For the rest of you, here is some exciting news: Gamers who buy Crackdown™ are guaranteed a place in this spring’s Halo 3™ multiplayer beta program! Truly a unique value-packed, action-filled two-fer if there ever was one!
Crackdown is scheduled to hit store shelves across the planet on Feb. 20, 2007. Gamers who take home a copy of the highly-anticipated Xbox 360™ exclusive action title, will find a pleasant surprise inside the box: access to the coveted Halo 3 multiplayer beta program.
When the Halo 3 multiplayer beta surfaces in spring 2007, owners of Crackdown simply need to load their copy of Crackdown into their Xbox 360 and use the disc as a key to download the Halo 3 multiplayer beta from Xbox Live® Marketplace and join the battle.
There is only one other way to gain admittance to the Halo 3 multiplayer beta program.
Beginning Feb. 1, 2007, Halo® fans with an Xbox 360, an Xbox Live Gold account, and a copy of the mega-popular Halo 2™ will have a chance to be selected in the Halo 3 multiplayer beta program through the Xbox Live “Rule of Three” Program. This special engagement will close on Feb. 4, providing gamers worldwide three days to take advantage of this rare opportunity.
All gamers need to do is participate in three different Halo 2 multiplayer sessions on Xbox Live over the course of the three-day window and, once the three-day window is over, be among the first 13,333 gamers to register at http://www.halo3.com. That’s it. Gamers who buy Crackdown and have an Xbox Live Gold account, of course, are automatically assured access to the Halo 3 multiplayer beta.
The Halo 3 multiplayer public beta, which is a pre-release version of the multiplayer experience of Halo 3, is scheduled for availability in spring 2007 exclusively on Xbox 360. The beta also represents an opportunity for gamers to participate in the testing and refinement of the multiplayer gameplay of Halo 3, the most anticipated game of 2007. Through the resulting feedback, Bungie Studios will be able to further tune and hone the end result of Halo 3.
