Ill go with dead space since its acutally survival horror. Also with the new gameplay aspect annouced to be something like gears. I could care less about RE5 more.
RE5 doesn't even seem to work to be survival horror. It does not seem to try to create a sense of loneliness and impending doom, unlike Dead Space, which seems to be a third-person version of System Shock 2 but with better graphics and different enemies.
The Resident Evil series has gone from survival horror to pure action. They should just re-skin it and debut it as a new IP. I wouldn't be surprised if RE5 released to great reaction but grew a backlash over time and RE6 becomes a return to its roots game.
Dead space for both. Resident Evil will flop, aside from graphics improvements it looks to be nothing new. Dead Space is just.. awesome. One of my most anticipated games.
Deadspace by far. RE series is in no way scary anymore, its fun as hell to play but the actual horror essense of the series is completely gone, and because of that the freshness and fear that Deadspace will bring will make the game more fun to play for me.
Although Dead Space will most likely be scarrier (Resident Evil 4 was kind of too ridiculous to be scary), RE5 will definitely be more fun if it's anything like RE4. My most anticipated game for next year by far.
I think Dead Space looks freaking awsome right now... RE5 has been very underwhelming to me lately (I mean seriously... you cant even change the animations from RE4)
Dead Space is definitely more terrifying, RE5 isn't surivival horror. However as much fun as I had playing Dead Space, just for the fact that RE5 has co-op may make it more fun than Dead Space. We'll see though, also the controls in Dead Space>>>>>>>>>RE5
I have to say befor eplaying Dead Space I never played a resi before so loved it. Its a brilliant game graphically and gameplay also has a good load of extras. But having just finished all of the resi's on Gamecube I cant wait for the new one even though it has moved towards afction there's still so much that has already been done in the universe( bar the movies of course) that it can't be a bad game plus the replayability factor with mercenaries mode and coop which has always been an opportunity in the sereis.
Dead Space is an amazing game one of my all time favourites but is it going to beat resi? No, Jill's death is just too enticing and the controls are loverly.

where did you dig this thread from lol, anyways since dead space is out and we have played RE5 demo, its clear dead space is better
Wouldn't be wise to play both games first? Nonetheless, judging from the demo, I'd stay with Dead Space. Felt more polished. IronBass
Dead Space was probably the most polished game of last year, saw very few jaggies, almost no glitches and the game was absolutely beautiful and the environments kept you on edge the whole time visuals and sounds.

Not only that. The camera/shooting/moving mechanics were perfect. I needed no time to felt extremely comfortable with the controls. With RE5 I'm having trouble, and I think I will need a little time to get used to it.
Definitely Dead Space all around. It was nice not playing as a super special agent that can't move while shooting. It was also and all around scarier game.
[QUOTE="404-not-found"]Well, you're comparing a horror game, with your generic shootan. Which wins? P.S. It's not RE5. Dead Space is hardly more an "horror game" than RE4/5, and hardly are RE4/5 "generic shooters".

Not that's it's any less horror than the originals. They were so scary with their giant spiders and mutant lizards :|.

I dont feel left out, I think people need to realize that RE fans play for the fiction and story and the gameplay is really like an added bonus

I honestly will be shocked if Resident Evil 5 could top dead space for me. After romping through the campaign, I absolutely had to go back to it again on a harder difficulty. I beat it twice in like 4 days, which is a big deal for me because I almost NEVER do that. I'm already dying for a sequel. I'll definitely try Resident Evil 5 though, anything that creates this much buzz I'm definitely going to look into. But seriously, from a horror and fun standpoint, Resident Evil 5 has a lot to live up to (at least in my books).

That is the only bit I ever jumped at and I'm only 20 now. I don't understand the people who level the complaint that its not "scary" anymore.
