Girl With A Stick, aka the Resistance 2 beta

by Andrew Yoon { Aug 15th 2008 at 12:55PM }

Do you have a friend on your XMB playing a game called Girl With a Stick? Well, guess what: it's the Resistance 2 closed beta. While these lucky few can enjoy some hot girl on stick action, the rest of us will have to wait until the public beta in September.

[Thanks, Zee!]

The 'girl with a stick' name refers to the project insomniac had before they stopped and made the first ratchet and clank game instead all the way back on the PS2. I can't get Quore because I live in the UK, so I have no idea what everybody is talking about with this issue for the most part.

I'm playing it right now. The competetive is alright, its a bit different from R1, but the 8 player coop is a blast. There are some bugs like no sounds sometimes, but damn, its fun. The leveling mechanism is pretty cool too.

The important bit is the end there where he talks about the checkboxes and such and how to maximize your ability to get into betas:

--------------------------------------------
I just want to take the time out to let everyone who was allowed into the private beta, know that it is in fact a “PRIVATE BETA” which means you are not allowed to talk about the beta, or leak information outside of the beta to anyone who isnt apart of it. Insomniacs Infected will be checking multiple boards across the internet looking for anyone who breaks the NDA. If we catch you leaking information we will report you to IG directly and opt for you to be banned from the beta permantely.

For those of you wondering and speculating how some got in and how others didnt get in. First off being an annual subscriber to Qore will get you in early to September beta, ATM the list that we were shown on how people got in, Qore had nothing to do with it.
If you already participate in the Home beta that also had nothing to do with it, and sorry to say but not all GAP members were accepted either.
The Infected of MyResistance.net were granted access, as were top members of both official PS forums and MyRes were selected. Then others were just randomly selected.
If you Main account on your PS3 had an invalid email address, has the age under 18, or doesnt allow you to receive information and flyers from Sony then you were delisted.
So for future references, if you want to get selected into Sony betas make sure your over 18, you have those squares check marked, and that you have a valid email address on your main account. Otherwise you will continue to miss out on beta invites.
See many of you in September for the public beta.

Press triangle on your name and go from there.

Zoon...

...it's called "Girl With a Stick" and then you say have fun with "Girl On A Stick". Now I don't know about the rest of you, but there's a big difference.
