Just over a month away, not too bad.
It's a shame it's running for a shorter amount of time, then I had originally anticipated. It's like less then a month.
Oh well, at least I won't have to stay up late to play it on the 16th, I'll have to wake up early instead.

just wondering about the beta, i know you have to have xbox live to get it. but does anybody know if you're gonna be able to play it on split screen? like say if my friends come over and we hook up four controllers, are we gonna be able to play each other and not have to play on live? sorry if this question is retarded, but i really want to know.

It was said somewhere that it's Matchmaking only, so I doubt it.
Remember, the aim of this beta is to test the network stuff... not really so you can just enjoy the game early.

Last I heard was that it's going to be solely a matchmaking test...this most likely means either:
A) No custom games.
B) No guests (big maybe, although it's still possible).

Yeah, but what about the Network are they looking for? Bugs? Tech Problems?
And they answer a lot of Questions on

They haven't said. It doesn't really matter, to be honest.
