GamesRadar - 2013 is just over the horizon and one of the first major releases of the year is Dead Space 3. Since it’s reveal this past summer, a lot has been made about the changes to the franchise’s third entry. The online co-op, weapon upgrade system, and the setting of the icy planet of Tau Volantis have all made longtime fans wary of the next entry. But we’re here to tell you that, at least based on what we’ve played, there’s little to fear--outside of being ripped apart by the series’ trademark Necromorphs.
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.
"John Carver, a man who on the surface seems to be the bald space marine archetype that Dead Space"
He is a bald space marine, a generic one that shouldn't of even been included. If it was Ellie as a co=op partner then fair enough it makes sense after the ending of DS2.
"More open than ever"
It's a horror game, thats a bad thing
"Weapon upgrades get an upgrade"
With how much rapid fiering went on in the demo and how over powered these things seem, again for a horror game this was a bad move.
Jeez most of these points are what are turning people off Dead Space 3.
EDIT: Really well my bad
Concerning to say the least.
"Dead Space 3 - 9 reasons we’re excited for more dismemberment"
So the guys who wrote this apparently aren't aware that dismemberment is barely relevant in the next game.
