Massively
Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPGs)
in the beta phase are putting the final touches on
the game and weeding out as many bugs as possible

beta testing phases (where players get to try the
game for free and give feedback to the game's
developers) while others are more particular about
who they accept as beta testers. Note that
