Xbox Gaming in South Africa

Epic Games' Rod Fergusson has confirmed over Twitter that buying the Bulletstorm Epic Edition won't be the only way to get into the Gears of War 3 beta, however, it is "the best way in with [a] headstart and exclusive content".

He also said that the Bulletstorm disc will be required for beta access (in this case), as the included code adds a button to the Bulletstorm menu. So don't go flogging it too soon.

No date has been set yet for the Gears of War 3 multiplayer beta, only that it will be activated "at a later date".

Bulletstorm will be out this Friday, 25 February in South Africa.
