We’ve got 1,000 MAG beta keys – want one? [Update]

maglogo

Update: It looks as those these codes are Euro-only. We’re getting a bunch back not working from American readers. Don’t try to get one if you’re outside Europe.

Update 2: The text below’s been updated. We’ll just leave this page open until they’re all gone. Just keep tweeting @patlike.

SCEE just sent us 1,000 MAG beta keys. Hilariously, we’ve got to distribute them ourselves. Here’s how you get one:

  • Comment on this story. Please try to be witty, or something. Or say something along the lines of, “I love buying games. I spend all my money on games.” We’re supposed to be attractive to advertisers.
  • Follow all of the following on Twitter: @patlike, @vg247, @stephnunneley, @JohnnyCullen and @vahn16.
  • Tweet the following ONCE: @patlike Give me a #magbeta key!
  • NOTE: You MUST follow @patlike to receive the code.
  • Spam me and you get nothing. Worse: you get less than nothing.
  • We’ll keep doing this until they’re all gone. Just keep tweeting @patlike and we’ll keep sending out codes.

The beta’s now been extended to December 4. Good luck!

Okay, I’ll think I will try reverse psychology on you guys.

Don’t give me a MAG Beta Key because I’m sure a 256 player online FPS is just a blatant rip-off of everything done before. =D

Dear everyone,
Could you please send me just one code!!?????
I will repeat this message after the beep.
I Love games staring with beeps
I think I am going crazy after playing 232223 hours of gaming..
Every where I look I see beeps, donkey kongs and MAG beta keys!!
keys that go beep.

Yes I m nuts.

I want a key
A key that smels of roses.
When I open up the window in the morning dawn I can see a shimmer of light..
a lightbeam that bounced off the long stretch of microscopic cells
cells lightend bij something called electricia in the motherland of my mother.
cells that form a flat surface which is smothered with letter words and well known numbers
the number 666 was last the most known number series in te world..
now my baby has lost the battle of sound.

clarise, have you got that code I asked for?

I have one for you…
its 1080………

If I dont get the code I will go nutter than this!!!

Important – You must FOLLOW @patlike to get the code. About 50% of the tweets I’m getting aren’t following me. This is in no way soul-destroying. But, just in case it is, follow me so I can DM the code.

Please please please get me a key. finally a shooter with true consistent teamwork that is enforced by the games structure.

Of course i’d also like to point out that I love buying games. I spend all my money on games.

and if it lends me some credit i was following @patlike before this post (like a true loyalist)

wow what a bunch of free loading cry baby beggars. 90% of you don’t even write a line of text in a month, but as soon as Garratt starts giving stuff away (especially PlayStation stuff) you guys flock in here like buzzards. You’re making PlayStation fans look bad.

Would totally love a chance to test out MAG.

I’ll try to catch your interest with an amusing joke a friend recently told me:

I know why the sun never sets on the British Empire: God wouldn’t trust an Englishman in the dark.
