Halo 3 Public Beta
Remember the news last week about the public beta of Halo 3? Every Xbox Live subscriber needed a new set of undies afterwards just thinking of the chance to play some Halo 3 multiplayer. Well what would you think if you didn’t get to play? What if you had to be selected?
I came across this line from VNUNet concerning the Halo 3 beta and Bungie while browsing the internet:
The company said that selected beta testers would be playing a multiplayer game and providing Bungie with valuable data to help the development team.
The ‘company’ ofcourse is referring to Bungie. I know the beta details are limited but what would life be without its speculations and rumors right? If untrue, I wonder how quickly the story will be revised. I suppose in a beta environment you’d want it as controlled as possible for testing so the idea of selecting people is understandable at least in my eyes. No matter…just as long as I’m one of the selected few!
What say you fans of Halo 3 about the possibility of not being selected to beta the multiplayer?

[...] Today marks the day that gamers in North America can register for a chance to participate in the Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta being released exclusively for the Xbox 360 this coming spring 2007. Did you say chance? Well don’t you remember me eluding to the fact that you’d have to be selected in order to play? You have to pay more attention the next time. Bungie has already stated there would be several chances for those stateside and abroad to enjoy the beta, but I suggest you plan ahead now to not be so disappointed if you don’t get the chance to play.
