And things get worse and worse for Dead Space 3. Not only will this third part of Visceral Games’ horror franchise be more action oriented, but it has also been confirmed that the game will feature a cover system and universal ammo. Yeap, universal ammo: the one thing that destroyed the whole Deus Ex: Invisible War experience. Way to go EA.
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.
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

...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.
Nothing i haven't heard before and the cover system was shown during the demo at E3.
Dead Space of War: Isaac's Fortune
This game pretty much sums up alot of whats bad about the gaming industry right now.
Resident evil is pretty much destroyed as well. I thought theyd gone back to the old roots with revelations (which i enjoyed alot) and then they showed RE 6. Less said the better.
I'm usually pretty optimistic when it comes to developers making changes in sequels but I'm finding it difficult to get excited about Dead Space 3.
After playing the first two I don't quite see why a cover system needed to be introduced to be honest. Hope this turns out decent because DS2 was brilliant.
AI partner? cover system? universal ammo?
at this point EA might as well rename it 'Gears of Resident Space3'
