Should I list Gaffers tags who get mentioned here in OP so we can get Gaf games going (if the demo works like that?)

Sure..
Has anyone else here gotten in yet?
It's lonely in here. :[

The game is an effing blast though, love it.

Gamespot is giving away codes too. http://www.gamespot.com/event/codes/blur-beta/

 

[Chris R]

Came in expecting a PC game since ya know, fileplanet and stuff.

Left somewhat disappointed Stupid GOLD

 

[Comatoes]

I'd also like to give thanks. Used one of the Kotaku codes and did the email trick to get it to work. Seeya March 8th.

 

[enzo_gt]

Just signed up, awesome. Looking forward to this

 

[Phloxy]

Wow, must say, played for 3 hours straight, super impressed with the game. Takes me back to project gotham 2, with the awesome and super smooth online play.

Just finished playing for about 45 minutes, it's pretty fun. The first cars are definitely slow and busted, though, I only just unlocked one worth a damn. I haven't gotten into a 20-car battle royale yet but even 12 cars is insanity at the start and in jams. The tracks are clearly and deliberately designed not to handle all that traffic.

It's almost literally Mario Kart and Burnout sandwiched together. That said, it lacks Mario Kart's total wackiness and the brutal wrecks from Burnout so maybe that's why it feels like it's missing a little somethin' somethin' for me right now. It kind of splits the difference between them. Of course it's also mercifully missing MK's rubber band AI so that's a big plus.

I'm enjoying reading the favourable early impressions after all the hate this game has unfairly received.

I'ma huge BC fanboy, and my faith hasn't waivered.

 

[Macintosh360]

PlanetXbox360.com has a ton of beta codes left, if anyone is looking - basically it's an automatic win if you follow the steps - if anyone makes a GAF thread on the topic for me PM me and I'll send you a free beta code.....

[Hieberrr]

Holy shit I can't believe I never knew about this game :\
Wish I had a 360 right now, but I guess I'll wait for the PC release.

 

[big_z]

how did you guys get download codes already? it says march 8th codes will go out in the email they sent.

btw im sick of signing up for every developer/publishers unique service, fucking stop!

 

[k0ji-wd]

For those already playing. . .is the photo mode available in the beta?

 

[WasteLand Soldier]

once registered where do i find the game on my 360? and will this work if i used an email address different from the one on my live acct?

 

[Stop It]

I got an email from Gamespot saying the beta was available, needles to say I signed up sharpish.

When you get your code, put it in 'redeem code' on your 360 and you'll get to download it

 

[Metiphis]

I got in but I have too many things to play right now ARG!

The external beta phase started March 1st in limited capacity.

 

[ichigo kurosaki]

just signed up. thanks!

 

[Family Fry]

Got into limited beta also, it's a bit like Wipeout but in 4 wheels. Fantastic fun though, it has that just one more go feel to it.
Although what did surprise me is when you level up to level 8, you unlock a new gametype Motor Mash (4-20 Players) It is basically Destruction Derby with weapons. The level 'The Bowl' sees you all mad dashing for weapons, lots of carnage with 20 players and highest score wins. Ah the good old days of wreckless carnage.

 

[MmmSkyscraper]

Got mine on Giant Bomb.

 

[Witchfinder General]

Could you guys post screen grabs? I'd love to see how the game is coming along.

I've been watching some utterly breathtaking clips of the beta on Youtube...man, this game looks like all sorts of speedy, explodey fun!

Cool, thanks. Game looks great. Probably the racing game I'm most looking forward to this year.
