Bengt sat down with Dead Space 3 Producer John Calhoun at this year's E3 to find out what is new in the latest installment of the popular series.

On what to expect from Dead Space 3:

"We want to make sure that everybody knows that when they play Dead Space 3, they can still play that single player, thrilling adventure that they've come to love. But now you can also play with a friend with our fully integrated drop-in/drop-out co-op system, which is a really unique way to play the game. You get new story details, new gameplay modes, and more importantly, you've got a friend who's got your back when the going gets tough against the Necromorphs."

On playing co-op:

"Our single player story actually has no AI follower. Isaac's journey in single player is completely solo. So it's much like Dead Space and Dead Space 2, where it's him against the world and his personal mission. When you play in co-op, the game dynamically changes, so you'll get new story moments... So you can start two campaigns and have two completely different experiences, one single player, and one co-op."

REVIEW. Written by Rasmus Lund-Hansen

"Lacking the pacing to make for a successful horror, and with combat mechanics not built for straight action, the game doesn't impress in either."
