Is it just me or does it seem like more and more developers are producing demos and calling them (open) betas in order to give a sense of exclusivity and build hype?
I'm not just talking about the PS3 here either, I started seeing this 4 or 5 years ago on PC games after developers were starting beta tests and had hundreds of thousands of people sign up. It seems that many of these (so called) betas now a days start far too close to when the game is released and don't have much of an impact on the end product.
