The Leviathan boss fights are infinitely more fun now Dead Space 2 and 3's free floating zero-G has been added.īrutalising Necromorphs is an iconic part of Dead Space's cycle of catharsis: you jump scare me, I reverse-engineer you from existence, and this is how we cope with fear. My favourite thing has been blasting them point blank with the Force Gun and watching as an all-but-fleshless skeleton stands up like a chicken carcass put through one of those industrial blow dryers.

There was a lot of talk about the new horrendous-sounding "Necromorph peeling" system in advance of the remake, but besides being a strong visual indicator of weakened limbs and what to chop, blowing more bits off Necromorphs is definitely a good time. There are only so many limbs you can slice off, after all, even if the remake's weaponry does feel very good. The Ishimura isn't just a deathtrap for you (Image credit: Motive)
