Hidden containers and secret rooms contain the rarer stuff, but Necromorphs often drop resources (which acts as a type of in-game currency) that you can use to build other tools and items.

The best way to find components is through exploration.

You have a lot of flexibility in tweaking these weapons anyway you want. Or you can add an ammo-box attachment that’ll automatically reload your gun once you reach the bottom of the clip. One of my favorite combinations early on was a rivet-shooting chain gun that I placed on top of a shotgun.ĭifferent barrel tips, a variety of attachments, and modifiers known as circuits can alter the way your gun behaves - a generic plasma cutter can become a lethal killing machine by adding a few damage circuits to its frame. If you attach the military engine, you can create standard weapons like machine guns, revolvers, and a sniper rifle. These tools dictate what kind of firepower you’re using. You start by picking a compact frame (one-handed) or a heavy frame (two-handed) and choosing an upper tool and a lower tool. The limb-chopping combat receives a facelift with the new workbenches, which you can use to craft your own weapons. But if you’re willing to dig in, you’ll find an entertaining shooter that will scare the pants off you.

So I’ll make this simple: If you didn’t enjoy this change in Dead Space 2 at all, you won’t find a lot to like in Dead Space 3. Much like with Capcom’s Resident Evil games, many fans mourn the transition of Dead Space from a slow-paced and eerie tale to a heavy emphasis on action and leaning on large, scripted sequences to tell its story.

Fighting alongside him in the optional cooperative mode is John Carver, a soldier who has his own reasons for hunting down the origin of the Markers, spiraling structures that create the monsters out of corpses. Available today for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC, Visceral Game’s third entry of its sci-fi themed survival-horror franchise takes hero Isaac Clarke through a galaxy-hopping adventure as he tries to stop undead creatures known as Necromorphs once and for all.
