Guess whos a Socom II Beta Tester?

[Grumpy]

beta testing can be burdensome at times. I do a lot of software beta testing for large companies and if you're a TRUE beta tester (one who tries to break it instead of just playing with it), it can become tiring with all the reports that you need to file.

The pros of beta testing is that you get to play with cool shit before anyone else does and most times, you get the product for free as a thank you. Microsoft is notorious for that. The company I worked for at the time had a partnership with Microsoft and I ALPHA tested Windows 95 back in the day. I had a fully licensed commercial release a month before it hit the market as a thank from Billy boy himself.

Rooner, just make sure you read the terms and conditions they send you. You should make sure you can meet their obligations.

then again, maybe I'm being too synical and business like on this one. It's only a damn video game.
