Nice.

Be sure to post your impressions, pros and cons, etc.

What the hell... i havent gotten invites to ANY of the betas that are
currently running around. I'm a Qore subscriber, and i've preordered
SOCOM... and nothing. WTF!?@

Do you play online on PSN a lot? They look into your gaming habits to
decide who gets a key...

For me, other than playing Resistance once every week or two, I don't
play online on PSN much, so I don't expect an invite

Hi Steve, I think you could be right about Sony checking online habits of
beta applicants, but if I'm honest, I play my 360 a lot more than my PS3 and
I never play my PS3 online.
My brother in-law applied for a key before I did but he didn't get one - and
he plays online in the PSN like every day.

Sony probably give out a few beta keys to people like myself to try to tempt
us away from the competition but most of the folks I've met playing the beta
are pretty hard core Sony fans. Maybe it is just random selection and I got
lucky or perhaps I fit the demographic better. It might have been selected
because I've participated in Betas before - I guess we'll never know.

I was hoping to get on the SOCOM beta when I applied but I'll take what I
can get.

No kev, unfortunately no invite. Maybe you could tell us what you think of
it.

That is sad and dumb on Sony' part if they actually take that into
consideration. If you want me to spend more time on the PS3 then give beta
keys to people to entice them to start playing more. Personally I don't like
others having an edge on me by getting into betas that I can't. If Brenden
preordered the game and can't get in then there is seriously something wrong
with their strategy.

Hell I paid for an IGN Insider subscription just to get in on the
Battlefield demo. I was going to go out and preorder Socom this weekend
hoping to score a beta key but if what Brenden is saying is true I might not
even bother.
