if you pre-order from EB, Gamestop, Best Buy, or CompUSA, you get a presell disc which contains the following:
Exciting cinematic trailer
Game screenshots
Electronic version of the City of Heroes Comic Book
Exclusive concept art
Paragon City map
Beta testing invitation (the only guaranteed way to join the beta test is through our registration process in the pre-order box)
Unique Prestige Character Power
Admittedly most of that isn't all that interesting, but the beta test invite and the power are pretty sweet. Especially since the disc doesn't cost you anything.

While I am interested in the game, I plan to stick to my "wait 3 month" rule on new MMOGs. Life (and time) is too short to deal with login errors and game crashes.

Bah, I have been waiting for a game ike this for a good while (I am one of those that if I did get powers, I would use them for good).
Sounds intregueing. I'll look into it.

Well, I desided to pre order it, so I'll give you my impressions of the beta when I am able.

Currently, I am busy with my 2 main MMORPGS. So, I think I'm going to take Shiz's advice and wait 3 months too!

This game is going live any moment? Man, how do I keep missing this stuff. I am eager to hear impressions.

No, this is the presell disk with the beta code that we're talking about, not the actual game itself. The game is scheduled for release in March or April.

I noticed my Lineage 2 disk had the opening movei on it. It's kind of gotten my interest but I'm gonig to hold off on awhile cause FFXI has my attention and I'm thinking Lineage 2 will also hook me.
