The third Dead Space takes place on a lonely, snow-blasted planet in the back end of deep space. The only things likely to hear you scream will be licking their lips, or whatever it is they have instead of lips. So it would be a waste of time to play Dead Space 3 in the light and warmth of the daytime. Instead, wait for night, turn down the central heating and get ready to ruin some underwear. You needn’t go it alone, though. In addition to the series’ main character Isaac Clarke, a friend can join you as his new buddy John Carver. Co-op mode unlocks a bunch of new scenarios, as the pair go increasingly mental in the icy, Necromorph-infested wastes, trapped in a blizzard of gizzards.
