EA are you trying to make Sony gamers fall in love with you again. Because if you are this is a very good start. But now you just ticked off a bunch of 360 gamers. Ahhhhhhh it's nice having both systems ;)

Everybody get ready to pre-order this at Gamestop you know they'll be one of the places giving out the beta, and possibly amazon. Hopefully Qore members will get in as well.

I've gotta say, Sony are killing it recently. Exclusive after exclusive after exclusive, and all of them AAA. Now they're getting 3rd party support as well, and from DICE which means BC2 is most likely using the PS3 as lead platform.

Hope I get in this beta, would like to see the improvements from the first one.

I know what you mean darx, sometimes you just can't help but prefer playing on a certain console.

For example, i own 68 PS3 games.I play all multiplats on it.
I have 1 360 game.And haven't touched it in over a year.

360 sucks and doesn't deserve (or have) any good games.
But hey, that's just my opinion.

rockleex - 46 days 19 hours ago

But that's just my opinion, and according to your own made-up rules about opinions... no one can reject it!

Therefore you have to accept that you just plain suck.

Remember, you're the only one living by those made-up rules. So whatever you say back to me, I can reject because I don't follow your rules.

Sucks, doesn't it?

Btw, hope I get in the beta. ^_^

Why do you people say that this is an exclusive because
they want to suport PS3 more etc?

Lets remember that BETAs are not demos.

For all we know they are releasing this to the PS3 only
because they may need so help to get it running on the PS3.

Don't just jump into conclusions like that.

I hope I do get it if I have to I will pre order it
earlier then I was planning to.

glennc - 46 days 14 hours ago

that's why they have a beta on the PS3 they don't need it as much on the 360. we will buy it anyway and it will work. FPS don't sell that well on PS3 because of the slightly different market. DICE want to rectify this and make sure they get it right, given they are a third party developer on the PS3.

so yes i am very jealous of this but i think i can wait for the full release. good things are worth the wait.

this game will be the best online FPS on either console without a doubt, how can it not be, BC1 and 1943 the current best online experiences. the only way the competition can match it is by replicating it.

The only CoD beta for the 360 was CoD5, So saying "Infinity Ward and Treyarch always made exclusive betas for 360 and PC but never released a beta for PS3" was probably because there was only one beta made by Treyarch, and we all know they are barely comparable to IW.

Agree(0) | Disagree(2) | Report

W-k - 46 days 10 hours ago

i respectfully disagree imo Treyarch is better right now Infinity Ward is not at all doing any thing for us,Treyarch gave us split screen co-op as well as online co-op i feel the game play on cod:waw is a bit better while it doesn't have the better story or have better graphics but at least i can play it with my friends when they come over clearly cod4 is a better game but if iw are the better developers how come they cant give us split screen or a real co-op game they had a chance to make mw2 a way better game and they blew it.don't get me wrong it will be a good game one of the best this year but Infinity Ward has dropped the ball big time with mw2 there lazy there not doing any thing new because they know its going to sell.Treyarch at least gives us more in there games and deserves at least some credit more then they get.one thing i would love to have in the call of duty games is to be able to pick what guns i want to use in the story mode like in the mp,one game that had that was rainbow six Vegas 2 i loved that.cod4 had no capture the flag and i found my self getting bored of only playing domination and some others I'm not in to TDM i play it rarely,kz2 was awesome for online modes a mix of every thing was great but this is just my opinion.
EDIT:
looks like mw2 will have some sort of capture the flag thank god http://www.youtube.com/watc...

And you know this because you've played the game right?! Oh no, wait, I know, it's because the first was so much better than Modern Warfare, right? On no, wait, is it because the beta is exclusive to the PS3 it's better than Modern Warfare 2? Really, just how did you come to this conclusion?! O_o

Perhaps because he played both COD4 & BF:BC and can easily see the improvements made to BF:BC2 while MW2 is bssically COD4 with new perks.

How come you're so upset over his post? Is it because the first was so much better than Modern Warfare, wait, is it because the beta is exclusive to the PS3? is is because it will better than Modern Warfare 2?

You know your desperate if your including Singstar, Naruto, and BUZZ plus Ninja Gaiden is on 360. I love how if a game is on 360 and PC, it isn't exclusive, but if it's on PS3/360 and one version is slightly better, It is an exclusive no questions asked.

PS Their are 86 360 exclusives in NA (Not including PC/360 games)
- Their are 51 PS3 exclusives in NA
- Their are 38 360/PC exclusives. Meaning if you don't have a capable PC, it's 124 X360 games v. 51 PS3 games.

Look up your facts. To prove my point, if you send me a PM asking for the complete list, I'll give it to you.

Maybe because the PS3 is a far more reliable more powerful console? More potential? Free online? A PS3 gamer is looking for something that is above the other's in there respected fields ( BF, COD, etc ). We see that BFBC2 is something that is not a rehash of 2007. It's for more deverse and impacting as far as online goes between the two games here. Something a more mature gamer will look forward too over a young avg aged Halo fan playing CODMW2.

lol. My 360 didnt get any good exclusives that I'd go sit down to play atm.
Whilte Ps3 still has games like Rachet n clank coming in.. see the difference?
Thats why 360-only owners will jump on Mw2.. it's the only good game they have seen all year on their console.

Mw2 can wait, i still got other games to play. Might borrow a copy of Mw2 from my friend. Since he is gonna buy two for his brother n himself. But his brother is out of country for another month (awesome!), then i can renew my live too, since they both own only 360s.

Downandout - 46 days 21 hours ago

MAYBE, its because Bad company 1 on 360 didn't have many problems, where as the PS3 did, which constitutes a beta on that system, and the PC hasn't used the frostbite engine before so that's understandable

But you MUST be stupid with a comment like that. The ps3 was the most expensive system this gen all the way up to this past September. So how the ps3 audience can't "afford" MW2 is beyond me.

And let's not talk about beta testing. The difference with Bad Company 2 and most of the 360 games defecting over to the ps3 is Bad Company always was multiplatform.

But since you want to talk about Beta testing, At least our "beta testing" is free

Let's list some games bots like you beta tested for us:

Eternal Sonata
Ninja Gaiden
Tales of Vesperia
Star Ocean

And the best part is, you 360 owners PAID for the PS3 Superior versions. Oh and rest assured, you WILL be doing more beta testing for us in the future

Not a surprise to see this clown in here. He say's some of the dumbest things I've ever seen, lol

can't afford? You own a "cheap" console. A sub par one with a dvd player. A record setting failure in gaming consoles that couldn't even come with Wi-Fi and online for free. You you dare type "can't afford " ? You see the words " Exclusive " and you just have to come in and post. That is the total inferior complex you and many like you have. You see GOTY's on the PS3 only and you feel the need to post there as well. You total insecurities bleed all over this forum. Your screen name shows us that as well. It's based on a VERY popular PS game is it not?

It's great that they are focusing on the PS3, that way the game will not be downgraded because of the limited 360 hardware. Besides, bricked 360s are a hassle when you are trying to meet milestones.
