For those Sony PS3 gamers who were looking forward to trying out COD: World at War beta, we have some bad news for you. The online multiplayer beta for Call of Duty: World at War will only be available for PC and Xbox 360.
This is nothing new, when Infinity Ward launched Call of Duty 4 beta last year, it was only made available for the Xbox 360. That will do nothing to ease the anger of PlayStation 3 owners, but I guess it is something we will just have to live with.
An Activision representative did say that the reason why the online multiplayer beta for Call of Duty: World at War will only launch on the Xbox 360 and PC is because of increased server and connectivity data. Oh well, the game looks doomed from the start, I want modern weapons not old ones.

who cares, PS3’s oppinion on how the game runs online dosent matter, they get the scraps that didnt make it onto the 360, just seems to me that the game devolopers like the 360 better than the ps3, ps3 is garbage true fact, shut ur bawwwin up an go play ur resistance garbage
did it occur to the op, or anyone else harping on, that beta tests, especially ones open to public(no matter how limited) are 9 times outta 10 a stress test on the games servers
No offense meant towards the fine people who play on PSN, but your a very small miniority, PC and 360 aren’t-Look at the sells for any multiplayer cross platform title, and see which system sells more copies, logs more players etc…
I don’t think this was intended to be a snub although it appears alot of PS3′ers see it that way
As said in one of the above posts, if your that put off then beta on a PC, or god forbid a 360(Say what you will, but after 10+years clerk’n and managing game stores, most serious gamers have both consoles, but will only own up to their fav) and make your decision off that- Besides if any of you played CoD4, the differences are very little save for arguments on which looks better
See this is why the PS3 sucks balls? Treyarch know this so they didn’t bother to give u the WAW Beta. It rules by the way.
I dont think its just about ps3 i think they have been paid off because they wont even sell a collectors edition for ps3 so i just wont buy the game at all even though i own both consoles and a pc
seriously i don’t know why any game is ‘exlusive’ if they just sold it to pc, xbox360 and ps3 they would make far more money, this is just sony and ms battling it out to see who has the most moneyz. So far ms is winning its as simple as that as i said earlier u need to buy this game if your a cod fan don’t take the advice of all those so called “call of duty experts” who started at cod4 and think they know everythign about cod series.
Doesnt matter what happens, note the simple facts 33% of xbox 360s have fallen to the fate of the ring of death whilst a mere 0.2% of PS3 have had faults… But we all have faults Microsoft rush things and clearly show you rushing doesnt win the battle a large amount of gamers arent even using their Xbox’s anymore cause their constantly breaking down and trust me as a previous user of the Xbox 360 it was good at start but all the problems just arent worth it… PS3 will always be the more powerful and reliabile console.
“Oh well, the game looks doomed from the start, I want modern weapons not old ones.”
Lol. Your ignorant. It is going to be amazing. I’m in beta BTW.
Rob.W your the idiot because it is a DEMO….anyone who has Xboxlive can Download it NOOB. It was going to be a beta. but they decided to make it avaible to everyone. so RESEARCH B4 YOU TALK
Nothing new here guys, It was the same for COD 4. The x-box needs this kind of extra attention as it is lacking in everything else compaired to the PS3. What are they going for now like $150. I should buy one just to play the stupid Beta then throw it off a cliff.
thats why i play PC cause with PS3/XBoX its always problems that dont make any since. if i were a ps3 user i’d not buy this, only support games that support u fair trade.
