Haven't played it, but I heard the horror element wasn't that .. horrifying. I think it was Yahtzee that said it was all cheap thrills rather than true psychological scares.

1.1 - Gameplay element is where the game shines.
Best Horror game or not, the game is good.

2 - I dunno.
Dead Space was put together well in terms of audio/visual presentation, but the characters all felt like they were made of cardboard to me. There was zero connection to the silent and sans-personality Isaac, and the enemies were mindless fodder for an arsenal of crazy, powerful "tools." Fighting these things felt like a day working on the railroad to me.

I agree with you completly. The atmosphere was there, it just didn't connect with me that I should be scared...

I just feel Dead Space should be thought of as a creepy action game. It's at its worst moments when it tries to be scary, and at its best when it was a fast paced shooter/action game.

Condemned is the best there is when it comes to Horror games. Dead space was scary though, but not the best out there.

I didn't play a lot of Dead Space, my accuracy with sticks its pretty bad with 3rd person shooters, But what I did play of the game the horror and gore was sweet!
