ENTERTAINMENT: Was ‘Dead Space 3’ Information Leaked?

By Bryan Creevy Entertainment Editor

Is Siliconera telling the truth about the “Dead Space 3” leaked information? Is Visceral Games constructing the game right now?

Recently, a source on Siliconera, a gaming website, has claimed to have obtained leaked information from Visceral Games where the source claims they are working on the production of the third Dead Space.

At the dramatic ending scene of “Dead Space 2” and the voice recording at the end of the credits, anybody could have guessed that a third “Dead Space” would be released in the future. Visceral Games even said before “Dead Space 2” was released that they had an idea, but it was all about if “Dead Space 2” was a success or flopped. They needed the funding and the fans.

With the obvious success of “Dead Space 2,” it’s imminent that there will be a third in the future, but Visceral Games has been silent.

That is until this leaked info surfaced.

(Spoiler Alert!)

When Isaac escaped from the Government Sector after destroying the Marker and Nicole’s haunting spirit along with it by flying off with Ellie, he became a wanted man in the eyes of the remaining human race. He’s been on the run trying to survive from his dementia and from the government.

Ellie has apparently found someone who can help Isaac’s situation. Her character, role, and importance are unknown, but this person who Isaac must find is on an abandoned ice planet called Tau Volantis. That is probably the biggest news of “Dead Space 3.” “Dead Space” is known for its dark and horror movie scenery where Necromorphs hide in the dark. Now, changing the environment to an ice planet, Isaac’s enemies are now hiding within the light.

Also, a cool factor being brought into the game again is isolation. In the first “Dead Space,” Isaac was on his own and cut off from everyone for the majority of the game. In the second, most of the times a door or level of a building separated him from his friends. In this game, he is completely on his own on a deserted planet.

Most fans liked the creepy feel Nicole brought to the second game by haunting Isaac through his dementia. Now Isaac’s dementia has apparently gotten so bad that he is now seeing a shadowy version of himself following him around. The leaked info called him “Shadow Isaac.” The main role of Shadow Isaac is to be a pain to Isaac. He will be a sarcastic jerk who follows him around everywhere trying to keep Isaac’s hopes down and irritate him.

All of these ideas sound amazing. If put together, they will make an excellent third installment in the series. Hopefully, Visceral Games will confirm this soon and give us all something to look forward to in the near future.
