MAG Beta Ends, Stats Impressive

The upcoming 256-player online, PS3 exclusive FPS MAG recently went through a public beta period, and over a million people experienced the action… or did they? Oddly, only 619,000 actually earned experience in the game, while a slim 143 people actually made it to a level 60 cap. Of the three factions, SVER ended up on [...]

Fake Call of Duty Beta Invites Going Out

If you received a supposed beta invite to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, it’s not real. Not only has nothing been announced about the game (not even a screenshot), any official word would have come from Infinity Ward, and their only reply was that yes, the invites are a no-no. If you have fallen [...]

SOCOM Confrontation Beta Delayed Four Days

It’s likely you woke up excited to take part in the SOCOM Confrontation beta Sept. 1st assuming you were one of the beta key holders. That excitement quickly turned to disappointment when that beta wasn’t around quite yet. Instead, Sony delivered the grim news that you’ll have to wait four more days until it’s all [...]

SSFIIHDR Beta Gettin’ Fixed

Plagued by system lock ups every time you try to enter into a match in the (big breath) Super Street Fighter II HD Remix Beta? Ticked off that Capcom said they wouldn’t be fixing these problems? Why take their words so seriously? It was apparently some kind of a joke. See, they will in fact [...]

SSFIIHDR recently started its beta period for those who purchased Commando 3 off of the Xbox Live Arcade. PS3 users who downloaded the game get [...]

Richard Garriott: “Beta Process … Really A Marketing Process.”

Gamasutra has a short but informative interview with Richard “Lord General British” Garriot (pictured), creative force behind Tabula Rasa. In it, he regrets opening the Tabula Rasa beta so early, stating that: We burned out some quantity of our beta-testers when the game wasn’t yet fun. As we’ve begun to sell the game, the [...]

Is Hellgate: London Bombing?

Flagship’s freshman game has been having a rough time of it. As the Hellgate: London beta ended, the game was still filled with bugs and design issues and, like the demo itself, did little to impress many potential buyers. Then came news that subscribers were being billed multiple times and the game’s lower-than-expected [...]
