Dead Space 1 is seriously underrated game. Definitely one the best modern survival horror games, and leaps and bounds better than Resident Evil has been for years.
Well it is rated very highly and said to be one of the best modern survival horror games. However it is one of the worst survival horror games I ever played. It felt like RE4 but in outer space to me. Too repetitive and not enough emphasis on the "survival" mechanics (oversimplified mechanics, it's just a shooter) or the "horror" aspects (predictable, not very atmospheric, you're an armed juggernaut throughout the game). Monsters, flickering lights, and extreme violence don't automatically equal a horror game in my opinion.
Yeah, Dead Space 1 wasn't really a survival horror. It was fun though and on my first playthrough I finished the whole game with nothing but the plasma cutter.
Talking about survival. I played some Miscreated over the weekend but so far I'm not too impressed. It was just released in early access and is an early alphas, so I won't be quick to judge as DayZ has been in development for years and still has an insane amount of issues even though I still like to play it a lot.
Anyway, so far I'm pretty disappointed with most games this year. Hopefully, Dragon Age Inquisition will deliver as otherwise I'll have to declare NBA 2k15 as my GOTY.
^What difficulty did you play on? I played on the hardest setting and it was definitely survival based. I remember getting to the final boss with no ammo,and having to load a prior save in order to better prepare myself.

Normal mode. I'm sure supplies are more scarce on harder difficulties and you die easier, but that doesn't alleviate the main gameplay problems I have with it unfortunately (repetitive environments and gameplay, mechanics are too straightforward for a survival game in my opinion).
I do agree with Zojokkeli about Resident Evil though. Code Veronica wasn't bad, Zero just wasn't great, and RE4-RE6 are more shooters than survival horror (like Dead Space). Some of the modern survival horror titles I like are Underhell, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series (especially with mods), Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Penumbra series, and if you want to count them then Fallout 3/New Vegas too (especially with mods).

I enjoyed Dead Space 1 but that was a long time ago - NBA2k15 as GOTYAbove Dark Souls 2, Divinity: Original Sin, Middle Earth , Shadow of Mordor, Mario Kart 8, even gimme PC Titanfall over NBA2K15 (but to each his own).
And actually it's turning into a collection
I kinda contribute Dark Souls 2 drawbacks to the change of the team but with Miyazaki in charge of Bloodborne it's safe to say that's the most anticipated game next year followed closely by the new Silent Hill
