I was trying to play Aion last weekend and couldn’t get a FREE beta key code. Oh well, there is a way you can get a beta key code by pre-order at your local game store or online store. Right now, GameStop and EBGames are taking Aion pre-orders, it comes with bonuses:

• Access to all Aion Beta Weekend events.
• Early Head Start access to Aion live game.
• Pre-selection character and server
• In-game items: exclusive spirit ring, star-boosting hat and XP Talisman.
• Chance to win a Alienware Notebook or other prizes.

So if you are a gameaholic like me, go ahead, head to the store and get the key code. Right now, I am installing and downloading the Aion client (5371.7 MB in total).

StarCraft and Diablo was my favorite games ever back in year 2000. I had few long nights and days just for these games. Well, it was the best game at the time. After 10 years, Blizzard is on demand again with the 2 new sequels, they are StarCraft 2 and Diablo III on its way.

So, if you are interested in the beta opt-in, please log in your battle.net account management and do few clicks. Here is how:

1. Go to https://us.battle.net/account/management
2. Under the “Manage My Games” section, click on “Add a Game”.
3. Find any your old StarCraft or Diablo CD Key, and input it in “Enter Game Key” (you can merge with your WoW CD key).
4. Go back to “Home”, under “Manage My Games”, click on “Beta Profile Settings“.
5. Click on “Download Beta Opt-In Application” for either PC or Mac to save the application to your hard drive.
6. Run the file “SystemCheck_enUS.exe” as administrator (it should check your system settings and then ask to upload it to Blizzard). Go ahead and click Send.
7. You should get a return page to confirm which games you’d like to beta test in. That’s it, you’re DONE.

Good luck guys. Here is a screenshot I got confirmed.
