Disappointing!

I own Dead Space 1&2, and was psyched about the release of 3. The ability to craft my own weapons? Awesome! But then I played it. Start to finish, it took me about 20 hours to complete the main story, and all single player quests. The graphics are beautiful, and the landscapes are breathtaking in the later half of the game. The controls are as tight as ever, but the weapons feel mushy and underpowered, even with the upgrade circuits. There just isn't that same feeling of impending doom from the first games. The plot is supposed to answer a lot of questions from the series, and that it does, but the characters are kind of silly while they faff about and contribute nothing. I would recommend this if you like action games like Uncharted, but I can't get my head around the loss of the "survival horror" game it could have been.
