EA's CEO, John Riccitiello, has stated that he believes sales in the Dead Space series will get a massive boost with the arrival of Dead Space 3. Yes, he said Dead Space 3. Here, let me write that again with quote marks: "Dead Space 3."
John Riccitiello was speaking at the Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference, where he said that he doesn't think of the Dead Space series as part of the list of "strong, growing franchises" yet because he believes it's only once Dead Space 3 comes out that the horror series will really begin to receive a boost in sales.
"Right now we've got strong, growing franchises including Madden, FIFA... Need for Speed, Medal of Honor and Battlefield - I include them as one because we're unlikely to ship them in any one year at the same time," Riccitiello began.
"There's also Mass Effect... Dragon Age... and the one that's sort of not proven that's coming later in our fiscal year, Star Wars: The Old Republic. That excludes Dead Space because I think it will probably take Dead Space 3 before we get into that five million unit cadence versus say three, four."
Again, he said Dead Space 3!

I predict dead space 8 in the far future!
