Is the new downloadable expansion for Dead Space 3 really the worst value DLC of the year? And if so does it at least offer some good scares?

The hallucination sequences are at least a break from norm; The ending is well staged, if hugely unsatisfying

Barely more than an hour in length, and almost all of that is just rehashed gameplay and visuals; Poorly told story undermines all the events of the main game

I haven't played it all the way through but so far it seems identical to the previous games if you're playing it alone. No companion in single player. These games depend heavily on scares and atmosphere.

Dead Space 3 is a multiplayer game. You can play the game on your own, as I did, start to finish, but Visceral's co-operative foundation permeates the experience throughout. In mid 2012 Ben Kuchera of the Penny Arcade Report did a nice feature on Dead Space 3 , where the developer claimed to be...

Isaac Clarke and John Carver are back in action. How can they be roaming the barren wastes of Tau Volantis after the bleak, deck-clearing finale of Dead Space 3 ? That mystery gets Awakened off to a promising start; if only the intrigue lasted through the rest of the adventure.

? What's Ellie doing while all this is going on

Sorti à l'automne 2008 sur PS3, Xbox 360 et PC, Dead Space avait d'emblée séduit les fans de survival horror. La nouvelle franchise apportait du sang neuf au genre et avait su cultiver sa propre identité.

Les graphismes grandioses; Reconnaissance vocale avec le Kinect (Xbox 360; Le coop bien ficel; Bande son

On s'éloigne du survival horror; Beaucoup moins flippant et oppressant; Perd trop en difficult

A really good game but this is the 3rd one now and to be honest getting a bit bored of it, Not that much is new, compared with the 2 games. The first 5 chapters where so boring, but after those past the game got so much better, hate that fact that there is Micro-transactions to get extra stuff since...

Won't fail to fright; Similar to previous dead space

Dead Space 3 once again puts you in the shoes of Isaac Clarke, who is called on by Captain Robert Norton and John Carver to help rescue Ellie, the woman he fell in love with in Dead Space 2.

Superb combat action, intense moments, and a killer crafting system; Co-op adds more side missions and cut scenes that are worth playing through

Poor storyline; Annoying fetch quests

Trying to think cautiously on this, but I'm still not 100% certain at which point Dead Space started focusing more emphasis on action and less on survival horror elements. Visceral Games' original Dead Space succeeded in blending both genres, which also came across in the second installment.

This game shines as a co-op shooter; some interesting boss encounters; there are a few brilliantly designed locations in this game; there's a lot of cool stuff to unlock; great cinematic ambience

The backtracking and elevator rides; as DS fans we can't deny that this is the weakest entry in the series; be it co-op or single-player it appears that any magic the series had is now lost in the murky and crowded waters of generic action games

Much has changed since Isaac Clarke narrowly escaped after destroying his second marker in Dead Space 2 , earning him the title of ‘Marker Killer', and pretty much pinning a giant target on his head for the Unitologists everywhere.

I'll just cut to the chase and immediately tell you I didn't play the first two Dead Space games. That's not much of an issue, however, as Dead Space 3 starts with a recap of what happened in the first two parts, as well as giving a short story on events that occured 200 years ago, to then bring us...
