Apparently, the beta is exclusive to the PS3 and will not come out on the PC of 360. I don't see how that makes any sense but i figured i'd post it and see the responses :rockout:

EDIT:

CDdude rightfully squashed this rumor from gamespot.

Thank you

What i have heard:

A multiplayer beta for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be available on PlayStation 3 come November 19 and then hit PC in December, developer DICE announced today.

Those in North America can gain access to the PlayStation 3 beta by pre-ordering the game from GameStop, with those in Europe and Asia told to be on the lookout for "local opportunities." The December-due PC beta, meanwhile, will be open to all.

But that's not all, as a downloadable multiplayer demo will hit PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 "early next year," presumably before the shooter's retail release on March 2.

Its for all systems, but the PS3 will be getting the Beta first.

IMO you should read the stories from the dev's mouth: http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/

"Not a PS3 Owner?
Coming December, we will invite players to participate in a PC open beta. Then, early next year, all players worldwide will get to experience this premier shooter when we releases a Battlefield: Bad Company 2 multiplayer DEMO on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC."
