It's not as much a psychological horror like Silent Hill and has more in common with Aliens or Event Horizon. Still it scared the crap out of me while being a fun game at the same time. Controls are good, sound is extraordinary (if your home system supports 5.1) and the graphics are beautiful.

I find Silent Hill 2 to be among the best horror games I've ever played, but it did have lousy controls and combat mechanics. Dead Space has neither.

In the end how you perceive it depends on how you want to be scared and in what setting. Anyway, I almost envy you who gets to play this game from scratch.

*edit*
Judging by today's standards Dead Space is definitely the better game.
