411mania - EA and Visceral Games treated us to a special behind closed door preview of Dead Space 3 at E3 this year. This looks like it will perhaps be the final journey of Isaac Clarke as he looks to put a stop to the Marker and Necromorph threat for good. The game features a radically new setting for the franchise as the game is set on an icy, wasteland planet not unlike Hoth called Tau Volantis. The live demo begins not long after Clarke and his comrades, Ellie from Dead Space 2 and new character John Carver, have crash landed on Tau Volantis. The hazardous wasteland is filled with Necromorph beasties and also heavily armed humans, likely nefarious Unitologists.
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.

Dead Space 2

...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 must be the only person who didn't want a dead space 3...
