    If you were a fan of the first two games in the series, but you thought the third game missed the mark, Awakened could very well feel like the long-awaited return of an old friend.

    Awakened is a good, dementia filled experience for anyone who liked Dead Space 3 and was left wanting more, but will do little to sway new owners into picking up the game just for the downloadable content.

    Awakened is a fun and enjoyable DLC. The gameplay of Dead Space 3 is enriched by the visions that affect Isaac and the atmosphere is very good. The cost is too high, the nature of post-final and the very short duration would be enough to reject, but in the end, Awakened is good for the fans of the series.

    Without spoiling too much, you could say that apparently Dead Space 3 didn't really end, because this Awakened-DLC could be considered to be an epilogue to the whole mess. Unfortunately, it is way too short and contains recycled content. [April 2013, p.89]

    I had a great time playing Dead Space 3 with a buddy and was very happy to have some more content to play on. The expansion was spooky and had 3 or 4 new enemies to fight with. Additionally, it had a whole new set of really fun trophies to collect.

    I had a blast with Awakened.    … Expand

    Dead Space Awakened definitely has the creep factor that the core game lacked. I was a fun experience and should not be missed if you're a huge Dead Space fan like myself. Its an interesting epilogue to the main game that had me gripped to the epic conclusion. However I do feel or the $10 price tag is a bit high considering you can run through it in an hour or two. That being said that's my only complaint for this DLC. It's still the DS I know and love and that's good enough for me.… Expand

    Marvelous story with the resurrecting of the horror-side of Dead Space.
    It's definitely just as fun as the Dead Space 3 story mode, and there    's no glitches or bugs.
    The one issue I did find with it was that it was very short but it was still a very fun COOP experience (Yes it's less scary, but I find COOP games more fun now and sort of makes the game/dlc worth the price playing with your best friend over just by yourself.)    … Expand

    Can't understand the good reviews for a cash-in DLC that could have been released with teh main game. Heck the main game isn't that good, it's a major disappointment after the first two games in the series. Skip the DLC, actually while you're at it, skip the whole thing until EA drop this pathetic chase for the FPS gamer and micro-payment pay-to-win trash.… Expand
