Another beta for me

posted by Jambi Bum

Mon Oct 13, 2008 at 02:29:17 PM EST

So I just got into the COD5:WAW beta. Seeing how everyone around here is kind of on the fence about the game I'll be sure to post my opinions of it as often as I can. Plus if I get another code I'll pass it along to someone here.

    - No I don't and the LBP beta is over lol (none / 0)
      
      Couple of things I have noticed in the beta so far. There are now tanks. They are pretty slow so it's not really that hard to kill them. Oh and instead of helicopters after 7 kills you now get dogs. That's right. Dogs. They hunt out the enemy and attack them. It's really good for finding campers. They also kill people pretty quick but they are pretty easy to kill themselves.

        I was just saying they're not gonna be getting it for a couple days, but the game looks SO DAMN GOOD! I just can't wait that long...
        
        FYI: Saints Row 2 has The Black Dahlia Murder, Lamb of God, Opeth, Trivium, and some other badass Metal bands as well. It really surprised me because it's definitely more fun than GTA4 so far since it has more of an arcadey feel to it.

        Metal bands they got for the Soundtrack is a pretty solid line-up. Especially for having as many 'big names' as they got. Compared to GTA, all they had were the Rappers.

For the COD5 beta (none / 0)

There was a guy who got extras from eurogamer. They were giving away like 20,000 codes and so he held a random drawing for it and I won.

For the Endwar beta I was trying to get another COD5 code for the 'heads and this guy held a contest through his email that whoever sent him the best story got the code. Well I sent him mine and ended up getting second place so he gave me the endwar code.
