Resident Evil remake obliterates them all. Chris on hard = I beat the game with 0 bullets left. That's true survival.Salt_The_Fries
I still say the action is too clunky, and RE 4 is just paced so much better. Both are excellent though. REremake comes with one major issue though. It replaced the greatest voice acting of all time. That should be considered a crime.

That should be considered a crime. For me the action in REmake is the best it could be in that "gameplay frame", it's the perfect balance between "old" and "new", plus the fact you have to either decapitate or incinerate zombies, or else they will become something a lot more vicious overtime is just frigging cool and encourages strategic planning and forces you to look for kerosene.
I thought Dead Space was better than any of the Resident Evil games, much scarier if played right (late at night, lights off, alone, in dark, head phones on or surround sound cranked). Dead Space 2 is such a leap over the first game, I think this series has more potential in the long run. Plus I liked Dead Space Extraction much more than I did the Umbrella/Darkside Chronicle games. Plus Capcom has been in real hit-or-miss funk for the last couple years, and many of their talents staff bolted and created Platinum Games.
Just finished DS1 and it's definately a lot scarier than RE4-5 and has some really fun combat. But what gives the edge to RE in my eyes is the level design, setting and mission structure, Dead Space is like a space station repair manual that you go through page by page, it can become tedious.
If we're talking about the what the latest of each series have to offer... Gameplay -> Dead Space Horror -> Dead Space Lore -> Resident Evil Characters and Story -> Resident Evil Overall I'll have to go with Resident Evil when taking everything into account. Both series's gameplay is getting quite tedious for me, but the setting of RE seems more interesting. I prefer have the limited power and helplessness feeling of the older RE games offer, whit that being said, I'm not really forward to either series.
My favorite series is RE, but DS has been kicking it's rear since it arrived and it wont change until capcom decides to do something else, but looking at revelations it doesn't look like it.
Having played RE4 and some of Dead Space, it seems like RE 4 is more strategic and has more interesting level design (partly due to Leon being able to move around more). Whereas Dead Space is way superior in presentation, and has better shooting in some respects.
DS, it feels more tense and frightening than both RE4&5. I also love the settings in DS, Derelict ship and colony in space>>>>> mutant infested villages.
Open areas are terrible in DS2 considering how fast some necromorphs can move compared to your slugish turning speed, you almost need coridors and choke points to survive in the harder difficulties "on zealot for my first playthrough and I often find myself running to the nearest hallway to survive the onslaught of monsters that 2 shot me.Jynxzor
Admittedly I haven't finished DS1 so my opinion could change but corridor shooting always equals a no no for me personally.
