Subject: I'm worried about what Dead Space 3 is going to play like.

If anyone has been keeping up with it's recent developments you may know what I'm talking about.
The previous two Dead Space games have always been presented as survival horror games with you the protagonist (Isaac Clarke) fighting of a Necromorph foe single-handedly.

Dead Space 3 on the other hand is being presented as a 'action-horror' game and features co-operative play and now Kinect voice commands.

Following on from what EA wants from Dead Space franchise I am now worried about whether Dead Space has lost it's original charm and become another EA money milking machine.

What I mean by money milking is that the original Dead Space was not condemned to death due to having small-scale sales, whereas the latest iterations have to reach certain targets.

Thoughts?

Maroon 5 is awesome. Deal with it.

Gears of War.

By that I mean EA is dumbing down the horror element to the game and beefing it up with action and low difficulty. Even if Visceral is making the game.

Gears of War: Lost Planet.

By that I mean EA is dumbing down the deep space element to the game and freezing it up with snow and giant monsters. Even if Visceral is making the game.

Why does it "need" to become "more broadly appealing"? This is the problem with EA; they're trying to make every game appeal to everyone and that will never be the case. Instead, what they end up doing is converting every genre into a generic action game that no one cares for.

If I ever get AIDS, I'm going to sleep with another AIDS person so my AIDS cancel each other out, or I'm going to make the AIDS I already have worse.

Dead Space 3 is what Resident Evil 5 was to the series.

It looks fun and creepy. I mean, it's Dead Space.

It's interesting that you people can never be pleased. If the game changes too much: it's terrible. Too little? It's terrible. You literally can't win. You'll hate anything for any reason.

I'll play the game, enjoy it, and laugh at all you immature idiots as you continue to -blam!- and moan on the Internet. It will suck to never be pleased.

Time to blame EA for everything then.

What if it's a good game? I wonder how much praise people will give EA then.

God forbid people disagree with your opinion. There must obviously be something fundamentally wrong with them.

None, they will praise Visceral, because the cognitive dissonance is strong with these ones.
