Starcraft 2 beta

Just got a key for it this morning. Is anyone else here in it? If so, what's your opinion?

For those interested, the dutch gaming magazine/site Power Unlimited is tossing around loads of beta keys, both in articles on their site and in Twitter posts by several of their writers. All of them are first come, first served.

I wanted to get my hands on that, but never got the key :( Tried the site you mentioned despite not speaking Dutch, even found the post and entered the only key that was to be found on it into my Battle.net, but it has obviously been claimed already, so thats a no go. Will look into it more when I get home, but I would defo like to play some SC2, yes.

There's at least one key pasted somewhere into each of the articles on the site. However, people generally enter them quite quickly. Your best bet would probably be to stalk the relevant twitter people.

[strike]I've preordered a Collector's Edition from Gamestop so should hopefully be getting a beta key for it soon[/strike]. . . .

Scratch that, I have a key now and am currently patching the beta to playable level so I can play in the afternoon. :)

For those who don't have a beta key, you can do something sneaky like Xar did. Pre-order from Game, get key, cancel pre-order, not spend a penny as Game only charge your card when they ship you the game.

Details on SavyGamer.co.uk.

Hey! I got my key from Iro fair and square. :p

Though interestingly enough I cancelled my order from Gamestop yesterday *then* they sent me an e-mail with another beta key. . . .

I've already given away my 2nd key to someone, hehe, I'll see what I can do about getting you a key though. ;3

Don't forget that if you pre-order from Game after the 5th of May you can get a key.
