Portal 2 and Dead Space 2. Dead Space 2 was an amazing sequel and got me to like Issac a bit more while Portal 2 built upon what made Portal 2 great and made it better.

I totally agree with this. Dead Space 2 gave us more weapons and necromorphs and was able to give Issac a voice and a personality without ruining him as the main character. Personally I love the way GLaDOS is developed further in Portal 2 and how you are able to look at her in a different light by the end of the game.

Fallout: New Vegas. - It brought a character back from the original series...and didn't kill him!

In the first Dead Space all I wanted to do was get off the fucking ship. I eventually did. It's like Issac is looking for trouble in Dead Space 2.

Isaac knows he's the only one who can destroy the Marker and he even says "I'm not running an more." Dead Space 2 is all about Isaac using everything he learned from the first game to fight back and stop Aegis 7 from happening all over again, especially because he's at the center of it all.

Both Dead Space 1 + 2 are about Isaac's struggles, so not that much has changed.

Well it's not really survival horror if you're not running away and, you know, trying to survive. It's more like an action game.

There's plenty of running away (like at the beginning) and escaping is definitely on Isaac's list. It's just not at the top of the list. Trust me, Dead Space will never 'try' to be survival horror in the same way Resident Evil does and ends up being an action game instead. By then you may as well leave the series to starve in the sewers.

Portal 2 wins (my heart.)

TrackMania United is another one, that game came out amazing.
