PC Gamer Beta Codes: What a Racket!

in Everquest II
PC Gamer can kiss my ass.  They expect me to go out there and buy identical magazine after magazine just so I can keep getting error messages?  BS.

     You can win a code to beta test EverQuest II but the chances are very slim. That's what he was complaining about.

    While in the store the other day, I noticed so many PC Gamer magazines opened, and to my surprised found someone actually copying the codes from each book.  Then I get on EQII's forum and saw where someone else had done the same thing, opening the magazine and copying the codes.  I believe this thing has gotten way out of hand with people.

    Really sad

    I bought a copy of PC gamer from Wal-Mart.  No luck. Although, friend of mine bought 2 copies. Both of which were winners. Looks like he is two boxing EQ2 beta lol.

    What's really sad is in the one store I was in yesterday, they only had June PC Gamers, and they were all open...people are getting a bit crazy.

    No offence but, if you can't afford a few magazines maybe you shouldn't be playing at all image. Because, once this game goes live, you actually have to pay -every- month =P (minus the 30 days free mind you.). image

    Are you saying because a magazine runs a contest and the magazine costs a few dollars to buy its ok to effectivly steal from them, and even worse from other customers who may buy the magazine to find their code already used?

  • DarkAngelGCDarkAngelGC Member UncommonPosts: 32
    funny how all the PC Gamer "winners" will actually be invited last into beta.. this is such a freakn greedy scam.. -_-;

  • metalfoxusmetalfoxus Member Posts: 805
    These kids who say they are "stealing" the magazines or the codes are just trying to sound cool. Dont even bother listening to them.

  • styles74styles74 Member Posts: 222
    Actually I bet even opening the wrapping can be construed as destruction of property let alone stealing magazines.  Not very smart to admit and document that they are commiting a crime. image
