Supercar Challenge BETA codes (PS3 only)

[The Bossman]

I have a BETA code which I'll activate later, but if you're interested, try and get one here - http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=220493

BTW, you MUST read these rules before you apply for one:

By participating in the SuperCar Challenge Beta Trial you are bound by the following conditions:

* Participants must not capture screenshots or footage of any part of the trial, whether it be for personal use or public use.

* Participants must not receive any financial gain from this Beta Trial.

* Times, achievements and ratings will not be carried over from the Beta Trial to the full game experience.

* System 3 Software Ltd cannot take any responsibility for language used over Voice Over IP.

As for the game, go to this Wiki link to read about it - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercar_Challenge. I'll post an opinion when I've actually played it. It's probably be buggy, because it's a BETA, but I'll get to see the game mechanics at least.

EDIT: Er. OK. I've played the BETA. Apparently it's old code now, and is at least a month old, but that's no excuse. It's due for release quite soon, so why is it so shoddy? The engine noises sound like high-end vaccum cleaners, the game runs like driving through treacle, all the tires are seemingly popped, making handling and turning any corner over 60 MPH difficult, and of the 3 cars to choose from, the only one which handles well is the Ferrari, and the code for that could well have been recycled from the Ferrari Challenge game. It's just a badly made game, but maybe the final version will be miles better. I don't think you should download this, if you get a key. It's rubbish.

If I had a PS3 I'd get the key JUST to take screenshots and video and post them all over the internet. But that's just me.

If you had a PS3, I would advise you to stay well away from this turd of a game. And to everyone else, if you do apply for a key, you'll only be downloading a very poor racing game BETA. Don't bother, is what I say.

Oh, I'd believe you. I wouldn't download it to play it. I'd download it just to leak pictures and videos of it. Nothing more. Because I'm a jerk like that.

bahahha i was thinking the same. how can they find out who with what code posted picture/video...

looking at just the front cover (again the "dont judge a book...") but just from the cover this game looks shite. it has a nice lineup of cars. that's it though.

anyone got any idea when GT5 is being released? have they set an official date?

[The Bossman]

It would be hard to track who leaked what and when, but even with the high probability that you'll get away with it, I wouldn't risk it. If I had 1 account and had only just signed up to the PSN, then maybe, but not after over a year. And for GT5, well, I heard it takes about 3 months, or even 6 months, to make 1 car, and the total amount is about 560. However, rumours are it'll be out Xmas this year, so who knows. I predict it'll slip into 2010, and come out in the summer.
