Dead Space vs Portal 2
Dead Space
Dead Space may not supposed to be much of a horror game at first (it was touted as a thriller mainly), but it certainly ended up that way. Featuring a third-person shooter gameplay, the game casts you in the role of Isaac Clarke, an engineer in a massive spaceship stranded in space that's falling apart at the seams. That's not all, the ship is filled with hideous Necromorph monsters - alien-infected crew members - that just love to jump out at you at the most unconvenient moments, startling you at every chance it gets from seemingly every vent, collapsed ceiling, cracked floor etc... well, literally the full 360-degrees. The game can be a tad bit linear but that is exactly what enabled the developers to control almost every aspect of the game from start to finish even with you in it, giving you scares that will make you jump in your seat... and sometimes out of it.Dead Space made its name as one of the most thrilling shooter game that guarantees to slowly but surely drag you into its incredibly immerse and terrifying world. If you love a game that has both action and a generous dose of scariness, Dead Space is the game you'll want to play.
Portal 2
Portal 2 follows in the footsteps of the award-winning original while continuing the story of Chell and Glados. Now with both single player and a 2-player cooperative mode, Portal 2 ramped up its game with a plethora of new, challenging puzzles, a storyline that's a lot richer than before, and more advanced and realistic physics that will govern your gameplay. Interestingly, the game also includes editing tools, allowing players to create their own puzzles which can then be shared for all to enjoy.Portal 2 is definitely a much better game in the series and if you fancy giving this franchise a chance, you might want to jump straight to Portal 2.
