* AuthorsSavingThrow: Generally speaking, if a mechanic or presentation choice was revised for ''Dead Space 2'' and was considered an improvement, the remake uses the version of it from the sequel.
** Most immediately obvious is that Isaac is no longer a SilentProtagonist, which was dropped in the second game.
** Zero G sequences uses the personal thrusters from the second game, rather than the magnet boots and jumping from the first. The remake even adds controls for rotating Isaac on the Z-axis, adding even more control over his movement.
** Unrelated to ''Dead Space 2,'' the much-criticized turret section where Isaac recalibrates the Ishamura's asteroid defense cannons was completely reworked with brand new mechanics.
** Kinesis combat has been ''massively'' improved, with a snappiness to it to match its implementation in ''Dead Space 2''. Now, fan blades, poles, enemy limbs, stasis canisters, and more can be used at a moment's notice to deal out damage to your enemies in stark contrast to the original game's sluggish Kinesis, which was solely meant to be used for puzzle solving and environmental manipulation rather than combat.

In the end, however, ''Callisto'' was met with a mixed reception due to its linearity, repetitive combat, and lackluster PC port, leading to decent, but not stellar, sales. On the other hand, ''Dead Space'' was met with universal acclaim for its faithfulness to the source material, strong technical stability, and updated mechanics and presentation. This would lead to exceptionally strong sales for ''Dead Space'', leaving it the winner.
