GAME runs out of Gears 3 beta codes
A number of customers have received an email from GAME explaining that Microsoft had been unable to send them enough keys to distribute.
"We are currently awaiting the next shipment of codes which is due to arrive early next week. As soon as they arrive we will dispatch them to you. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused," it read.
A spokesperson for GAME told Eurogamer that it's expecting to receive them on Tuesday – one day after the public beta is due to start.
"As soon as we get them, they'll be sent on either physically or digitally to customers who are still waiting," he explained. "All we can do is obviously apologise that they're going to have to wait over the Easter weekend."
We've asked Microsoft for an explanation and will update if it chooses to comment.
The Gears 3 public multiplayer beta is due to run until 15th May. For a better idea of what lies in wait, have a read of Eurogamer's recent hands-on impressions.

I hope I'm one of those lucky few to test it out. I've never played any GOW games so this will be my first.

ISTEALFROMWAL-MART dude wtf!!!!! i just bought bulletstorm for the gears 3 beta only reason why i bought ithow so? You get a spot in the beta no matter what. All this means is that you would have more people to kill and an easier time finding a match.... You should be happy that they would be letting in a few extra people
this sucks what a waste :(
