Super SFII Turbo HD Remix Beta packed with the release of Commando 3 for XBLA

     Xbox 360

No doubt many of you are salivating in anticipation for the release of Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. Well lucky for you, Capcom knows just how bad people want this game. They're going to be offering a Beta test of HD Remix that will be packed along the release of Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 for Xbox 360 owners.

The Beta test will last for eight weeks and only Ryu and Ken will only be playable in the Beta. Only one stage will be available and some of the new modes such as Quarter Match Mode (spectator mode) will be activated.

The main purpose of this beta is for Capcom to stress test the online aspect of the Turbo HD Remix. They want to make sure that everything goes smoothly once the game comes out. This will also be the first time an XBLA game is publicly Beta tested through Xbox and second time total for any type of an Xbox game for a public Beta test (Halo 3 through Crackdown last year). 

So who here is now planning on getting Commando 3 just for the Beta of Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix

I'll be picking it up. Mostly for the Beta but I hope I like Commando 3 too.

Oh snap! This might just be a purchase for me, just for the beta, then I'll turn around and sell Commando, unless I like it, although I've never played any of them so....

Commando 3 will now be known as the SF2 Beta.

I’m with SantanaClaus89. Why the Sony hate, Capcom?

What the hell is Commander 3? I just ran a Google search and found nothing on it. Literally. Nothing. It was all Wing Commander stuff and Command and Conquer.

I...If the game is good I'll buy it and think of SFIITHR as a bonus like with Crackdown (such a good game).

This title is clearly lacking in the "minimum aditional words" category. It should be more like Super Street Fighter II Turbo Speed Ultra High-Definition Superior Remix Edition Beta.

Don't any of you whipper-snappers remember Commando on the Commodore 64?

I was already planning on buying Commando 3.

There used to be an original Commando Arcade Game at a Grocery Store and I used to play it a couple years ago.

The Beta is a nice bonus.
