WhiteWolf Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 One of the most enticing features of Sony’s premium PlayStation Network service, PlayStation Plus, was the promise of exclusive betas for subscribers. While the free games and special deals offered by the service are certainly nothing to sneeze at, the chance of getting access to a game before anyone else has spurred many gamers to become PlayStation Plus members. Sony has now given the first details on the upcoming betas, with more to follow soon. Over on the US PlayStation Blog Lex Scheuble PSN Marketing Manager said: “Many game betas are done to test certain parts of a game or certain functionality (like previous game add-on integration) so that when the final version of the game launches, it’s the best it can be. Oftentimes, betas are extremely limited as well. We need to ensure that members of Plus meet that individual beta’s requirement to be issued an exclusive invite. There are two betas for PlayStation Plus members coming up shortly and more details will be announced soon.” However, surprisingly, not all PlayStation Plus subscribers will be eligible for some of the upcoming betas. “Betas have limited invites and based on selection criteria not every PlayStation Plus member will get access to every beta; however, we’re working with game developers to make qualified PlayStation Plus members the first to gain access.” Scheuble later responded to a reader’s comment which asked what sort of qualification permits PlayStation Plus members access to certain betas: “Hard to explain as they are different for every game, but more details are coming soon on the upcoming betas, so stay tuned.” PSN + :thumbsdown: ..

No it isnt BS,its an advertised feature for the PS+ you want beta, pay for it.Demos yes,full version yes,but beta is certainly not your right. That said I am glad that it is going to only 'select' people, wouldn't want a 5 year old with a rich dad to contribute on a game he has not played and has no interest in. Sorry to dissapoint if you were expecting rant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joy Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 Do I really care to play some beta three weeks before anyone else and pay for it If I can pre-order a game two months ago and wait in anticipation including delays I can wait for some damn beta as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
