Blur multiplayer beta sets a date photo

For those of you out there who are looking forward to Blur and all its real racing/kart racing action there's something to look forward to now. Dan Amrich, Activision writing news guru guy, has finally cleared up when the beta will be starting. There seemed to be some confusion so here it is.

"Several websites will be launching contests and giving away beta tokens starting on Tuesday, March 2. The gameplay sessions that those tokens unlock does not begin until Monday, March 8. This March 1 date that some media sites are reporting is not the right date for the public beta," he stated on his blog, One of Swords.

Gee, I wonder what websites will be giving away those tokens? Does anyone know a popular gaming blog that runs awesome contests and might do something like that at some point? Who could one of those sites be, I ask? I have no clue, really.

Psssh, if I have to go to some stupid gaming blog to win a beta key, then count me out. I only go to legitimate news sites that feature JOURNALISM.

This is that racing game that isn't quite Split/Second, right? Pass.

This is the next racer from Bizarre Creations (The PGR guys). I wouldn't dismiss it so quickly.

Since clearly everyone likes Split Second better, I nominate myself to win a code.

I win.

Got a few friends who've been on the Activision internal beta and judging by the banter they've been throwing about in party chat it sounds like a pretty cool game.
