I was wondering if when ODST comes out will the beta for Reach also come out on the same day. Or will it be like Crackdown where the beta came out months after the game. Thanks in advance for any help I don't know if its been asked before

No it won't be on the same day. 2010 I believe it was.

The beta for Reach won't be coming on the same day. Your purchase of ODST guarantees that, when the Reach beta comes out, you will be invited to the party.

I would say it'd probably be a few months, but who knows, it's bungie...The most unpredictible company ever.

The beta releases in March. I had E3 recorded, and when they were interviewing an employee from Bungie, they asked him when the beta was going to be. He stuttered a little bit, and said, "Marc---That's up for debate right now." I watched it a few times just to make sure, but he definitely said March before very quickly saying the last part. If anyone has this year's E3 recorded still they can watch it. Of course, they can always change the dates around if they would like.

Interesting.
Bungie stated he was trying to say "It will be in Marketplace."
But quickly corrected himself, because the Beta is in ODST itself, not the Marketplace.

Yes, interesting indeed. I guess we'll just have to wait to find out if we're right.

True, I just hope that it doesn't take months to play it like the Halo 3 beta.
