    Uhmm is this a good or bad thing?

    Employee Beta for SC2?

    I want to scan the download for viruses if there are any and it seems legitimate and not illegal.
    So I am not willing to do this because of the strings that may be attached. On that note who's up to it?

    I think this is a joke to see how many people will flock to it.

    Since it requires b.net log in.

    It may be a joke but we won't know that until somebody tries it!

    I also call Not it. Now it is official.

    EDIT: Well if it is a virus then how about we have a member download it who has an anti virus program that scans it before it finalizes the download.

    Dude thats horrible, you can easily tell. Blizzard I would make a safe bet would announce its been leaked and just look at the coment, thetuber1 ? Classic multiple acount name. Dont ever trust it if its not from blizzard, its simply not worth it. He actually made multiple videos of that, making fake youtube accounts saying how it works. Dont trust it.

    Well.. it's definitely a hoax. That screenshot was around the time Starcraft 2 debuted on 2007 during a Blizzard announcement, hence the old models. Don't waste your time with these videos. It is most likely a phising scam.

    It is a fake having cross referenced a few accounts there. He actually used a load of other accounts in another video on what might be his main account. The video is at this link.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_D27tAmKw8&feature=channel_page

    The other video is just another "Beta Key leaked on the Web" video. So calm down it is not real. Just someone trying to mess with the world and garner attention to their one man circus. Its sad really.

    Here's what gets it for me. Even if it were real, it requires your battle.net account... which if you're like me is linked to your CD keys and your WoW account. So say I go download this and manage to play SC2 beta on it against Blizzard's wishes, and they find out? Bye bye battle.net account, bye bye WoW characters, hello CD key and account bans on all of my Blizzard product I've ever purchased. F that, kids.

    Who called it, I DID! Anyway ya he put multiple accounts to make people trust it, and probably deleted comments that said it was bad.

    5. I still think I shouldn't have got them seeing as how I took the risk of corrupting my own computer in order to post the results to others but whatev, they've long expired. No one cares about this experience thing anyway :D

    I got three for insulting Jisse.

    Mine were deserved though.
