All ODST games come with a beta to Reach. At an undetermined time, Bungie will announce the date of the Beta and you will then use your ODST disk 1 to access the Beta and have fun until the soda runs dry.

Every single copy of ODST, that is new, wether pre-ordered or bought on the day of release or after, is issued a Halo; Reach BETA acess through ODST's Main Menu via the "Extra/Bonus" option.

But, you will not be able to play the BETA until Bungie allows us.
Many speculate that means 2010.

well I knew about every copy of ODST having an invite for the beta... and even though I really think you're right, did they actually give the details on how to access the beta (via the extra menu, etc?)

Yes, they did.
I'm fairly sure they did it in an interview.

  • 08.04.2009 9:50 AM PDT

Yes. In about 50 billion videos.

Now you're a big idiot..


funny how :
1 the "intelligent" guy didn't notice the sarcasm
2 someone else said it was in ONE interview
3 you can't even ginve ONE link out of the 50 billion.

dumbass.

  • 08.04.2009 10:18 AM PDT

I think it's just like Crackdown, just buy the game check to see if you got an invitation card in the case and look for something thats like downloads or extras and bonus or Halo Reach beta....If you bought Crackdown w/ Halo 3 Beta then you might know. And Halo Reach beta will be for a limited time

  • 08.06.2009 5:37 PM PDT

People Die..But Spartans Live Forever!

Delta Squad X

ZOMG!!!..i mean seriously does no one watch the videos bungie releases?..clearly in the E3 videos they clearly say this.." Hold on to your ODST discs because your gonna need them to access the Halo Reach beta when it releases." That little sentence right there tells me alot...it tells me that i need to have the odst disc to play the reach beta and that all odst game discs will function the same....

  • 08.06.2009 5:48 PM PDT

Tennōheika banzai!

In one of the Bungie updates just after E3, they posted a video containing the full opening scene and some gameplay (from the conference, using a handheld camera). They tell you about it in that and I think they actually show you the extras menu.
