So who else has seen the MULTIPLE Mass Effect 2 advertisements during the Vikings - Saints game? I think its awesome that BioWare and EA have decided to advertise to the mainstream. I think this is a very good call, as its a game that deserves all the exposure it can get!
Plus the advertisements are giving me goosebumps for Tuesday!
So excited, I can't wait!
Mass Effect 2
Game » consists of 21 releases. Released Jan 26, 2010
After a violent death by an unknown force and a timely reanimation by the human supremacist organization Cerberus, Commander Shepard must assemble a new squad in the seedier side of the galaxy for a suicide mission in the second installment of the "Mass Effect" trilogy.
Mass Effect 2 advertisements during Vikings vs. Saints game!
Saw an ad for it a couple of times last night which featured Shepard, Grunt and Thane shooting at some dudes. Shepard shoots them with some big dimensional rift type gun thing, the enemies disappear and end up inside a toilet.
I was confused, I can tell you. Made the game look a bit like Duke Nukem or something.
Just saw it. It was awesome!!! Even my step-dad said it looked cool and he don't like video games lol. And what music was that? I want to put it on my Ipod now lol.
"This game deserves to be bought by everyone on the planet, I hope they keep advertising it! Can you believe it's only 2 days away? "
I can't. I'm going to be begging my parents to let me get it at the midnight opening.
" Just saw it. It was awesome!!! Even my step-dad said it looked cool and he don't like video games lol. And what music was that? I want to put it on my Ipod now lol. "It was "Heart of Courage", by Two Steps From Hell.
And I will agree that it was quite awesome.
Loved the Mass Effect 2 halftime stats, as read by a clearly confused Joe Buck. I will say though, I'm not sure who the ads are for, as I don't see the NFL demographic and Mass Effect demographic crossing over that much. The ads seem like they would be confusing for anyone not already in the know.

" @Damien: But the ads were awesome and a lot of guys who watch NFL play games... maybe they'll see how awesome it is and get interested. @JoeRiccadonna said:" @xyzygy said:LUCKY!

Hope so. But I doubt it.
I don't have cable so i'll just have to youtube the add later. But... I'm still crazy excited for the game!
"Could you specify which ad you're referring to. Maybe even insert the video into one of the posts or something cuz I can't find anything that I haven't seen yet. Perhaps it is just a video they recycled from before. Based on your guys' hype and happiness, I hope not. "
It's just the launch trailer. I'm just exicted I saw it on my TV screen and got glimpse of what the game will look like on my tv screen.
"That was the gamestop created ad, those are always horrible attempts at humor that tell nothing about the game."

Reeeeeallly. Hmmm, it was on Australian TV and at the end had the PRE-ORDER TODAY AT EB GAMES FOR UNLOCKABLE BULLSHIT thing. I know Gamestop owns EB but that's fascinating that they don't change the ad for international usage. Hmm very interesting, thank you for the info.

Here is the song in the trailer we're talking about. "
Can't find the damn song on itunes.........
I believe that's because the albums aren't sold commercially, but I could be wrong." @VWGTI said:

I'd try Limewire or some such if you don't have any luck.
I just looked at the midnight release list...they are doing it at the other Gamestop in town but not the one I reserved it at....DAMN. Yeah, those ads got me pumped!
" @Lukaz said:Ahh okay. I was kinda hoping for something new and exciting but I guess I just got exciting. That's nothing to complain about though since the launch trailer is fucking awesome. And I know what you mean about watching it on the big screen. I downloaded the trailer and transferred it to my 360 via USB key. It looks amazing."Could you specify which ad you're referring to.
