Crackdown Disc Needed For Halo3 Beta

TBH im more looking forward to launching Crackdown from the Crackdown disc.

The Betas a nice extra but its not the reason me buying the game.

Lovely, so all the people with hacked systems will get this, but everyone with normal systems who havent got crackdown wont :(

I cant believe the system is so lax as to allow that, but if you want to play the BETA there is no reason why you can't rent or buy crackdown.
 
I think this is a wise move. It will hopefully increase sales of Crackdown and get people playing what would otherwise of probably been a "great game no-one played".

If you just needed the game for a few minutes, it would mean sales would be high, but everybody takes it back or trades it in etc which would devalue the actual game.

Personally, I'm in two minds if I am going to play the demo. I mean, I don't want to spoil my fun of H3 when it comes out.
 
I have a feeling that MS will do something about the hacked systems on release of Halo 3, They can't be to happy about people able to hack online with GoW I know i'm not :mad:

Why would they do something about it on release of Halo?

If they could do something, they'd have done it by now.

What do you mean by hack online?

If you do a search for "Gears of War hacked" you will see what i mean, there's even a tutorial on how to make a hacked disk on one of my favorite console sites :(

As far as i know those using the hack are quite easily caught and banned.

At the moment i believe MS are turning a blind eye to the DVD firmware hack because at least there getting revenue from the purchase of Live and the fact even pirates buy or get bought original games on the odd occasion. But once people start messing with Live and ruinning it for others it becomes a different story.

The Halo series is MS flagship game so it will be a huge target for hackers and MS may want to nip it in the butt before it even starts.

I have preordered Crackdown on its own merits (have not played the demo, don't want to be spoiled, but I trust all those who praise it), and the beta is a bonus.

The demo is too restricted to spoil anything.
