While working as the lead PR representative for the Cartoon Network game, Adventure Time: Hey Ice King Why’d You Steal Our Garbage?!, I wanted to do something special.

Medal of Honor Hot Zone
When Medal of Honor (2010) launched, we wanted to make sure the fans knew they were loved and adored. That’s why the EA development team agreed to play the Medal of Honor multiplayer mode for several hours with the fans. The result was quite a few happy campers.
Mass Effect 3 Space Edition
With Buzz Aldrin as a part of the game, it seemed obvious that Mass Effect 3 needed a Space Edition. With some weather balloons, GPS trackers, and GoPro cameras, we sent Buzz Aldrin-signed copies of Mass Effect 3 into space for fans to track and recover.
