Beta Testers have an important job, and releasing screenshots of an unfinished game can really screw with a game's launch. I understand the fanboy's passion, but the developers have worked hard to put together a good game. Betatesters are there to help put polish to the product, not spoil it for everyone else!

Are you able to give them creative feedback or is it mainly bug reporting, with multiple choice questionaires, etc. How does it work as far as communication is concerned?

I think its a mild punishment for leaking pictures and films. What would your boss do if he found out you've been Leaking company secrets on the web? I've been a BT since PS2 went online, and its been a blast testing new games before its release. :-) @ Jason :

What I meant by watermark is an identifiable watermark (i.e. your name) that is across the whole screen, similar to what you would find on every page of an actors copy of a screenplay. The point is that you'll know who was responsible for the leak and in breach of their NDA. In my experience, punishment can only be applied in proportion to the damage that is caused. I didn't see IP there that hasn't already been released to the world by Sony. I don't really think this leak is equivalent to stealing the source code and selling it to a competitor. But this is only my opinion. I would think that the closed beta probably has more to do with getting productive feedback for the developers. But, Derrick you would know more about this. Do you find SCE receptive to your feedback? Yeah, I have to sign NDA’s all the time in my industry.
