$10 extra for XSX version kills it for me. Hate when developers upcharge for the next/now current version of the game.

I think I'd rather pick up the Dead Space remake than this (as someone who played Dead Space 1). Which is kind of sad and disappointing.

I might pick this one up when a Steam key gets down to $10-15 or something.

I actually really enjoyed this. It's more melee focused over Dead Space

Im holding out for this and a few others to hit $15-20 on ps5. Id like to play this at some point but am def not in a hurry to play it. If i have to wait till black Friday for this to be $15-20 on ps5 then thats when I'll get it. I feel like there are too many other big games coming out and they will probably drive the price of this down to that range sooner than later though just to clear shelf space

This game is a turd. Wait for it to get on game pass or ps plus collection. Not worth any money.

With all the hate for this game I'll put this out there. Graphics for Callisto are a lot better than dead space remake. It's more cinematic and much higher quality production if you prefer that. The downside is the controls which can get annoying but I relied more on guns and glove throw so it helped get me past relying on melee all the time. I also like how there are 2 difficulty settings. Definitely not worth the full price but $20-25 is about right imo.

Xbox version isn't smart delivery? I think $20 would be fair for the XSX and PS5.

+1. I gave up on the gameplay half way in and have to rush to beat the game. Game does have some good point but mostly bad and repetitive gameplay. After beating the game I uninstalled and never touched it again. Unlike Dead Space series I have at least 2-3 run with every game and still happy with the time I spent

I am just pasting the same thing I posted on another deal for this game, because it's not a good game.

I bought this for $35. It's not worth more than $15. You have one combo throughout the whole game. Guns are only there as support. It's very much melee focused. It's also super freaking easy. You just hold one direction to dodge the first attack (it doesn't even have to be the correct direction), then hold the opposite direction for the second attack, then do the same for the third attack and then you get your turn to hit. It's that same formula for every enemy (except the end boss and the enemy that crawls around fast) during the whole game. There are only a few different enemy types. You can shoot a critical point on the enemy during your combo if you want. Unless you're just terrible at games, it's really hard to ever get hit. It's a very pretty game, though. I'll give it that. I'd give this a 5/10. It's Dead Space-like, but Dead Space is significantly better. This also isn't scary at all. There's all this build up, like you're about to get a jump scare, and then they show you an enemy way up ahead, so as not to actually scare you. It's really lame.

At most, it's a $15 game. It's not good.
