I thought you said it was the 11th, but this site says it's out now.

Someone should make a new thread about this recent development. By Feb 23rd we could have a 2000+ page thread,

Why are gamestop employees getting to play the demo?


To help sell the game probably.

Sounds like some sort of half assed bribery.

They expect people to listen to GameStop employees? That's funny.

Bioware has never had great marketing, but this is just plain stupid.

The demo will be released on February 23rd guys. Gamestop received codes today for their employees to test the game starting February 11th - March 8th. In fine print on the site/paper it states.

This early demo access is being granted to Gamestop employees only. Any form of distribution, recording, posting of any elements of the Dragon Age 2 demo and any of its files is strictly prohibited until February 23, 2011 when the demo is made available to all consumers.

BEAUTIFUL! Give the demo to employees instead of the fans. I don't even begin to comprehend this. You catered to the people who didn't like ME1 in 2, don't do the same here.


I know its strange! I would think that you would want to give the general public the demo as soon as possible so that go WOW!!! And start pre-ordering!


The ME2 demo wasn't released until some time after the initial release (correct me if I am wrong I never tried the demo) and I have seen other developers and publishers do this as well so it is not uncommon.

I knew i should be working at Gamestop instead of Best Buy.


I used to manage a Gamestop, it's not all it's cracked up to be. (That could just be retail management however)

I can't comprehend this, at all. Likely get's nominated for the worst viral marketing campaign, ever.

And with that the BW bazaar countdown meter has been trumped!!! I didn’t think it possible, but there it is.  Wow.


How is excluding a very large portion of the playerbase comparable to this?

When you enter the code it comes up with a dead link.... probably won't be active until 2-11

Is the gamestop demo PC only, or are they only releasing it at ALL for PC?  It's unclear to me.

This actually pisses me off. Why the hell would you give exclusive access to a bunch of cashiers?

They're professionals!

So what does it mean by "available to all consumers."?



Will the demo be downloadable or will it only be at gamestop stores?

This trolled the entire playerbase. Not just non-America.
