Gears of War 3 beta keys run out at GAME
UK games retailer GAME has run out of Gears of War 3 beta keys. Customers who pre-ordered with GAME have received an email stating that Microsoft have not been able to supply keys to cover all of the pre-orders. They are, however, expecting to release more keys next week, so everyone who pre-ordered with GAME will have a chance for some Gears action before it's official release.
“We are currently awaiting the next shipment of codes which is due to arrive early next week. As soon as they arrive we will dispatch them to you. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.”
A spokesperson for GAME informed Eurogamer that they are expecting the new batch of keys on Tuesday 26th April, the day after the public beta starts.
"As soon as we get them, they'll be sent on either physically or digitally to customers who are still waiting. All we can do is obviously apologise that they're going to have to wait over the Easter weekend."
The public multiplayer beta is running until Sunday 15th May, with the game itself hitting European and US shelves on September 20th.
