Considering it's a casual player game and the number of BD enthusiasts that have a PS3, but probably don't touch games - this would seem like a great cross-sell/exposure opportunity for the PS3.

Was just a thought.....
wouldn't that be nice. I'm guessing no as this site doesn't seem to have anywhere near the staff of say an ign or gamespot.

gamespot has made it very clear, that they have one person on staff.

if that was sarcasm i missed it...

gamespot is always all about those videos, podcasts, and they even have gamespot uk and other gamespots around the world.. i would have them pegged at around 30 people.

giving out beta codes at random time to test online gameplay is a pretty dumb product test strategy.

I believe they are doing this to increase the hype/advertisement and testing out the game being secondary.

Im hating the random beta give aways. Sucks for those who are at work or school. Anyways guess ill be fine, itll just make for a better experience first time I pop it in. Just ordered the Nariko skin from best buy, now to try and get a Kratos code.

See I wanna try the Beta to see if I want to pre order from Gamestop and get the Kratos code, if I enjoy the Beta I'll enjoy the game.....this random Beta is bullshit and I've tried all afternoon yesterday....

no i was talking about www.gamespot.com. Recently they were talking about how they now have gamespot.uk and gamespot.au and perhaps a few others... and i was doing so to draw a comparison between the size of the blu-ray.com staff (small) and the gamespot.com staff (large). Hope that clears it up.

Well, I sent in my entry for the IGN contest when I saw it on the Playstation blog when I got home from work.. actually it was 3 or 4 hours after I got home for work and happened to come across it.


I honestly think I was just flat out lucky to get a beta code.


It does have some jitters I think could be ironed out but its a fairly polished product. I can't wait till I get my hands on the full game!

don't worry, they already announced that the week before release they will make the "beta" available to all making it what it already is a "demo"
