I want to know why the beta only has the original six characters. I know you don't want to give everything in the beta to entice people to buy the game, but the demo I played at a Sony event on my college campus had all but four characters. I think this game should at least have Drake and Big Daddy, maybe even include Heihachi and Toro. The beta is still fun, but why so few characters?

I prefer the demo I played at eurogamer, since you get to play as all the available characters.

I can't seem to get through a single match without being discontinued. The game is alright but Kratos seems way overpowered. In fact, I noticed most players play as him.
