The story is going around like wild fire this morning: EA focused-tested Dead Space, and it was too scary! They have to fix this to reach a bigger audience! The easy headline about the game being “too scary” and that’s why co-op was added is being repeated by any number of video game blogs, and fans are upset that what they loved about the Dead Space series is being taken away. it’s a valid complaint about a series that is supposed to be based on horror.
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

...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.
lol, internets wrong again.
Also said, that's why they added co-op, but earlier this week they said co-op was supposed to be in the first game. That made me question everything I was reading about it. Now it makes sense.
Dead Space never needed Co-op. It's a nice addition but not in a game like DS.
lol seems like it, especially Rumor led ones
what happend to single player games anymore? Not trying to be anti-social or anything but come on!
