EA Thinking Big with Dead Space 3

As Electronic Arts tries to solidify its presence in the first-person genre with new Battlefield and Medal of Honor titles, the publisher is also looking to boost its action game library considerably.

Speaking to IGN in an interview last week, EA Games President Frank Gibeau said that while he's pleased with the success Dead Space 2 has seen commercially in early 2011, he still believes there's more room for growth with the series.

Bigger than the most recent DLC severed

Xfanboy5550d ago (Edited 5550d ago )

Yes PC must be lead platform then! if not then im sure the game will still be ok!

bobrea5550d ago

Don't even want another Dead Space after the direction Dead Space 2 went in.

Muitnorts5550d ago

I have to say I'm the complete opposite. I enjoyed the original but didn't love it, seemed quite predictable but I absolutely loved Dead Space 2 from start to finish.
Can't wait to see where they take the franchise now.

bobrea5550d ago (Edited 5550d ago )

I've expressed my problems with the second game on various threads here, but basically I felt that it lost all the scare that the first game had by focusing too much on action. I had way too much health and way too much ammo for the whole game and I played on Zealot. I just hated the feeling fo being overpowered. But hey, to each his own.

@bobrea

Oh ok that's fine, opinion's opinion! Not entirely sure why but I was scared more by the second game. Or at least found myself more on edge, shame it didn't work for you.

bobrea5550d ago

It's alright haha. Clearly I'm in the minority, in this community at least. The disagrees are already piling up. I'm just glad that you're able to discuss it like a person, rather than a rabid fanboy retard.

bobrea5550d ago

Nothing is "wrong" with it, it just wasn't what I wanted/expected it to be.

belal5550d ago

i loved dead space 2, and can't wait for dead space 3!!!!

stuntman_mike5550d ago

i loved Dead space 1 and 2, but i just hope they stop with DLC exclusive to certain platforms and put it across all platforms.

ToastyMcNibbles5550d ago (Edited 5550d ago )

The only platform exclusive DLC that I can think of was Extraction for the PS3 and that kinda had to be exclusive for the PS3 version considering it was made with a motion controller in mind.

stuntman_mike5550d ago

also the "severed" DLC aint available on PC or Extraction.

KotC5550d ago

He's right Wiimote and Move are the reason why Extraction wasn't on 360.

Why Dead Space 3 Will Be the Hardest to Remake

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.

myfathersbastard1169d ago

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.

jznrpg1169d ago

Remaking 3 would need to be a reworked and somewhat changed remake as 3 was flawed in most peoples eyes and the worst entry.

Ninver1169d ago

It's the worst in the series.

Dead Space 3, A Ten Year Reunion

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."
