If you missed the previous 130 iterations, this is GameSpotting, and if you want next, get your quarters up and get your wrist brace tightened up. Following in the wake of the latest MGS3 trailer, we get right to work on extrapolating significance like a lit major rereading Moby Dick for the 100th time, and following the latest World of Warcraft beta patch, we take a look at some of the curiosities found in beta test communities. After this round, we invite you to hit the GameSpot Community, and if you're feeling particularly articulate, learn how you can participate in the GameSpotting experience.
