It should be noted that Dead Space 3's narrative unfolds the same, regardless of whether it's played solo or with a partner. However, Dead Space 3's co-op campaign isn't completely bereft of tension and features many adrenaline-pumping moments that help set it apart from its well-designed, single-player counterpart. As I played through co-op with Shacknews' Jeff Mattas, I did, in fact, notice that some of the campaign's more intense moments do feel compromised with a partner. This is a horror franchise that's been built on facing grisly creations in claustrophobic, tight spaces-not typically an experience that's meant to be shared.

I felt skeptical when I first learned that Dead Space 3 would feature a co-op campaign.
