On the other hand, I fully support Betas. Beta testing is the coolest thing in the world, and I wish more companies would embrace public beta testing. Go Blizzard!

Demos....LOL. This is why I torrent stuff.

Edit: Also, screw EA.

indeed it would have to be a deposit, otherwise, this plan is sooooo screwed up. And the rest of your post is an example of why I think this thing is not going to work.
