I think in Dead Space 2 the plasma cutter and that thing that lays mines got me through the whole game no problems.

So the solution is to stick to one or two guns and maximize the drops. This also lets you upgrade guns much easier.

Plasma Cutter + Line Gun is a good choice.

Since you don't care about achievements (Scenester's mention of Plasma Cutter requires you to beat the game using only it), just pick what guns you want to use and have fun.

Im really bad at horror games, very jumpy, i could only play re4 in like 1 hour installments. Same for Condemned.

But that doesn't matter so much when the Plasma Cutter and Line Gun (or whatever the big Y gun that fires a horizontal beam is) are the most "fun" weapons in the series.

I've never been able to get past the first hour of Condemned. The sound design is too consistently creepy.

If turned on all the lights, and played Yakkity Sax on the system music player, I could probably get through it all just fine.
