Bungie invented everything didnt you know..

You are such a cretin Hogan... what I was saying is that this year I saw the Halo 3 beta, then a bunch of other betas were announced... Quake Wars, Warhawk, etc... I do not remember public betas of this nature or on this scale last year, or any other...

Actually, I was at a games expo a while back and I got to play a beta of a game called Fury...

I'm not really into it, the controls were kind of crap, but I'm getting a pilot copy of it for free in a couple of weeks...

We do enjoy the comic factor of your posts though.

You're like a kid... and what do you mean "we"? You're a loser, and no one likes you at all... just go away already! This used to be a good forum. It's a shame the dumb as **** admins can't do their jobs...

Bla bla bla... Pirarefunk as much as I dislike him and most of his comments he is the lesser of two evils around here. So if he's the lesser of two evils guess what that makes you...

As mentioned by NorC, public betas are not new or not even a "new thing", most every high profile game will go through a open of closed public beta. Its just that before when consoles werent internet capable, it was usually unheard of to the casual gamer, only PC game beta's we really heard of, and even then they werent usually widely known except for the people in the know.

The reason the halo 3 beta is so well know is because of the millions of trillions of Halo fangirls on this planet.

pirarefunk said: This proves yet again Iddqd has no idea..Betas have been around for many a year.What do you expect from some whose first console was probably a N64...what a mental giant.



^^^ blame this asshole, not me.

And Australia isn't open to most Betas because it's a small population, no developer really cares about us... they don't want to know what we think, 'cause they sell barely any games here...

This comment, "Who the **** wants to play betas? It's a trend now, everyone's copying Bungie..." sparked the debate and it was made by you, so don't try to avoid your responsibility. ._.

And it shouldn't matter whether our population is small. Anything can be distributed over the internet, no matter the country. We might download it a bit slower, but other than that we are just as good beta testers as somebody from America.

there is no reason you couldnt be in any of these betas. all you had to do is sign up i know i did for the warhark beta(with my US PSN account of corse) but i didnt get in same with home and the others if you are fast enough to sign up and are lucky you can get in them just be on the look out.

Iddqd at it again ,,he makes comments that are normally wrong or have little to no substance and when it doesnt go his way he either changes his tune or starts flaming.We have to remember he is still a child ...all is forgiven..chin up Iddqd
Heres the ironic thing he said "Who the **** plays Betas" in here but over in My360 hes singing the praises of the Halo beta..WTF

Beta games are usually multiplayer based (so that the story isn't ruined for single player), and Heavenly Sword doesn't have multiplayer.

Your not wrong piratefunk and its surprising just how much iddqd gets away with calling people loosers, assholes and now insulting the admins. I guess whenever he gets shot down he just has to result to flamming everyone. Iddqd you say developers don't care what we think because our population is so low, where did you read that? FYI: "The introduction of two new consoles helped spur the Australian games industry to new highs in 2006, with overall sales clocking in at A$925 million ($727.8 million) for the year."

What's this, gang up on me week? Go to My360... everyone, go there... Find where I've "praised" the Halo 3 beta... I'm asking as nicely as I can... quote me! I didn't want to ruin the real release, so I got rid of Crackdown when I finished it. No praising.

Del: take note; that quote you made was for the Australian gaming industry, stop kidding yourself. The USA's population is 300 million, Australia's is 20 million... who do you think they make more money off? We're about as significant as a piss in the ocean to them... Hell, the only reason they bother to release games here at all is so they don't seem arrogant... I didn't "read" that either...

Stonecold, the 360 has an ATI R600 GPU whereas, the PS3 has an already out of date Nvidia 7000 series due to the fact that it was delayed a year for Bluray... If neither of them are capable of DX10, then which one comes closest? The one with the unified processor technology and twice as much RAM, or the sub-average PC chip?

Dudes, I'm not your enemy... I've been on the MySites longer than all of you combined, so don't treat me like I'm the intruder. Yes, I am really pissed off with the admins, and Roy, not that you'd know who Roy is... If they were doing their jobs, things would be a lot different. The only time this sort of **** happens is when Pirarefunk is here, which isn't all that often... I'm sick of morons like him, with their multiple accounts... I've said it before, but Callan and Grey Snake need to be admins.
