How to unlock the Brawler achievement in Dead Space - Definitive Guide

This one is pretty easy. Shoot out the legs of an alien and when it starts walking with its arms, run up to it and press 
and you will obliterate it with your boot and it will die. Do this 29 more times and you'll unlock the achievement.

The melee attack in this game is not very useful when it comes to killing Necromorphs. I would suggest playing on "Easy" as it’s much easier to kill enemies with your melee attacks. Use "Stasis" on enemies as it will freeze them and allow you to get up close and personal with ease. You can also weaken them by shooting off a limb with the Plasma Cutter, although this may not be doable depending on the difficulty you’re playing on and how powerful your Plasma Cutter is.

Just cut off your enemies' legs and crush them, and getting this reward will not be a problem for you.

The guys who sit and spoil the air at the head of hydroponics are easy to kill with their feet. Here are some more easy frags for this trophy.

Just shoot enemies from stasis, and then finish them off in hand-to-hand combat 
PS Here is the code for an infinite charge of stasis-
(don't forget to press pause and then enter the code)

I advise you to work on this trophy from the very beginning of the first chapter, so that you can immediately get it and forget it, because in this game killing opponents hand-to-hand is strategically wrong and entails a waste of first aid kits. At higher difficulty levels, this style of play complicates the already difficult gameplay.
In hand-to-hand combat, freezing with stasis is very helpful - in the first chapters there are stasis charges and, using them to the maximum, I received a trophy already in the second chapter. While the enemy is frozen, he has almost no chance of somehow harming you.
In order not to waste a lot of stasis on one enemy, first weaken it by shooting off one limb (in the case of dismemberers), and if your weapon does not shoot off a limb in one shot, then use it to take away the health of the second limb, so that it is easier to break it blows. Then freeze the enemy, run up from the side of the remaining limb and hit - you need to hit the limb with blows, and not the torso.
I got this trophy on maximum difficulty - it was difficult, but quite doable if you do everything right.
