While trouncing through both single-player and co-op, AusGamers contributor, Naren Hooson, also cornered (in a dark, scarily lit place, mind) Dead Space 3 executive producer, Steve Papoutsis, to ask him about all the new additions to their survival-horror opus, and what they mean for fans and other gamers alike.

Papoutsis makes no apologies for co-op, going so far as to say that he hopes "that people [will] look back and think of Dead Space 3 as a game that was very innovative in the co-op space". He reiterates, however, that co-op is optional and also talks in detail about the size of the new environments, why Isaac is facing human enemies here and much, much more.
