Dead Space 3 brings Isaac Clarke and merciless soldier, John Carver, on a journey across space to discover the source of the Necromorph outbreak. The ice planet holds the key to ending the Necromorph plague forever, but first the team must overcome avalanches, ice-climbs, and the violent wilderness.

Dead Space 3 epitomizes everything that's wrong with the videogame industry right now. It's also a pretty good game, which is what makes this disappointment more sour than say, the travesty that is Aliens: Colonial Marine s.

Sigh; Game is almost completely devoid of genuine scares or terror; Difficulty scaling is wonky; Cover system and gun battle sequences are out of place and not suited to Dead Space's controls; Story feels like it's treading water, doesn't take any risks and has a bizarre ending.

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.

Dead Space 3 is, of course, the long awaited third iteration of a series that began life as a survival horror game and ended with something notably less fear inducing, but still thoroughly enjoyable.

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

For its third entry, EA's popular Dead Space saga has broadened its canvas. Where the previous two games took place on a drifting spaceship and a stricken colony, Dead Space 3 mixes up its traditional claustrophobic horror with big action movie sequences, a larger cast and a story that hops from a...

A truly epic 15 hour story; Freedom to create your own perfect arsenal; Co-op play is very cleverly handled

Not as scary as previous Dead Space games; Hunting around for crafting resources is annoying; Some repetitive mission design

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

It's hard to fault Dead Space 3 overall, because it offers so much for so many different types of gamer. The microtransactions present an interesting dilemma for the industry and consumers, but the game does a great job of balancing these out with superb gameplay pacing and difficulty settings that...

+ An all-round explosive; fun experience; + Great weapon crafting feature; + Difficulty settings make it more about survival; + Co-op is a great addition
