So it's all going to go beserk tomorrow at 8pm UK time on the PS Store. That's the time Sony will release a Killzone 3 theme that will also grant Killzone 3 beta access to the first 10,000 PS Plus subscribers that download it.
It's all kicking off a day earlier than the October 14 date originally announced, but SCEE has now asserted: "We can now confirm that [the theme] will go live in the EU PlayStation Store at 8pm in the UK, 9pm CET and 6am in Sydney, Australia on 13 October."
We can see this getting very messy.
The process is simple; hand over some dosh to become a PS Plus subscriber if you're not one already. Sit tight until 8pm then log into the PS Store and be one of those first 10,000 to download the Killzone 3 theme. We'd like to think Sony will have it clearly signposted in the store. Then wait until October 25 when you'll receive an email with the PSN code to get the beta. Simples.
How will you know right away if you're one of the first 10,000? We don't know.
How will you get to it before the other billion gamers all frantically entering, exiting and re-entering the PS Store from 7:50pm? We don't know.
