Earth and Beyond Kicks Off New Storyline

Armies gather and move out as leaders are drawn into conflict. Weapons capable of massive destruction strike fear into every day people. Soldiers kiss their loved ones as their commanders prepare for war. No, we're not talking about Iraq. Earth and Beyond, a sci-fi MMORPG by Electronic Arts has sent out a press release explaing that the game universe is about to undergo some drastic changes. As new alliances form, technology evolves, and secret agreements are forged in blood and steel, these developments kick off the start of Earth and Beyond's story line which will continue to evolve over the months to come. Even non subscribers will be able to participate, via a 1.2 GB, five day free demo. The following days should provide enormous interest for Earth and Beyond followers.
Starting this week, the Earth & Beyond galaxy will never be the same. A mysterious alien race is deploying around the galaxy. The warrior faction starts construction on a massive defense shield in preparation for war. The tradesmen begin building a new long-range stargate, in preparation of potential profitable trade agreements with the aliens. Most explorers are obsessed with the acquisition and decoding of more than 50 encoded data fragments. All these developments are part this month's update of Earth & Beyond, the online role-playing game published by Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS) under the EA GAMES(tm) brand. These historic galactic events can be experienced by all gamers, subscribers and non-subscribers, thanks to the Earth & Beyond 5-day demo program. The 1.2 GB demo can be downloaded from www.fileplanet.com/enb, www.gamespot.com/enb, www.fileshack.com, www.gigex.com and www.happypuppy.com . Westwood will also mail the two-disc demo set to anyone in North America who fills out the online form at http://www.earthandbeyond.ea.com/home/market_demodisc.jsp. The two disc set will be mailed within three to six weeks, postage free. The offer is limited to one per person. The demo disc is also on sale for $1.99 at participating Electronic Boutique and GameStop stores. Players should contact their local store for availability. With this month's game update, Earth & Beyond's developing story officially starts, and players will see the galaxy change, and take on missions that uncover key plot details. Each month, new content and events will develop the story, a story of invasion, politics, greed, sacrifice and ultimately, the survival of the human race. This month's game update includes 15 new missions, most of which deal with the ongoing story. Other enhancements in this week's update include:
