    Bad Company 2 Beta

    Link

    Because i find putting it exclusively on a console that has a vast majority users without mics is going to help develop the game in addition to the pad being useless for any game that requires accuracy (insert M&KB>360 pad > PS3 pad here) :/ Only reason i assume it is exclusive is because the mucked up with mic support in BC1 for PS3 or money changed hands.

    Also, im surprised there not doing PC version earlier (at least there doing one eh?) seen as we're still waiting for BF1943 on PC (IIRC) and so really we have no indication of how well the engine works/runs.

    Thoughts, and at least we'll get a demo although it was a definite purchase for me anyway

    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    A beta and a demo! I feel spoilt after the lack of PC support during IW's MW2 fiasco.

    Love how DICE are just capitalising on all of IW/MW2s failings. Good on em, they've pretty much sold me on the game.

    In my opinion the PS3 pad is just as accurate as the 360s, (having played both halo3 and battlefield1942 (on ps3) for many many hours. Allot of people are starting to use headsets more and more now on the Sony platform, I don’t think I joined a single game where there wasn’t at least 3 or more people with headsets on, when playing the uncharted 2 beta. Its just the kids tend not to have them as much. - Also I think they owe Sony fans something for how much they ***** up the PS3 version of battlefield1942 (wish I got it on the 360 for voice chat).

    Edit.

    Also I'd just like to add that, I believe, the reason they are beta testing on the PS3 is because of all the problems they had with Bad Company 1 and battlefield1942, it wasn’t just the voice chat, there was allot of other problems and bugs, including Battlefield1942 freezing almost every other time I played it. I don’t think game devs do beta tests to develop games on consoles, they do it to optimize them and work out the bugs in online play. They probably know the 360 version will be fine (Although not having either Bad Company 1 or Battlefield 1942 on the 360 I can’t say for sure they weren’t as bad, but don’t think they were?)

    Re: Bad Company 2 Beta

    I've never actually played any of these games before, but combined with the MW2 fiasco and the absolutely stunning videos i've seen, i think i'm definitely going to be getting this instead.
