Pre-order Gears of War 3, get beta access

Recommended Videos

No Bulletstorm? First of all, you’re missing out — not only on a tremendously fun game, but on the Gears of War 3 beta access, too. As expected, a certain retailer has stepped up to offer beta keys in exchange for reservations.

It’s GameStop. Of course it’s GameStop. They even have a huge landing page to prove it. Or elsewhere, if you aren’t living in North America. Anyone who pre-orders the dick off Gears of War 3 will be able to play the beta starting on April 25. That’s a week after Bulletstorm owners, and you’re also missing out on the Flaming Hammerburst weapon. (Drat!)

Having gotten People Can Fly’s shooter on PC, it’s at least nice that I have some alternative way to play Gears 3 before launch day. Too bad that way happens to be this way.
