Analyst claims Dead Space 2 is ‘significantly outselling’ original

Sterne Agee analyst Arvind Bhatia’s claimed that Visceral horror sequel Dead Space 2 has got off to a cracking start at US retail.

According to recent channel checks, Bhatia notes that the sequel is “significantly outselling” its predecessor following its release in North America earlier this week. Not too shabby.

The inaugural Necromorph-dismembering epic launched back in October 2008 to critical acclaim, though its performance at retail initially proved a little sluggish. However, the game eventually topped the two million sales barrier back in August last year.
