The Idea of a free beta weekend pass is that if you play the "closed" weekend Beta and don't like the game it didn't cost you anything.

This last Closed Beta weekend is not a free to everyone weekend and is not easily available.
There are only 30 free one weekend passes left.
This free pass will not work after the Feburary Beta is over.
So far in the past year Guild Wars have given out more than 500,000 free single weekend passes and these are the last 30 left anywhere so I would'nt call it Cheep because these passes come form 30 members of the mmorpg Guild that have donated their free guest pass that comes with the pre-order packages that each of the 30 members bought and not from the Makers of Guild Wars.
The makers of Guild Wars have closed the Beta weekend so that only people that have the pre-order package and their guests may play. I wouldn't call this cheep. I call it Gamers helping Gamers, and there more than 40,000 gamers that have entered the contest to try for one of the 30 passes.
