Cheat Code Central's Josh Wirtanen got to play the first couple hours of Dead Space 3. He left feeling a little concerned about the future of the series.
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
Dead Space 2
The Callisto Protocol

...uhm...

...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.
So he lists pros as cons....not sure about that strategy there, mate. Sure, there's maybe a less "horrific" atmosphere early in the game, but that shouldn't have you worried about the future of the series :/
Day 1 for me.
I like that there's generic ammo now, not all those different kinds.
did not like DS3.... talking about destroying franchises.
This game is a mix between Gears of Wars and Lost Planet. The addition of CO-OP was a big mistake, because the game loses it essence!! ZERO scare factor!!
Pre-order cancelled!
Gears of Space... :(
