Battlefield 3 beta is ready, DICE waiting for Sony and Microsoft 124

According to a new report emerging from French Battlefield portal planete-battlefield.fr, Battlefield’s French community representative “Kusa” has spilled the beans on the status of the Battlefield 3 beta: it’s ready for release, and the only thing DICE is waiting for is a content approval from Microsoft and Sony, in order to get the beta running on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The PC version is ready as well, but DICE is holding back in order to get a simultaneous beta release across all platforms.
So far this is unconfirmed by DICE, but considering that Microsoft and Sony usually take at least a week or two in order to approve content (whether it’s DLC, game download, etc.), it’s not entirely unrealistic to assume that the beta is in fact ready, and that all we (and DICE) are waiting for is a go-ahead from the console makers.

"First point, the game displays the top right the small letter "beta". The beta is ready for XBOX. The LAN mode is not available on Battlefield 3, so we play online, against 12 Americans attending the same event that we, but at the other end of the world.
Again, no complaints about the graphic quality, the XBOX is comparable to the PS3 for my taste. Communication is much more on the PC platform and a bit on the PS3, but much less on the XBOX 360. From what I saw today, XBoîte is not far behind. And contrary to what some fear, console, does end up to 24 players will be felt in no rush mode and is not a problem. It remains to be seen on the Conquest mode. "
