I just wanted to give a heads up to any and everyone that is interested in Starhawk about some dates for the multi-player beta. If you are a PlayStation Plus subscriber, you are a lucky one and have been playing since January 17th. If you’re one of the few. . .million that purchased a new copy of Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, like me, then you are able to jump in RIGHT NOW. Finally, if you’re part of the general public, then you are in on February 21st. So, now that you have all this information, whichever group you are a part of, download the beta, give them feedback, and enjoy the game. I know I am.
