We’ve heard that Dota 2 Beta Keys have already been handed out to Dota pro-teams/players. We’re almost sure that the teams that participated in the Dota 2 tourney: The International already have theirs. A Steam Games Dev also posted a tweet about getting a beta key.

“Work is slowly grinding to a halt as the DOTA2 beta keys are distributed around the office.”
– Magicka Developers via Twitter

All is not lost though as we’ve also heard rumors that Valve is planning to get the ball rolling on Dota 2 with a large-scale testing which will begin this Fall. So if this were true it would be safe to assume that almost, if-not all of the people who sent their emails in for the beta registration will get a dota 2 beta key. If you haven’t registered, head on over to the Official Dota 2 site to register.

If you have new rumors about the beta testing or know where to get a dota 2 beta key, please leave a comment below.

Thank you!

Again, you know what this means right? You can now jailbreak your iPhone and run unsanctioned apps that cannot be found on the App Store without having to re-connect your device to a computer each time it restarts. A Dev-team member, MuscleNerd, tweeted yesterday that the “redsn0w tool was updated to include 4.3.2 untether.” Download links and more information right below the fold.

The good news was released via twitter by MuscleNerd – “redsn0w tool was updated to include 4.3.2 untether.” The jailbreak works on iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, first-gen iPad and 3rd and 4th generation iPod Touch. Unfortunately for iPad 2 owners, it’s still not compatible with your device. If you want to make use of it you need to download redsn0w 0.9.6RC13 for Windows or Mac, then the iOS 4.3.2 IPSW file. Once you’ve done that you connect your device to your computer and run the redsnow tool, following the instructions.

I will be adding more SC2 keys to the list in a short while. If all of the keys haven’t worked for you, you can bookmark this page to help you get back and check for updates.

I would just like to make this perfectly clear. I won’t be able to give everyone a key because I only have two (2) extra keys. I’m sorry but if you don’t get selected, you will just have to look for a key elsewhere.

Here’s what you need to do to get a free League of Legends Beta Key.

1. Send me an email me using the contact form containing your reasons why you think you deserve to be given a League of Legends Beta Key. Please make sure email title is clear because I might discard it (I also get a lot of spam).

2. Subscribe to the blog’s feed using the form below so that you will receive my next posts. I will be writing an update next week containing the winners of the beta key. Don’t worry about your email address because you could unsubscribe anytime after you receive the follow-up post and I don’t send out spam. ^_^

.. and that’s it!

Good luck to everyone!

I have been receiving a lot of emails and comments from people asking for more Heroes of Newerth Beta Keys. I’m sorry but I just didn’t bother to reply to everyone because of the sheer number of people asking for one and figured I’d just do a post to save time.

In the last update, I already sent out all the HoN Beta Keys that I had. The winners were listed on a previous post.

This will be the second update for my Beta Key giveaway and I’m glad to announce.. that I will be giving away more beta keys. If you are still interested in getting one, I would suggest that you head over to this post:  Heroes of Newerth (HoN) Beta Keys and read the details on how to get one.

I will be making another post listing the winners in a weeks time. That would be all and pleasant day to everyone.

This page of my blog is dedicated to finding StarCraft 2 Beta Keys. Rest assured guys, I will do everything that I can to get hold of them Star Craft 2 Beta Keys.

Update: Blizzard will be handing out Star Craft 2 Beta Keys to people who attend BlizzCon this year. You will need to purchase a $100 ticket to enter the convention.

Update: StarCraft 2 Beta Keys are being sold in ebay. The prices range from $200 to a whopping $450 for each beta key. I don’t know if its worth it but I would just like to let you know. There are also a lot of scammers popping out because the demand of the beta keys tremendously soared after the announcement regarding StarCraft 2 Beta.

Update: I’m still unable to get hold of a StarCraft 2 Beta Key. I’m really hoping to get one for free but after I exhaust all my options, I think I’m going to settle with buying a beta key on e-bay. I badly want to try out this game and on top of that it would be nice to get to practice way before everyone else does.

Update: I just saw a crack version of the StarCraft 2 beta release. Basically, you will be able to play the game against an AI but you won’t have the multiplayer feature of the game. You will need a beta key to unlock that feature.

I would like to know what you guys think. Do you want me to put up details here on how to play StarCraft 2 without the beta key or you would like me to still look for a free Starcraft 2 Beta Key. Hit me with a comment below on what you guys think.
