DAILY MANIFESTO

Want a Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Beta Key?

Posted on Thursday, September 1 @ 20:36:20 Eastern by

Hey guys, I walked out of the Valve booth at PAX Prime with two beta codes. I'll be using one to bring GR and its readers the inside scoop on Valve's revival of the original esport title. Currently, these beta codes are only available for use on the PC through Steam.

The beta will go live in October but you can secure your slot RIGHT. NOW. Of course, it wouldn't be special if you didn't earn the code, so here's what I'm proposing.

Whoever wins this will be spending a lot of time with me playing the Global Offensive beta, so I need someone who knows me well enough to get along. If you want a beta code for CS: GO, take the following steps:

Know what my "favorite" game is.
Think of a quote from that game.
And insert it in the comments below.

Easy enough right? Hopefully not, I'm looking for a specific quote from a specific game and if no one gets the exact quote, I'll just choose whoever comes up with my next favorite quote.... and so on.... and so on. Hopefully this will tide you guys over while I skip the Revolutionary Rant this week and continue to recover from PAX Prime and catch up with all of these previews I have to write.

    I am Heavy Weapons Guy. And this... [grips Sasha] is my weapon. She weighs 150 kilograms and fires $200 custom pulled cartridges at 10,000 rounds per minute. It costs $400,000 to fire this weapon... for twelve seconds.
