September Qore heads to Skywalker Ranch, subscribers get MAG beta

by Xav de Matos { Sep 3rd 2009 at 10:00PM }

September's episode of Qore features a view from Skywalker Ranch, as the soundtrack to Naughty Dog's Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is mixed and mastered at George Lucas' famous estate. Qore also sits down with gear head Jay "Retired for 10 Seconds" Leno and talks about his involvement with PSP's long-in-development installment of Gran Turismo. But, the real meat of this month's episode is access to the upcoming MAG beta -- for gamers not lucky enough to have been invited already.

Users are automatically entered into the beta test -- set to begin later this month -- if they are Qore subscribers. If you're thirsty for large-scale online battles, users who subscribe to Qore on or before September 17 will also be invited. Sadly, purchasing September's episode alone will not net you the beta access. Even sadder, we're used to having to pay our way into these exciting bonuses.

Check out a preview for this month's episode after the break.

Damn it!

Qore suscribers have been getting quite lots of free stuff.
I guess it's time to become one!

:)

I'm contemplating that as well. Although I could care less for Qore seeing how I have my Ps3Fanboy (Joystiq) to supply me with all the PS3 news my heart desires.
=)

Uncharted soundtrack FTW! Love it!

Big D. @ Sep 4th 2009 2:12AM

Hell yes, some of the BEST music ever produced. Period.

Str84rumBk (PSN) @ Sep 4th 2009 1:40AM

i agree with you they are but the reason is because there the best faction imo. but im still thinking of which to join.

Confucius @ Sep 4th 2009 2:13AM

WTF, so we're basically paying for free stuff,
I love when companies try to sell free stuff that isn't actually free.
How much sense does it make to actually pay to be ina beta?
Btw, I'm not knocking anyone that subscribes to qore even if its just to play MAG, heck I might even end up doing that.

Windmill @ Sep 4th 2009 4:27AM

When you do the math though, it doesn't actually come off too bad.

How long do betas go for? A couple of weeks? I'm clueless on this so I might be wrong but think about it. Each episode of Qore is like $2. Well, you essentially are buying a game to download and play (the beta) for a couple of weeks for $2. That isn't so bad.

But then again, you're paying for a *beta*, so.... =P
