Called up two in Agoura Hills, California and one in Woodland Hills, California. They haven't heard of the promotion nor have keys.

Edit: Also called up three EB Games, also a no go.

To confirm, the clerk in Portland, OR said no they have no beta keys. He had no idea about the rumor I asked him about that said select GameStop stores had Starcraft II beta keys.

If EB does with Canada, they clearly have some deal.

Plus.. I just had 8 real life friends grab keys not long ago by.. you know.. other means.

It is definitely real for sure.

At least the for sure is in my neighborhood.

I can confirm that the Gamestop in Albermarle, North Carolina doesn't have any keys. I called in and the guy was clueless about what I was talking about. He even double checked with his boss and they hadn't heard anything.

Okay guys im going to stop hawking this thread for tonight, hopefully tomorrow we will get some posts and replies with some better results than so far. (1 area has for sure, 1 does supposedly, and a bunch of no/maybe/"Are you insane no we do not have keys.)

I think all of those people are either too lazy to check or are clueless. When I spoke with the guy at my local store he had no idea what StarCraft was but he said GameStops/EB Games are getting keys for people that pre-order the game. So I wouldn't believe most of those people honestly. My store is getting their delivery around noon so that's when I would call if I were you guys.

Well, I just took a look at gamestop's website and well... You might want to take a look yourselves

http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/productDetails.aspx?sku=647051

Seems like they are not making it a secret.

Here's an excerpt from the page:
----------------------------------------
Reserve StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty and receive an invitation to the StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty beta. Available online and in-store while supplies last. Once you receive your Beta Code your order cannot be canceled.

Online Customers (web delivery): A code and instructions on how to join the beta will be emailed within 1 business day of when your order was placed.

In-Store Pickup Customers: Please wait 24 hours after your order is placed, then proceed to your store to pick up your beta code.

Store Customers: A beta code will be printed on your pre-order receipt.
-----------------------------------------------

If this has already been posted, let me know and I'll edit and remove this information. I saw the result end up in google 11min ago so, thought it was new.


Oh, and now I see it's posted on Gamestop's front/main page

Oh what the hell, everyone can just pre-order online. It's like a better opt-in.

Yeah, the only thing preventing me from pre-ordering online is that I don't want to wait 3 days for the game and don't want to pay the $15 shipping, especially since you cannot cancel your pre-order after getting the beta key. I'll just leave work for about 15min at 10am tomorrow, which is where they open near me, and get the key.

Yeah but once you pre-order and get that code you can't cancel. So you are locked into your online purchase.

I may try a local store tomorrow so I can just put down $5 and get my beta key. If that fails, then I will get it online likely. Way to much withdrawal to hold out much longer.

I ordered online since our local GameStop does not have the beta key giveaways. I'll see tomorrow if I get one.
