Beta Watch: Battlefield Heroes and Dawn of War II Want You

 
Here’s the scoop: Battlefield Heroes, EA’s free-to-play, browser-based FPS, is just about ready for the big show, but needs your help in the make-up room. And get this! So does Relic’s massively anticipated RTS Dawn of War II. Who will you rescue? Now allow us to blow your mind: you can have both .   For Battlefield, you need only follow this link to the dank den of EA’s sleeping monster. Once there, simply create an EA account, fill out a sign-up form and wait. Doing these steps out of order is inadvisable. Dawn of War II’s beta will officially brighten up PC gamers’ days on January 28th , but if you’d like early access (read: you could be playing it RIGHT NOW), you’ll need a copy of Dawn of War: Soulstorm. Luckily, Soulstorm just so happens to have been marked down to $7.50 on Steam . However, note that this sweet deal (75% off!) is temporary and will expire on January 28th. Now go! Don’t worry about us; we only want your happiness! read more (link)
