All you fans of squad based FPS mulitplayer games in general and CoD in particular will be glad to know the demo of Call of Duty: World at War is now availalbe to everyone.  The Tech Report has the link to a demo that features three maps, all you need is to download it and grab a beta key by signing up at the CoD website.  Otherwise you will have to wait until November 11th.

“Many game publishers neglect to release demos of upcoming titles these days, so it’s surprising to see one offer a multiplayer beta of an upcoming blockbuster to the public. That’s just what Activision has done with Treyarch’s World War 2 shooter Call of Duty: World at War, however.

Shacknews says the World at War PC beta is now open to everyone, and you can grab it for free right here at FileShack. The beta installer weighs in at roughly 846MB, and users apparently need to register at the official Call of Duty website to get a beta key. Folks who participate can look forward to “addictive class-based multiplayer action,” upgradeable weapons, vehicles, and squad-based gameplay in three multiplayer arenas: a Japanese castle, an island in the Pacific, and a train depot in Europe.”
