GamerNode Managing Editor Dan Crabtree writes: "Isaac dated survival horror. Then he started coming home late, his space miner’s suit smelling like a different genre, and still survival horror stayed quietly by his side. He’d been fooling around with action horror. It never got bad enough to give up, but the phone calls came less frequently and the fights got louder. One night, Isaac came home with his friend John, pulled survival horror aside, and asked the unthinkable."
If EA and Motive Studio plan on remaking all the main Dead Space entries, they have to change a lot of what made Dead Space 3 so divisive.
Simple, do not bother with a Dead Space 3 remake. Rather have a new entry for Dead Space.
Yeah I agree. Make a dead space 3, but have an original story/setting. They’ve proven they can do the game justice, and I think they could evolve 2 in a good direction, keeping a similar tone. I’d love s Dead Space 2 and 3 though. The remake was fantastic. Top tier remake, up there with RE2.
Remaking 3 would need to be a reworked and somewhat changed remake as 3 was flawed in most peoples eyes and the worst entry.
WTMG's Kyle Nicol:
"Was Dead Space 3 really that bad?
Well, it’s a complicated question. Dead Space 3 is undeniably the weakest of the trilogy. It’s a game that deviates so far from the original formula, that it throws a lot of what made Dead Space special in the first place out of the window. Although, where it does make up for it is one of the best cooperative shooters on the market, even after all this time. Do I recommend playing this game ten years later? Hell yes. But make sure your expectations are in the right place. It has a lot of problems that bring it down."
With the upcoming Dead Space Remake, we replay and rank the original three games.

...Lost Planet 3?
They need to seriously continue this ip with a new entry. Even if it's just another movie I don't care I love everything about this game.
I'm less and less interested in this franchise, honestly. While it's really cool to do big action sequences with strong shooting mechanics, it was nicer to me to have a game focused on claustrophobic, slow-creep horror.
