Once again, the surveys were used to make final decisions on who is in and who is not. At least 75% of your beta testers were already chosen before the surveys came out and thats why you see so many testers that never received a survey. They didnt need o fill one out because they already met MS's requirements.

I'm sorry, Crazy, but I don't buy that. There are too many guys (and girls, no offense meant) who were accepted that are doing one of the following:

1. I got this Beta kit email... will someone explain what the whole beta thing is about?

2. I got the Beta email, ordered the kit. Do I need a router, do I need cat-5 cables, etc.

3. I got the Beta email, and I don't even have an Xbox.


If the majority of the Beta testers had already been chosen because "they met the requirements", you wouldn't be seeing this kind of thing.

It's over, it's done with, whatever. It's just frustrating to be sitting on the sidelines watching a bunch of people who were chosen "because they better met the requirements", when in reality, they don't have a clue.

I've given up on Xbox until the Live release. I'm playing America's Army on my PC.
