Because Dead Space is much more a mainstream game than games you counted. Siren and Fatal Frame exclusive games and people who don't own a console, like me, don't have a chance to try them.
Cthulhu and Amnesia doesn't provide the action that Dead Space provided, though people who are fanboys of Black OPS'ish games didn't like Dead Space as well.
You can see topics like "I got bored after 5 minutes" of playing Amnesia, and these people claim to be gamer, while they are nothing more than Plato's caveman. So, trying to understand them will not provide anything useful, that is, unless you want to put a pure action game which has no story and implemented for 10 years old head-shooters.
