Xbox 360 System Update Preview, get free Halo: Reach

Major Nelson just let out some details about the upcoming Xbox 360 System Update Preview and its registration.  It’s not unlike previous updates when you had to sign up and take part it so you should be familiar with it.  But it is different in that it’s helping to usher in a new Xbox 360 disc format.  What is this about?

It’s only available for United States residents though.  And the reason is that this update will require a disc to be sent out to those of you who are selected.

You can sign up and get started on registration here.  You’ll also get a copy of Halo: Reach for participating.  (only if you’re selected of course)

Want your friends to read too?
