| starcraft said: There are not many games that can be released outside of peak periods and still be considered blockbusters. GTAIV and MGS4 could do it. Halo 3 was September but even that was getting close to the holidays. But February is just a dog in Europe saleswise for a game with a poor predeccessor. Socom is largely its own game in a weird kind of genre. Resistance I could understand not wanting the clash, but avoiding it so desperately you kick a game you've been hyping since 2005 to 2009's dead months? I agree that the Beta will show us a lot about the gameplay. But at the end of the day 99.9% of all people playing it will be PS3 owners, so do you really expect that to slow down the hype if it is unjustified?

Assuming not all ps3 owners are fanboys, then yes, I do.
I know I'll be making every effort possible to get in on the beta, so if nothing else my impressions will be brought forth to discussions on here (though I wouldn't consider myself an expert on FPSes by any means).
Of course, this is assuming they don't make the beta a Qore exclusive. I will not be paying for that BS, even if it is only $2.99. >_>
Well, I say that now... :P
