It's not like it's a broken promise. (Destiny)

Oh, absolutely. I never expected 8 months, but given the nature of the product I expected at least a month, maybe more. The usual meaning of beta is a product still actively in development, where you make changes based on customer feedback. The term here clearly just means: pre-release demo. But if they'd advertised pre-orders with “Free: 10 day pre-release demo access!” I'm sure the reaction would have been far less enthusiastic.
