8 Video Game ‘Final Instalments’ That Shouldn't Actually Be The Last

6. Dead Space 3

Like Crysis before it, Dead Space was another franchise that seemed to recede in quality over each entry, despite its fantastic concept. Taking the sci-fi horror theme of films like Alien and Event Horizon and placing it in a gaming setting was a masterstroke by the folks over at Visceral Games, who despite not having time for Dead Space anymore with them being preoccupied by all things Star Wars, should probably revisit the franchise in the future. Alien: Isolation's success indicates that players are still hungry for a good sci-fi horror fix, and it's one that Dead Space used to provide better than everyone else. The weird action/horror hybrid that the series' third entry attempted was by far the franchise's low point, so any new game must have a focus on the same tension that made the first two titles so outstandingly absorbing.
