Talk about a great way to sell a crap load of copies of your game. According to this ad in Gamepro, if you buy Crackdown for the Xbox 360, then you'll get an invite to the Halo 3 beta. Sneaky business practice or nothing but a handful of awesome?
Either way, if this IS true, Crackdown will get a substantial sales boost.

Either way, its gonna sell an assload of copies just because you could possibly play the Halo 3 beta
They're not selling their game, they're selling the halo3 beta.
You know what that means, the games sucks and they know it.
But its Halo3, you get to play halo3.
Burnout3 had the NfsU2 demo and BO3 was the better game, then again I can't be bothered with Halo can't care less or they add the demo or not.
You mean you got Z.O.E. for the MGS2 demo...but yeah, that's exactly what I thought of too. I liked Z.O.E...for all of the 5 hours it lasted, anyway. Love me some Z.O.E. 2, tho...we need a third, with a MGS5 demo...
Yeah, you get to play Halo 3. But, I doubt it will be anything too special. Probably just one map or something like that so it will just be like playing a demo.
The cool thing about it before is that it would be an honor to get to beta test it because so few people would get that chance, but now you wont feel special.
Where the Game that was bought for the demo was actually better than the finished game of the demo.
Couple of things though, replace demo with beta. and MGS 2 with a Bland FPS called Halo.
