If you don't want to wait until June 5 for the demo to come out to the public and you still haven't gotten your pre-order demo key (assuming you ordered from GameStop) do the following

HAVE YOUR PREORDER RECEIPT READY JUST IN CASE
1) Call 1-800-883-8895
2) Press '4' (GameStop Store issue or something like that) if you pre-ordered in store, press 2 if you pre-ordered online (thanks Posedion for pointing that out)
3) Wait for an operator to pick up (could take a loooong while)
4) Courteously tell him that you pre-ordered BF:BC and you still haven't gotten your key
5) Tell him the system you want it for, and give him your e-mail address
6) He should send you the code by e-mail
7) Thank him profusely; he's probably getting swamped with assholes who are saying "I WANT MAI DEMO KEY PL0X FAGGOT"

I did that yesterday and got it after a minute or so of talking to a representative.

What about Find All Five, I am in with the chance of getting 4 seeing as the pre-order one is a load of rubbish (

Yeah it is pretty sweet. I suck at it, but I also sucked at BF2 when I started

@Docta watcha mean? The BFBC demo key issue has happened to a lot of people. GameStop HQ sends a daily e-mail with all sorts of news regarding pre-orders and other crap, and the employees can't always remember all of it.

Yeah, they said if you order from play.com you'd get one, but I didnt, so I switched and ordered the gold edition from amazon for the same price, it comes with 5 unlocks
