Fixed.
Looks like Dead Space 3 is not supported by Windows 8 (imagine that). Find the Dead Space 3 folder in your Origins directory and right-click on the deadspace3.exe, and set compatibility to Windows 7.
Load the game up and it works.

If you running Windows 8, make sure you set compatibility to Windows 7.
Then launch.
I'm using an SSD as well -- runs just fine.

Hi,
My DeadSpace 3 is a clean install and i have not played before!
When i start it up, my screen flickers black then it goes back to my desktop and the icon for Dead Space 3 just sits on my icon tray, when i click on it, it will go to a black screen for a split and i can hear the audio of the game in the background.
All my drivers (including graphics card) are up to date.
My PC specs:
-Windows 7
-Nvidia GTX 550TI
-Intel 15 250k
If anyone can help me out, please do!
Thanks!

I had this same problem and couldn't find a solution anywhere but I have fixed mine now. I used Nvidia Geforce Experience to change the resolution because it was trying to start in 1280x720 and when I changed it to 1920x1080 it worked straight away.
Just thought i'd post this since I there is no help from EA
Hope this helps
