I just got a call from EB Games saying that they were now giving out beta keys to people who pre-order starcraft 2. They said I can go in and pick it up starting tomorrow. Has anyone else heard anything about this? I will let you guys know if I actually get one tomorrow when I get home from work...

EDIT: It seems like a few other people have been able to call and confirm that this is the case but there may be only a limited number...

Confirmed/denied? I hate the eb by my house (SMUG FUCKERS) but I guess I would preorder for a beta key. I mean who isn't going to buy this game?

Since this is only a Canadian situation as far as I know this is the one circumstance where I wish I was Canadian instead of American.

Just kidding but couldn't help to jab at my northern neighbours. Thanks for Molson too :-)

I thought this would be against the Terms of services... It's obvious that they're using the beta keys to generate lots and lots of revenue for their business they otherwise wouldnt get :o

You'll still have us non-Canadians, unless EB bring this to Australia.... in which case I'm so there
