What about the code I got from buying Killzone 3? Will that work now?

Nope. You have to wait 2 more weeks, I think.

So whats the verdict buzz?

I played about 10 games and here are some thoughts. I only played supression mode so far, but more will become available as the week goes on. My opinions could change after trying new modes.

- I can't believe on Suppression they don't have a kill limit to win, the game literally lasts 20 minutes and whoever has the most kills at the end wins. That's just too long for me.

- the camera angle is fucking garbage. It is so far zoomed in when you run you can rarely use the 3rd person view to your advantage with walls.

- the cover system blows, most of the time you can't aim while in cover. In classic mode all people do now is corner camp and spray as soon as you walk by.

- the grenades have no arc view so you essentially throw them blind which 99% of the time goes where you didn't aim for.

- shooting feels very loose when firing but tight while you move. I don't really like it.

- Maps feel way too big for you to play classic socom with no respawn. Games lasted 30 minutes sometimes.

- Open mics with 16 people is gay as fuck. No idea whos talking.

- The positive? Somehow I had fun playing, but not Socom fun. This shouldn't be called Socom 4, and with Crysis 2 and Homefont releasing a month before it, I really don't see a selling point for the game.

Crysis is terrible. Have you played that demo

It is complete and utter poo garbage. It looks pretty though

I've played the beta twice and don't like the camera one bit..it's to low to the ground and loose. Why can't I have real 3rd person like in Socom 2 and Confratation. I'm used to Confratation and all and I know Zipper is a different company but this beta reeks, already pre ordered it tho.

Zipper is giving out 75 Beta codes

LOL. WTF is your character wearing? He looks like he's in a musical from the 1950's. Boogie woogie bugle boy.
