The E3 demo of "Dead Space 3" was impressive, but it also suggested a new direction for the franchise that may be less than welcome.
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

...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.
Actually - I'm willing to bet that you'd complain if DS3 would be purely horror - because given the fact that this is 2nd sequel - it would be "more of the same". So quit complaining and wait until the game is out. I'm sure it will be another blockbuster.
After what i saw at EA's conference it looked more like action and less horror. Also that gun they used really proved that by wasting lots of bullets and not conserving ammunition.
Action survival, im fine with this. I feel like thats whats made deadspace 2 so great, the instantaneous thrill. Or knowing that something is going to try and kill you but you cant stop it.
Im excited to beat this with my friend.
scripted linear gameplay from Dead Space and that nothing has changed! This is clear when people complained that Uncharted 3 was more of the same as Uncharted 2, and the reaction to God of War:Ascension has been met with the same Meh! I've seen this 4 games ago! Honestly, some gamers are an interesting bunch! A dev makes something cool and they judge and rip it to shreds on a 2 minute video!
I Honestly cant wait to play this next Feb first by myself and then with my buddy!
Everything is less scary when you are not alone...
