Resistance 2 beta

Got my res2 uk beta code today from my pre-order from a web only media site. How many others have a code? Ign are running a comp for uk beta codes today, I'll be on line after 10 tonight. Maybe we can arrange some games here I'm pretty sure the US ones will be able to join

No Beta keys from IGN today sadly

Still not sure if I'm going to bother with this or not. Might be worth putting a pre-order in so I can try out the beta though

Got mine and it doesn't work. Can only assume someone else has pinched it.

I've not had mine through yet, but it'll be with me in a matter of days I'm sure. It had best be better than the last beta, as that was truly awful

I fancy a go at the online CO-OP mission. Done it a couple of times with randoms, but could do with leveling up. Need at least 4 people to have a good go at it tbh.

Really enjoying the original at the moment (just got to the bit where the human base is being invaded) so hoping i get an invite to this beta. However i've not been invited to a beta yet despite spending huge amounts of time + money on the PSN so i'm not holding my breath

The beta client is shareable. Whoever gets a code, create a new dummy PSN account, redeem it, download it and then share account with 4 other people. Easy. I already redeemed mine on my USA account

In Europe atleast the invite process isn't random luck, SCEE put up a survey (which someone posted here I believe) a few months ago to recruit people into their beta test programme and they are the one's who get to take part in the beta's.

In the case of R2 now, as far as I'm aware for Europe you get in by pre-ordering the game at a certain retailer or get lucky on one of the web sites which gives out codes.

Looks like the codes sent out was sent early, the PAL Beta doesnt start till Tuesday now

That why the retailer codes dont work, they may even have to send new codes out on tuesday.

Thanks, that explains why my code doesn't work
