Check your email boys and girls. I just received my invite and got accepted.

********************* Update************************

I've decided to sticky this so those of us who managed to get in can share
our usernames (or anticipated usernames). That way we can get in on some
online gaming fun together if they have a sophisticated enough buddy list. I'll
update this post with your names as you reveal them.

haha daphatty i knew i could depend on you getting this email also. I just got accepted too. What is this game though? Is it supposed to be cool?
 
Thanks for the heads up. I'm in too! :D

Phantom Crash for the Xbox was great! Lots of custom mechs in arena style combat, which took place in huge bombed-out cities. Crazy Macross-style missile streams and Predator style cloaking were par for the course. Problem was it was made before Xbox Live was the thing. The online element is soooooo what this game needed to be an A title, and now it has it, PS2 style.

Rock.

Like all the Sony beta tests, you must receive an invite via email from Sony. One of the best ways to make sure this happens is to sign up for the Playstation Underground, then in your preferences check the box that indicates you want to be considered as a beta tester. Do a search on the forums for a more detailed description, as this has been covered quite a bit.

The real catch, however, is that even if you do receive an invite email for a particular game you must be one of the first 5000 to register for it, or you still don't get in.
 
[quote name='darekIsAwesome']BTW, what type of game is this?[/quote]

If I doubted it before, now I know for sure people don’t read previous posts before posting. :roll:
 
Just got my email and got in.

Too bad I sold my PS2 months ago. Guess I'll have to go over my brother's house to play.
 
Aw, man. Here you go, Rig.

Ouch. Stupid Sony! Let me beta! And I was just wondering, on the same screen where you check the box to beta test, have you guys registered your Network Adapter? I saw that I had not, and thought maybe they picked out people that had it registered. Or maybe they just don't like me, either way.
 
m_damore..there shouldnt be no servey. You should just have to fill in like your address and etc and then it would tell you that you could accepted, etc. So you might still have a chance.
 
i hate every one of you who accepted and got in, b/c i accepted and it was full............................


this is only the 2nd invite i've gotten, and this is the 2nd time it has been full.

once again i would like to say thank you, i hate all of you who got in.. i'll see you all in hell
 
I just got in last night too. Don't know too much about the game yet, but I'll read through the previews of it. Good to see other CAGs get in though.
 
Yup in as well. If playing WoW with phatty has taught me anything its that he'll end up short and violent. Think about it.

[quote name='Scorch']I almost wonder if they saved a slot for me because I'm on the GAP. I registered quite late.[/quote]

It was probably more that there are 5000 slots.

I missed Crash N Burn due to the fact that there were only 2000 slots and I tried to register like 7 hours after the e-mail


I am a member of GAP as well


as far as screen name, look for Casey Ryback
 
I'm also a member of GAP although I don't think I've ever contributed ANYTHING to their site. Oh well.

And yes, I will be short and violent! :lol: (Although I am pissed that Blizzard removed Dwarven Mages from WOW).
 
[quote name='gamefreak']How does distrubution work for these things? They just send you a CD?[/quote]

you get an envelope from FedEx that contains a game in a paper sleeve and a plain instruction manual
 
Why can't I ever get in on these things?

I have broadband, have registered my NA, am a member of GAP, and have checked that box for betas.
 
Well Crash I have a suspicion it has alot to do with that damn sig of yours. The racoon haunts me in my dreams the swaying...the rocking...there is no hope for this world...

not being invited at all is better than receiving an invite and clicking it and finding out that during the... maybe 7 hours i was at school, all the positions were filled...
 
[quote name='Rig']Okay guys....what website are you talking about when you say GAP?[/quote]

GAP is Game Advisory Panel. An organization designed by SONY to get feedback from gamers.
 
This just arrived in my Inbox.

Welcome to the public beta test for Konami’s S.L.A.I. Phantom Crash for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system!

Congratulations on being selected to participate in this exclusive public beta test.

As a friendly reminder, this beta test will require a broadband connection. Use of a dialup-based Internet connection to participate in gameplay will not be possible.

Due to some unexpected delays in the preparation of beta materials, we are unable to provide an estimate for the beta kit drop-date. We will update all S.L.A.I. Phantom Crash exclusive beta testers via a Latest News posting on our beta website as soon as we have any drop-date information.


A delay? Already? This reeks of Smackdown vs. Raw except they don't even know when the beta will actually start!
 
just got this
Thank you for your patience and understanding throughout the process for Konami's S.L.A.I. Phantom Crash public beta.

The expected drop-date for all S.L.A.I. Phantom Crash beta kits is October 20, 2004.

To accommodate the delay in the shipment of the beta kits, the beta end date has been extended. The S.L.A.I. Phantom Crash public beta will now be ending as of midnight (Pacific Standard Time) on November 4, 2004.

Enjoy the game and have fun. When you're ready to tell us what you think, please provide feedback via the public beta website (http://www.betatest.us.playstation.com). Your input is valued and appreciated.

Thanks for participating in this opportunity. We look forward to your feedback!

Please note some other important guidelines:

Delivery of Your Beta Test Kit
 
I got an email for this a while ago. I would beta test, but I can't because PS2 online or Xbox Livw won't work at college, so I can't beta test this time.:( Well, I'll still probably get the game though.
