PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 owners will all be able to get a taste of the latest in the franchise as soon as the demos go live today.
Looking forward to the latest installment in the adventures of [insert first name here] Shepard? You'll soon be able to take a look at what's in store when the demo launches on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. Of course, if you're a 'Kingdoms of Amalur' fan, downloading and playing the 'Mass Effect 3' demo will also unlock special in-game items for you.
The folks behind 'Mass Effect 3' have also made an announcement regarding the release date of the game. When a development team talks about their deadline it almost always means that they're missing it, but executive producer Casey Hudson says that the game is officially gold. In other words, 'Mass Effect 3' is done early - not exactly a common occurrence.

Select GameStop Stores Will Host 'Amalur' Game Creators at Midnight Launches
Wed Feb 01, 2012 at 12:30 PM ETTags: Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, GameStop (all tags)
If you're living in the right place, you can meet Curt Schilling, R.A. Salvatore, Todd McFarlane or Ken Rolston
One of the advantages of having an all-star team on your game is the amount of excitement - and press, certainly - that those celebrities can provide. The folks behind 'Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning' are making the news today by showing up at select midnight releases of the game.
If you're living in Maryland, swing up to Cockeysville to meet Ken Rolston, who was also lead designer on 'Oblivion,' as well as lead designer Ian Frazier, art director Tim Coman, combat designer Joe Quadara and audio director Grant Kirkhope.
In Tempe, Arizona, Todd McFarlane will be meeting fans. McFarlane is the man with the artistic vision of Amalur and is well known for his very cool toys and, of course, the comic 'Spawn.'
Bellingham, MA will host the founder of 38 studios, Curt Schilling, and the man behind the game's world, R.A. Salvatore. If you're heading there, get to the store way early. Baseball fans and fantasy fans certainly will.

Playing EA Demos Will Unlock Items in Other EA Games

You'll be able to get special items in both 'Amalur' and 'Mass Effect 3.'
Exclusive items are one tool that game companies use to get you to do certain things. They utilize these extras to convince you to preorder, buy a special edition of the game you want and even buy a game that you don't actually want in the first place. We're not saying it's bad mind you - that's just how marketing works.
EA's newest use of these promotional items requires no extra money from you at all. All you need to do is download and play a demo. It doesn't get much simpler than that.
The two games tied together in this promotion are 'Mass Effect 3' and 'Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning,' and you can get exclusive weapons and armor in both. The promo video seems to imply that you'll need to play both demos, but it seems a bit odd that you'd need to play a demo for a game you already own. Still, free exclusive items for playing demos - it's an interesting idea.
