same thing happened to me a few days ago. so i went out and got another dvd and it worked. so now i have one used code and one incomplete code missing three digits. i'm now in the process of updating the mgo client to v 1.1 and am at 98% using p2p connection (going ass slow) since the direct download link game me errors.

AngelsDontBurn says:
(# 3) on 04/17/2008 00:40

Yeah, I have another friend of mine telling me a buddy of his got 9 digits too. I was like "wtf?"

The update DL was SLOW AS HELL!

MAKE SURE ITS IN CAPS... oops... i mean.. make sure its in caps... thats why mine wasnt entering correctly

Pedro Blandino says:
(# 5) on 04/17/2008 01:05

the caps is not the issue. its im missing 3 digits to my code D:

Jayeugene says:
(# 6) on 04/17/2008 01:11

oh! crap! make some up? lol you only have a one in a many many thousands chance to get it right. That really does suck though... pretty hard...Konami fails at this for sure.

Toneman says:
(# 7) on 04/17/2008 01:21

So you only got a 9 digit code? Bummer.

animateria says:
(# 8) on 04/17/2008 01:29

I got mine from the DVD...

They had broken beta codes on the DVD?

Pedro Blandino says:
(# 9) on 04/17/2008 01:33

yes i got mine from the dvd.

Redzie says:
(# 10) on 04/17/2008 01:43

I have a 9-digit code, am I screwed?
I dont have a PS3 to test this on maybe in a couple of days.

Pedro Blandino says:
(# 11) on 04/17/2008 01:44

well my code dose not work at all. and konami hasn't e-mailed me.

(# 12) on 04/17/2008 02:10

Maybe... it's Maryl's codex number???

Toneman says:
(# 13) on 04/17/2008 02:34

Yes, if you have a 9 digit code you're screwed. It should be 12 digits and look like this: 1234-5678-9012

aj2good4you2 says:
(# 14) on 04/17/2008 02:44

its been said that there was a printing error so this problem is actually quite common. the gamestop i work at had like 20 people calling in today to complain. luckily mine had all the digits

Pedro Blandino says:
(# 15) on 04/17/2008 02:51

mine looks like this 1234-5678-9

i've heard if you have a 9-digit code you might be able to download it if you've got a japanese account.

Kryptinite says:
(# 17) on 04/17/2008 06:42

Lucky for me, my code worked. Which is awesome.

wrathofwarlock says:
(# 18) on 04/17/2008 06:42

if your not living in japan it wont work :/ i found out the hard way

Gameboi says:
(# 19) on 04/17/2008 08:39

I'm in the same boat as you. I should've known something was up, when it ended in a "J."

Genki-JAM says:
(# 20) on 04/17/2008 09:28

Balth feels your pain.

I'll try to snag a couple extra beta keys from my local gamestops for you and someone else..

king3vbo says:
(# 21) on 04/17/2008 10:13

I got lucky, mine was all 12. That sucks

Jayeugene says:
(# 22) on 04/17/2008 11:05

Hey, guys... since you are claiming that its a Japanese code... then why dont you pull the ol' make a japanese account on your ps3 and download the beta from there... it should still be available for play on your primary ps3 account!!!!

Genki-JAM says:
(# 23) on 04/17/2008 11:21

@Jayeugene

Because in order to get it you need to set up a JP Konami ID that uses real PS3 JP info. Konami has been checking to see which people have real info and which people don't and have been deleting their Konami ID accounts and taking them out of the beta (you need the ID to log into the beta).

I too got a 9 digit code and still no response from Konami.

Pedro Blandino says:
(# 25) on 04/17/2008 18:34

yeah, i called konami and got BS back about e-mailing them -_-

IF this was a year ago, we would all be loling at the fact that Sony's make or break title for the platform was plagued by a logistical nightmare.

Nowaday, heaven forbid a blogger has his 360 brick, and its BAAAAWWW City.
