It's not much, but I personally love the idea of DS3 getting Co-op.

I always thought Dead Space would have been perfect as a first person rather than third. The reason being that it would be more immersive, didn't really get why survivor horrors went third person.

So looking forward to this.

Personally, I prefer my Action Horror games to be third person (Dead Space), while my Psych Horror games (Amnesia) to be first person.

Personally I think the main problem with horror games is they are either incredibly campy (While trying to be serious), or just too over the top actiony (Haymaking boulders, or such).


So far I've only really played one horror game that has actually scared me (Amnesia), and only two games that make me feel like a bad ass in a bad situation (Dead Space and Splatterhouse). As much as I like it, I just can't put FEAR into a horror category.

You should look into the Pneumbera games. They were made by the same guys that did Amnesia. Absolutely terrifying.

FEAR started there then briskly strolled over to the other FPSes.

Really? I thought Amnesia was a Indie game, for some reason


Will look into it.

I think you have silent hill to blame for that. It is a legendary Survival horror series that is in 3rd person.

Of course, it didn't turn out so good when people tried to copy it.

also

clive barkers undying (if you can stand the old gfx, its terrifying)
call of clthulu dark corners of the earth (probably had the most intense 10 minute chase sequences ever in the first hour or so of gameplay)

Oh, it was. They're a small-time shop. They just have a good run of games.

As long as they have DS3 in the same style as DS1 and DS2 I will be happy. If Dead Space 3 ever gets canceled for this, I will be pissed.

Preferably I would like it if we got DS3, a DS FPS, and a DS Flight Sim.
