Is this event open to all forumites? and is the time 4.40 PM Edmonton time? (sorry had to ask)

[Razorsedge820]

I am calling the Jets and Vikes in the superbowl. The Vikes because Adrian Petterson is going to run all over the saints D and the Jets because Payton Manning will get knocked down constantly by the Jets rush defense (plus I am a Jets fan). Combining Mass Effect 2 and NFL playoff football is a dream come true.

So to clarify: We're talking about 4:40PM Edmonton time, meaning 6:40PM EST for the start of the Vikings/Saints game, correct? And then the trailer will air at the 2 minute warning in the first half, so the trailer will probably be on around 7:40-8:00ish EST?

[tmacairjordan87]

Is the trailer going to be edited/cut down a bit for tv, or will it be the full trailer? I ask because I believe the trailer is a bit over 2 minutes long, and that's usually pretty long for a TV commercial. I'm hoping it's the full trailer because of how epic it is, and it deserves to be shown in full.





Oh and go Saints. Nothing against the Vikings as a team, but I hate Favre with every fiber of my being and he unfortunately plays for them..so they have to lose.

LOL, Chris, seriously?

I have to say it's some more time that will have to be spent on watching bioware doing bioware stuff but it's worth it. I'd like to chat more and find out more about you guys, and maybe even win some swag - though what are the chances of that...

How exactly DO we win the swag? Is it just given out to a random username?

And what is 4:40 PM anyway? What timezone is that?

Howdy football and Mass Effect 2 fans. This Sunday January 24th at 4:40 PM , myself and other members of the BioWare office will be watching the NFC Championship game between the Minnesota Vikings and the New Orleans Saints from one of our favorite watering holes. This is one of two match ups to see who will go on to play in the Superboel!

"What? Why shoud I care about American football, Evil Chris" I hear you say. Well let me tell you.

One - It is going to be an amazing football game.

Two - Our awesome ME2 launch trailer is confirmed to be in Break 25, better known as the “2 minute warning break.”  Where over 35 million viewers will see the trailer. Also, just as the 2nd half of the game begins, the announcer will recap the 1st half as “brought to you by Mass Effect 2” with the attached image on screen.

Three - to keep you all entertained as we cheer on the teams, we are going to be Live streaming the event and hosting a fan chat on BioWares Ustream Channel http://www.ustream.tv/bioware

During the game me and the rest of the folks will be chattign online about the game, Mass Effect 2, Life at BioWare and more. We're also going to be randomly giving away ME2 swag every 15 minutes to the fans like t-shirts, posters, comic books and more.

So if you want to chat about Mass Effect 2, football or just watch me and a bunch of BioWarians drink beer and eat chicken wings, NOW is your opportunity.

Hope to chat with you on Sunday.

Are you ready for some Mass Effect 2 sponsored football?

???Will they show anything on the big screen at the Dome(Superdome),or is it for tv veiwers not at the game???
I ask because I'm from New Orleans and will be at the gameWHO DAT NATION will be alive,I'm just wondering if I can say look B**** the Saints game is sponsored by my fav Game lol.
And I miss the chat ,No chance of any free T-shirts or anythingO well WHO DAT!!!!!!!!

As much as I love ME, I am not watching your so-called football haha. There is only one sports team worth being a fan of, and it is F.C. Barcelona.

All I have to say to the Vikes fans is "Gary Anderson 1998" And if you dont know what that means, Im a Falcon fan. I happen to believe in Vikes/Jets tho. The Favre underplot would be so great for that game

Curse you for even mentioning that game! A pox upon your house!

GO VIKINGS?!?!?!?!?!






Oh and the whole mass effect 2 thing is awesome too i guess ;p

[Frek]

Go Vikings and Go ME2 trailer!

[Litos456]

Can someone clarify me the timezone?



And question to Chris/whoever else from Bioware: How exactly are you going to pick who wins prizes? I really want one hehe... of course everyone does, but I'm really hoping I'll be able to try my best at getting something, except I'm just not sure what to do.

[Laterali]

The game starts at 3:30 pst. Or UTC -8.

Lol, that's really yankee advertizing. A lot of us Europeans think that it looks pretty damn stupid saying  "this is brought to you by", and then something that has absolutely nothing to do with what you're watching.

Go Vikings, its finally our year.

[Rip504]

D.Brees only has 4 teams to beat before he has beaten all 32(Farve the only QB in NFL history to beat all 32)Brees needs Bears,Steelers,Ravens,and the VIKINGS GO Saints who dat!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Mass Effect, but not enough to sit through football to see something I've already seen.

Have fun, though, sports fans.

Well, the Italian league has seen better times; the best players in the world are here in Spain now. Anyway, that's completely off-topic. Go Vikings or whoever!

Yippie for shot up and wounded Garrus!  Such a handsome fellow that Garrus.

Still, that's something of a spoiler for some on this forum so beware.  I  already know the situation that leads him to looking like that given I've watched some of the livestreaming of the gameplay but you're going to upset a lot of people posting that.  Just saying.....

[Litos456]

I'll try to sit through... how long does it last?

I guess I only want to hear the "Life at Bioware" part and maybe win some prizes. But winning prizes isn't a big chance... unfortunately, so I don't know. I'll see how it is, but I might get bored =\\



How are you gonna watch a game and talk about ME2 at the same time though?

[MGIII]

I know this is an internet forum about a sci-fi game, but damn, the amount of Football disinterest prevailing in this thread is quite saddening.
