Get an invitation for Starcraft 2 Beta Test

Although I don’t usually write about games on this blog, I have to say something about Starcraft 2, the new game from Blizzard.  Many people play World of Warcraft, I think probably millions, but I prefer real time strategy games, and actually this is the only game I play anyway. I played the original Starcraft years ago, and the new Starcraft 2 has the same great gameplay, maybe even better, and many more things that make it more complex. Not to mention the graphic is really good, and it doesn’t kill your PC.

Anyway I don’t want to say to much about the game (it’s better if you play and see for your self how it is) that’s not the reason I post this, I usually write on Sensoria.ws about music, photography or design… well you could say this is a great game design :)

You can’t find Starcraft 2 in the shops yet, I’ve got an invitation from Blizzard to play the Beta Test, before the game is officially launched, and many people got one as well but they’re given kind of random. But I’ve got another invitation from Blizzard to give to a friend to play Starcraft 2 for free until the beta testing is finished, so I decided to give it to someone who really want’s to play Starcraft 2 before the official launch date.

Ok, let’s cut to the chase, I’m giving the invitation for Starcraft 2 Beta Test for free, all you have to do is comment here and say why wold you like to play the new Starcraft 2. The most interesting comment will get an e-mail from me with the key you need to download and play Starcraft 2 on Battle Net, yeah with other people, the most fun way to play it :). You’ll have to have an Battle Net account in order to download Starcraft 2 and use the invitation, that’s Blizzard’s requirements, but you can get one account if you have any original Blizzard game.

I will choose a winner from the one’s who commented, and announce it here, in a couple of days, on May 20th. Don’t forget to leave your e-mail address  when you comment so I can send you the beta key.

Here’s the Official Cinematic Trailer of Starcraft 2 for those who didn’t see it:

The last day you can comment for the Starcraft 2 Beta Key is May 19th. You can pre-order Starcraft 2 and buy it from Amazon, just click the link bellow:

Edited on May 20th:

Thank you for all your comments. The winner is Razvan, I’ve sent him an e-mail with the Beta Key. I’m sorry for everybody else, I wish I could have more keys to give to everybody, but unfortunately I don’t have. But I hope to see you all in the game sometime in the future…

Great collection of free icons

Are you looking for some icons for your design ? The internet is full of resources, you can find vast collections of icons that probably will suit your needs, but how does ‘free’ sound ? It sure sounds better, so I’ve searched for a collection of free icons and I came across a great list provided by icondock.com with dozens of free collections that total a couple of thousands free icons.

You can use these nice looking icons in your design of a web page, blog or whatever, even on your desktop.
