Earlier this month I had the opportunity to go hands-on with the first four chapters of Dead Space 3, both in the singleplayer and the co-op campaigns, as well as sit down for a lengthy interview with Senior Producer David Woldman. In short, most people want to know if the game, with increasingly action based elements like human enemies with guns, rolling, and a cover system, still feels like Dead Space. I can safely say that in my experience, Dead Space 3 is definitely still a Dead Space game.
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.
Reading all these previews is really getting me excited to play the demo today.
Looking forward to the follow up interview!
Glad the action elements aren't taking away from the horror.
