    haha, no problem with deal itself but

    Starting Etiquette
    New users shouldn't write I'm new, don't flame me etc.

    Now get coookin'!

      So many rules to learn. Wow! Thanks.

      I don't mean to be rude, but there's probably a reason people right that in the first place. (Because they do get flamed and are just trying to help).

        probably a reason people right that in the first place

        I don't think that's the write word? ;)

        But the 'L' next to their name indicates that they are new. Also, requesting not to be flamed is internet rule #1 for getting flamed. Fortunately the ozbargain community is so nice and flaming rarely occurs.

        • Yeah you're right ;)

          Maybe so but I think people are more likely to miss the L if the deal is interesting.

          Nah, that was a directive from the Syntax Squad…

  • Thank you!

  • Thanks OP. Hopefully this doesn't make me motion sick like the first Mirror's Edge :\

    • +3

      I don't see why it wouldn't.

      • I live in hope. And it's free!

    Bah, You have to agree to sign up to their spam in order to be apart of the Beta.

    • +7

      Eh? You don't have to. The last sign up checkbox is for the newsletter only.

    • I'm pretty sure that step is optional. I got the "thanks for signing up" appear, and the spam signup was at the bottom of that page.

    Please don't fry me.

    What about bake?

    • +1

      I'm baked right now!

    • Boil him, mash him, stick him in a stew

  • Cheers, still haven't played the first Mirror's edge though…

  • Thanks OP

  • Thanks!! It's just occurred to me that I never beat the first one. I bet I'll have to start again to remember how it works.

    REGISTRATION DOES NOT GUARANTEE ACCESS TO THE CLOSED BETA. PERSISTENT INTERNET CONNECTION, EA ACCOUNT, ACCEPTANCE OF (I) BETA AGREEMENT, (II) TERMS OF SERVICE AND (III) PRIVACY AND COOKIE POLICY REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE BETA. GAMEPLAY PROGRESS, ACHIEVEMENTS, CHARACTERS, CHARACTER DATA AND/OR ANY OTHER VALUE OR STATUS INDICATORS ACHIEVED THROUGH GAMEPLAY IN THE BETA WILL NOT TRANSFER TO MIRRORS EDGE CATALYST. BETA IS PRE-RELEASE SOFTWARE, MAY CONTAIN ERRORS/DEFECTS AND IS PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY.

    Emphasis mine. Caps EA's.

    • Nope, no one read it still.

  • Can't be bothered running around just to get this

      Apparently you don't have what it takes to be a runner then

    C'mon, is this really a deal? I fully support posting stuff like this, but surely this is a forum post in the gaming forum, not a deal.

    • I've always felt a bit iffy about this. There are plenty of software deals that I don't personally consider a "deal" and that includes this one and the recent The Division "deal". I also don't consider things like Pokemon events to be deals either as they hold no monetary value yet the moderators allow them to stay.

      The guidelines:

      In general, software, apps and eBooks that are always free and available to everyone should be posted in the forums, but if something that's not usually free is offered free for a limited time, it qualifies as a deal.

      I'm not sure whether this applies here since a beta is not totally representative of the full game and it's not like you get to keep the game once the beta ends.

      • It's a beta lottery, not a deal. The guidelines should be revised.

        To be clear, I am not having a go at the OP. I just think this is a gaming forum post.

  • Was going to sign up but it's not guaranteed. So I'll pass thanks anyway

    • +1

      I was going to sign up, but it requires an EA account.

      But damn it, I'm a big Mirror's Edge fan, so now I've sold my soul (privacy) to EA.

      • Me too. I've waited this long happy to wait a bit more lol

      • I know why EA received the most hated company award in America. It ranked worse than the big banks haha

        • Was this more of a comment or are you genuinely holding out on us?

          P.s. I hate them too but can't remember why - probably IAP

  • Thanks OP. Loved the first one. Had a look at their pre-order, $90!!! Dunno if that's USD or AUD. No way I'm paying that.

  • Well, got notification I've got the Beta for XB1, will be handy over the long weekend :)

    • Lucky. :(

      I signed up for the PC beta with 4 accounts but didn't get anything.
