&lt;h3&gt;&lt;font color="orange"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Battlefield Heroes&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
Listen up soldiers! This game is very tight under wraps...I mean seriously, you look on there website and you see very little change, but they are calling for a release this summer, so whats up. Here is what you need to keep a look out for:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;OPEN BETA!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
They have said a few times in the past that there will be a public beta. Currently, they initiated an online login system for &lt;a href="http://battlefield-heroes.com/" target="new"&gt;The Battlefield Heroes Website&lt;/a&gt; which in my guess, may allow for limited &amp;quot;open beta&amp;quot; registration, depending on who signs up. In the past, I have seen sites have login systems where you register and you get practically...well nothing really. Then one day, POOF!, the online registration for some reason unknown, just disappears. In the past, this may signify as an e-mail collection bucket in which everyone who registered in a given time period will receive an e-mail to participate in &amp;quot;public beta.&amp;quot; The use of a user name and password allows for those who did register to login to a secure location given by EA so they can play while saving their presets/characters etc. This theory may not be true but I have seen this in the past so for your own sakes, its always a good reason to register, even if in the end result, you get nothing, at least you gave it a shot in which something good may have possibly came out of it.&lt;br /&gt;
They are also looking for german and french speakers to help do some foreign language work for the game. If anyone wants to get behind the scenes look on this game and has those abilities, check out that website, you won&amp;#39;t regret it.
&lt;hr /&gt;
More to come.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.paradisesgarage.com:443/mcweb2/aggbug.aspx?PostID=2104" width="1" height="1"&gt;</content><author><name>rush retrospective</name><uri>https://www.paradisesgarage.com:443/mcweb2/members/rush-retrospective/default.aspx</uri></author></entry></feed>
