So in other words, this is for people with no work, family, or social life

Heard some good stuff about the beta, some of the “vets” arent happy it isnt SOCOM 2 HD, but overall most people say that its solid.

Yeah it’s bomb…I’ve been playing it since 3/15 because I got a private beta invite from PSN for being a randomly selected member of the forums, this is just last week’s schedule repeated, but it is definitely worth a look…Now available to all PS Plus members…Killzone 3 buyers who received a code will get access on the 29th, and it will be available to all Playstation users April 5th.
Edit: @1 not really…unless you’re “kind of a big of a deal”, you have time to try out a new game mode an hour a night, really not that difficult unless you make yourself that “busy” in which case why do you even own a video game system at all?

Grabbed it last night. After an initial 800Mb download there was a quick-ish title update and then a super slow 1.5Gb server update within the game. FFS! Finally got to try at 12:15am. Turns out it could just be a little bit special. Really nice engine, lots of detail and nice size maps but good clarity too. Controls really nicely as well. A good step up from MAG in a lot of respects and a world away from Confrontation.
Played some Suppression – was a one life each TDM type game – was that the Classic version? Love the tension in that sort of mode though. This has now been upgraded from possible purchase to must buy. Just had a great feel to the game which ticked a lot of my boxes.
