Hopefully this is true so my friends on Xbox can experience this game.

Wouldn't the PS3 Beta still be running then?

Seriously?

Usually with beta's end before the official demo comes out. Why would any developer keep a small beta group open when they can have a larger pool when they release the official demo.

It did? Because the beta client doesn't expire until the 28th of Feb.

@Platinum_lame

Uncharted 2 released the beta as the demo. I don't understand your logic with the pools. Recent updates would have the beta and demo running on the same build of the game... the beta pools and official demo pools would be playing together.

MAG also reopened the beta once the official demo was released.

And the PC "beta" starts a few days later, what a joke.

Atlast I will be able to find out for myself why people think M.A.G. is a lesser version than this cos I really like M.A.G.

I dont know thats what I want to find out. Since alot of people are passing on M.A.G. and getting this due to the betas. I just want to know the draw I will be getting M.A.G no matter what though and wont be picking up BFBC2 because its not in my budget there are waaaaaay to many games coming out in the next few months

I played both, and Bad Company seems better. Then again I'll probably get it for PC. I often get better rankings in PS3 shooters, but I prefer mice controls.

I'll rent MAG before I buy it.

This is awesome. The demo comes out on my birthday.

But shameless plugs aside, this game looks ridiculously fun.
