This game is gonna be sick.
Hell Yeah!
I need to add another $50 to paypal. Just preorded mass effect 2 today, and now this becomes available.
I already pre-ordered it for £24.99 at GAME. Ideally if it was just as cheap on the Steam store I would buy it here instead.
I'll hold of a couple days. I kind of want a retail copy of this, but if I can't find a beta key by the 27th, I'll buy it on Steam.
Just bought it!
Didn't even think twice, pre-ordered.
If you're in the UK it's cheaper to buy it from Game.co.uk. Be aware that only purchases from play.co.uk get you into the PC beta. [editline]02:53AM[/editline] Scratch that, the Steam version is getting beta access as well. Hmm.
except they're pretty much impossible to get just like the PS3 beta
I'm gonna wait for reviews, but I think it's going to be awesome. The rest of the franchise is starting to feel really, really dated.

The one at play.co.uk is actually £26.99 and guarantees a beta access. [editline]03:30AM[/editline] Done.
I'm torn between this and Bioshock 2. Ahhggg :(

[QUOTE=leach139;19793684]the play.co.uk one is not the limited edition, good job[/QUOTE] Oh crap, you're right. What on earth am I doing? [editline]04:15AM[/editline] I'll skip the beta then. [editline]04:20AM[/editline] Done.
[QUOTE=leach139;19792717]except they're pretty much impossible to get just like the PS3 beta[/QUOTE] Are you kidding? They were handing them out on FileFront, Gamestop, Bestbuy, and more. I got like 10 keys and I don't even own a PS3.
You get beta access if you preorder on steam.
Fucking Ace! It's only $49.99 for Australians.
Just a bit curious, they were talking about Steam getting something special that retailers weren't offering.
I thought DICE said it was an open beta on the 28th? [editline]01:36AM[/editline] Is it only open for people who pre-ordeR?
wasn't dart-tracer-gun default in BC?Actually I'm sure,yeah it was,basically in v1 you had nades,in v2 you need to have special edition to get those nades,well played,well played,anyways waiting for retail,don't care bout this marketing bullshit scam,well not directly,but still.I'm pretty sure this limited edition is made for sheep's.
Wait, so if you don't pre-order the game, you won't get those items? I'm kinda confused.
Just ordered.

[QUOTE=aydin690;19796644]Wait, so if you don't pre-order the game, you won't get those items? I'm kinda confused.[/QUOTE] They are unlocks. If you pre-order the limited edition you get them on Day 1. If not you have to unlock them.
Fuck, i spent the last of my money on AVP and Bioshock 2.
Too many games coming out at the same time!
Fuuuuck! This and booze or a new guitar?
There will be an open multiplayer demo. I don't need that beta.
