    This is not a survival-horror anymore, to be fair, only the first one was truly a survival-HORROR, to be fair it's very hard to rival a "deserted" starship setting and the unknown factor it's very hard to repeat in the sequel and yet, DS2 is great in it's own merits, mostly because it brought a deeper look into the lore of Dead Space franchise.

And it's the same with Dead Space 3, this game is most an action game than it's a horror game, it does have good moments, but most of the time it's just a survival-action game, and it's not necessarily a bad thing, because this game bring a even deeper look into the lore (which is amazing btw) and also a ton of new mechanics, like the weapon creator, that is great. Haters gonna hate, but I think this is a good game and it's a shame that EA has closed down Visceral Games. In time, the first two game had movies that helped set the background before the games, it's a shame EA didn't do that for DS3. Expand

    Dead Space 3 doesn't get involved with horror category like its first 2 prequels but it's definitely a huge potential for the next game in this series (in case EA released Dead Space 4 as it's been a while since they carried out the third one).

The game continues after the ending of Dead Space 2 and the whole story plot totally links to its first 2 prequels, which helps players get back to the main trace of the series. But it's unreasonable to have the game started the same old ways as the other 2 and lasted its boredom for 8 hours fighting the same old necromorphs. From the middle to the end, there are changes in the game flow that actually rescue the whole game from causing players feel off the hook. The DLC has made itself an enormous failure for revealing the true enemy's identity of the Earth who had been designed to look like a serial killer (or at least a butcher), which mostly makes no sense to what the whole series have tried to established for the existence of this franchise. Fortunately, the last rise in the plot flow at the end of this DLC lifts up the expects of most players for the next franchise.
    Game-play and characters designs are quite fascinating. EA did make a huge innovation in the weapons upgrade bench, which opens variety of paths for players of completing missions. What nearly kills the game-play is its game mechanics. Sometimes it's difficult to lift or move objects with the telekinesis module and enemies' AI is quite low in some cases of spaces with many open doors.
    The biggest development EA has applied on to this franchise is music. The SFX and theme are totally stunning, lively and thrilling and what EA does the best is putting them at the right moments in the story flow.
    I gave it 8 since this franchise is as awesome as the first 2. The end of the game definitely opens a new future awaiting ahead of this block-buster series.

    The first two parts were games about meditative and slow horror and atmosphere. The third part has become a more active shooter with not very successful crafting. Nevertheless, the history of the game itself remained excellent and revealed to its possible maximum. Although the game was obliged to give us the fourth part, but even so, it deserves a high rating for all its efforts.

    No es el mejor Dead Space pero no es una mal juego de hecho es un muy buen juego, tiene bastante rejugabilidad con los diferentes modos de dificultad y el coop, creo que el juego merece un 8 o 7, como fan le doy un 9 por la diversión y rejugabilidad que me ha dado, pero para nada es basura como la gente dice, algunas de sus mejores características:

    No es el mejor Dead Space pero no es una mal juego de hecho es un muy buen juego, tiene bastante rejugabilidad con los diferentes modos de dificultad y el coop, creo que el juego merece un 8 o 7, como fan le doy un 9 por la diversión y rejugabilidad que me ha dado, pero para nada es basura como la gente dice, algunas de sus mejores características:

    Coop, rejugabilidad, desbloqueo de logros, acción, gráficos y diseños, el cambio de escenarios, incluso el modo de creación de armas es divertido si lo comprendes(no es tan dificil y e visto a la gente quejarse, es que no se enteran de lo que hacen y dicen que es basura por que no se toman el tiempo para entender el sistema y quieren todo fácil sin esfuerzo, entiendo que el sistema del 1 y 2 eran mejores o más "comodos" pero para nada hacen a este sistema basura, hay nuevos enemigos necromorfos , humanos uniólogos, y los robots son de mucha ayuda para recolectar recursos, el sonido el genial, la música es la mejor de los 3.

    Los aspectos negativos: no hay terror(se cambio ese especto en la mayor parte del juego excepto el dlc pero esa es la idea del juego ), la historia no es la mejor pero lo que más veo que fallo es el guión no la historia. el balanceo de botiquines y munición es malo pero aun así funciona, si lo juegas en altas dificultades o modos diferentes esto deja de ser un problema, micro transacciones(las pueden ignorar pero si están rotas si las usas).

    En resumen es un juego OK y diría que sí vale la pena jugarlo por lo menos una vez para hacerte tu propia opinión, y terminar la trilogía junto a la historia de Isaack, es una lastima lo que le pasó a visceral games y a pesar de que cometió errores en el 3 muchos no se los perdonaron y por eso no hay y posiblemente no habrá más Dead Space nunca más, y si EA metió mano pero aun así se puede ver el cariño y el amor puesto en el juego por parte de VISCERAL GAMES.
    R.I.P. Visceral Games y Dead Space gracias por esos momento inolvidables que se te graban para una vida, sin duda crearon una franquicia inolvidable que ya esta con las grandes como Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Halo etc, gracias por todo.

    Post data: Esta franquicia se inspiró grandemente en franquicias de horror o survival horror y películas como: resident evil, la cosa, silent hill, alien, system shock y si buscan algo parecido DEAD SPACE inspiró a una nueva IP que esta en desarrollo que veremos en futuros años, si les interesa se llama "NEGATIVE ATMOSPHERE"

    Заключительная часть игры уступает первым двум, но все также держит в напряжении 8/10 обидно, что разработчики закинули проект в долгий ящик.

    Если четно игра понравилась больше 1 и 2 части. Крафт интересен, визуал красив, наконец-то лор хоть как-то углубился.

    It's not a terror/horror game anymore, it's a shooting and action game because it was totally predictable and doesn't give more scares like the first or second game. GRAPHICS ARE BEAUTIFUL and great animations

    Its emphasis on the action element might be a nuisance to some of the franchise’s fans, but the game’s production values in every aspect will reward even the most doubtful gamer. [March 2013]

    Dead Space 3 brings refreshing gameplay options without sacrificing the gritty, believable universe, but scares are few and far between. [Apr 2013, p.92]

    Finishing a trilogy was always going to need bigger explosions and greater stakes – unfortunately this has come at the sacrifice of true horror.
