Pre-order MAG and get exclusive beta access

Game retailer Gamestop is currently running a pre-order offer for Sony's upcoming online 256-player shooter MAG that will allow immediate access to the beta test of the game that is currently running. In order to take advantage of the offer you must have a PlayStation Network account (of course) as the game is online only. Gamestop's pre-order offer also includes an exclusive in-game character skin (pointing to an inevitable downloadable content program for the final release, no doubt.)

The game is currently scheduled for release on January 26, but the beta is running right now. From this coming Monday (11/9) the beta will include all of the maps and skill trees that will be present in the final release.
