MAGS beta on the way

MUCH-anticipated MMO shooter MAGS is getting closer to release - and a lucky few of us(!) will hopefully get the chance to try it out before the rest.
It has been officially announced that a beta of the game is to be released in the not-too-distant future, allowing the lucky chosen few to have first look at the game, which will allow up to 256 people to play together online.
If this works as everyone hopes it will, it could be the biggest game to hit the PS3 so far - and would undoubtedly boost hardware sales.
So, fingers crossed - and let's hope a beta key wings its way this way!
