EA Shows Off How You Can Win Mass Effect 3 Early From Space

Last week we heard that EA would be launching copies of Mass Effect 3 into orbit early, giving eager gamers a chance to get their hands on the game in advance of its official release. This week, EA is clarifying this crazy plan with a video.

Watch the video below for some silly footage of a real-life Normandy soaring the skies. Trust me, it's a little less impressive than it sounds.

As goofy as this promotion is, I'm also kind of enjoying the absurdity of it. Anyone in our audience planning to keep track of the GPS for the game to try to nab an early copy of Mass Effect 3?
