GordanVanDyke said:Steam Beta: Yes there was a leaked image of a Package file we propped on Steam. People with illegal accounts can see games in this environment, but this is not a Beta in the term of Public Test Beta, but a real development Beta installer client for the Steam version of the full game. We are however working with Steam to have the Public PC Beta available on Steam, but can't confirm this quite yet so cross your fingers Steam users.
From the Battlefield blog. But that was from a while back. Lincoln Hershberger twittered that we should be expecting it any time now. But that was yesterday.

apparently Mass Effect 2 preloading has started on D2D so we can probably expect Steam to do something this weekend
just like they did with Dragon Age

BFBC 2 is in the coming soon section but the page hasn't been put up yet. Most likely you will be able to pre purchase today. Regarding a 4-pack, it doesn't seem like it unfortunately. Also, Dragon Age DLC will be up on coming soon section soon.

1CC Racing Mega Pack available:
- 4x4 Hammer
- A.I.M. Racing

- Death Track Resurrection
- Streets of Moscow

Are these games any good? There is no demo for them and only a few have trailers. For US$ 14.99 I may byte it...

Hell yes! I am ready to buy once Steam gets the page up.LovingSteam said:
I just noticed that they are selling the limited edition copy for $50, they are usually $60+ for some games.
Why is the 4 pack not looking likely? Someone said it wasn't going to happen or something? Bioshock 2's 4-pack doesn't show up as an individual entry on the main store page, and is actually an option in the game's page. We can't get to BC2's page, so I guess we have to wait.

That's right, I was following the murmurs of the 4-pack in this very thread. Was only kidding at the notion of a boycott BTW. Sorry, should have been more obviousMrbob said:
By comparison, I guess 2K really wants to push the multiplayer aspect of Bioshock 2. That, or they're just more PC savvy for having done this for Borderlands and now Bioshock.

The Bioshock and the others that had 4 packs showed up on the blob. This one doesn't show up as a 4pack.
Yeah I picked it up, haven't messed with it since I'm still knee-deep in KB:AP, but I plan on it. I generally enjoyed the fixed resources/troops missions in COH more than the more traditional ones. Like, the one where you break into the secret base at night and blow up the V2 rocket facility.DennisK4 said:

No information about getting into beta if you preorder on Steam, I am sure you can but I want confirmation before I buy.
EDIT- Nevermind, they put it up now.

Looks like the LE is listed and going by the front of the steam page there's a beta from the 28th jan to feb 25th.
Now i pray a 4 pack, even if loving says there isn't one!

I gave it 30 minutes and it started working again *shrug*brain_stew said:
I'm interested in battlefield as I need a good feature rich shooter other then TF2
battlefield heroes left a sour taste in my mouth but I know that game was whipped together in a month for money raking, but the gunplay in that game was rather crap, how different is the main battlefield series?

The GTA IV DLC packs are a steal compared to that.

$39.99 is a lot for an expansion. I love Dragon Age so I will probably end up buying it, but there being no incentive whatsoever to pre-order so I will wait until it gets released before buying it. I really don't see why companies put up pre-purchase options for games on digital download services without offering some kind of added incentive. You pre-order in a store so you can guarantee that there will be a copy available when you come in to buy it on the release day. You don't have to worry about them running out of stock for a digital download, though.

the DA expansion really should be $30 on PC since it's $40 on the consoles...
and I guess I'll pass on Bad Company 2 since there's no 4-pack

Its not a Steamworks title so the chances are very slim to nil.
