Dead Space 3 Co-Op Confusion

Hi all,

I am very confsued about the Co-Op option. Is the campaign with co-op and single player the same or are they two seperate campaigns?

The solo and co-op campaign are the same with some differences. In co-op the puzzles are tougher, the enemies are more aggressive and sometimes more of them. Also there is a lot dialogue with Carver that you only get in co-op. Also some side missions are only available in co-op. Plus you experience the game differently if you are playing as Carver in co-op because of his dementia.

So you go through the same campaign, but it plays a LOT different. Excellent replay value stacked with weapons crafting.

Cool nice, thanks for the explanation. I want to pick it up tonight... Can I just find a random stranger on the ps3 network to play with me or does it need to be a buddy of mine that owns the game?

Can the co-op be played on the same console? or is it an online only thing?

Not sure if it has a matchmaking system.

Online only...

How I miss the old days of MP where you could chill at a friend's house and both play the game. You weren't required (read: FORCED) to play online.Kravyn81

Yeah, that's what I was thinkin'. My brother lives next door to me, and I thought it might be fun to team up on this.

In co-op you also do some other missions that are connected to your partner through the campaign.

1st of all, Red Dead Redemption gets awesome after the slow start.

I didn't get Dead Space 3. I had planned to because I liked the first 2 games very much. But I saw it got the lowest review of the series, so I figured I'll wait for the price drop to play it. I'm still having fun with Ni no Kuni anyways.

I pre-ordered it, but it hasn't arrived by mail yet. I have friend that got it last night he is raving about how great it is so far. And reviews are hit and miss. I has 9.75 from GameInformer and 9.5s from JoyStiq and Polygon, but mostly 7.5s and 8s. You will really have to experience it for yourself...

Most every one agrees that if you loved the first two you want to finish the trilogy though.
