I don't agree that Amnesia ****s all over what Dead Space tries to do. They're completely different games. Aside from the fact things can whack you, Amnesia doesn't have combat while in Dead Space, combat is basically the game. In the end, Dead Space does what it does really well. So does Amnesia. People should get past the idea that if Dead Space can't make you **** your pants with fear, it's somehow failed. I don't think that's what the Dead Space developers were trying to do. They've made an exciting 3rd person shooter. Amnesia is the one trying to make you crap your pants and that's basically what the game's got to offer.
I've completed them both and liked them both, though for me Dead Space was the more memorable of the two. But considering Amnesia is a game by a very small developer, the comparison is not entirely fair.
