Killzone 3 includes admission into SOCOM 4 multiplayer beta

Yo, readers: Sony heard you like shooting, so it put a shooter in your shooter so you can shoot while you're shooting. More specifically, the publisher has announced that both regular and Helghast Edition copies of Killzone 3 will include vouchers which give early access to the SOCOM 4 multiplayer beta.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like the beta will arrive at the same time as Killzone 3's launch -- Zipper Interactive's Chris Roper explained on PlayStation Blog, "To find out when the SOCOM 4 multiplayer beta begins, be sure to check back at SOCOM.com once you pick up your copy of Killzone 3, hitting shelves on February 22nd." Perfect; so we'll have some time to get really used to Killzone 3's control scheme before switching over to SOCOM 4's presumably wildly different control scheme. We anticipate that we'll be eating quite a few of our own accidentally-thrown frag grenades.

KZ3 was already a must buy, but nowI get a chance to play SOCOM 4 ... Not bad SONY.

SOCOM 4 better not suck or ... well it won't be pretty

This is particularly nice for me, as I want to try Socom 4 (my only Socom was Confrontation... yuck) and will be picking up KZ3... nice.

Lets hope the Hacker barrage doesnt eat up the Killzone 3 and Socom 4 beta

I already planned on getting Killzone 3. Adding the Socom 4 beta makes it even more sweeter to me.

Who cares. SOCOM is garbage now with it's regen health.

Telling me I need to pay $60 to play the beta. Ha.

Sony should pay us to play that casualized garbage.

PS: Thanks for killing SOCOM Sony.

Thats cool since im interested in socom 4 and already planed to buy KZ3.

Well KZ3 is already a must buy so with this its even double win

I didn't really need an incentive to buy Killzone 3, but this will do nonetheless :)

Yeah, it's actually kind of strange. It would have made sense to attach this to a new IP, or even something like it to KZ2, to try to get people into it. I think KZ3 will do just fine one it's own.

Maybe it's more about the timing of the game and the beta.
