Want to play in the Xbox 360 multiplayer beta for Call of Duty 4? Then you'll have to pre-order the title from Game, the exclusive retail partner for the game - you couldn't make this stuff up. All we want to know is can we cancel our pre-order if we decide that it's rubbish?

GAME state that "We have a limited number of places reserved for our customers to participate in this Beta programme. All you need to do is pre-order Call of Duty 4 on Xbox 360 and we will email you your Activision Clearance Code and details on how you can participate."

FAQ

* Q. How/When will I get my BETA code?
A. We will be sending an email on a weekly basis which will contain the code and instructions on how to use it.

* Q. If I had already pre-ordered will I still get a code?
A. Yes. Everyone who has pre-ordered will get a code.

* Q. What do I do once I receive my code?
A. The email containing the code will explain what you need to do to gain access to the BETA.

* Q. If I order more than one copy of the game will I get more than one code?
A. Yes. You will receive a Unique code for every copy of the game that you order.

Well this sucks. I'm gonna pre-order and then cancel if it's no good. Even if you cant cancel it you can still take games back to GAME within 7/14 (can't remember) days anyway.
I'm not sure why everyone is so fascinated with beta products these days, I'd rather just play the finished product.

You don't need to cancel it. You don't have to buy pre-orders.

Whats going on with the news guys? Not wanting to tread on toes here but this is almost a week old again! :eek:

edit - actually, they might be operating a different system for this promotion not sure.

It was only announced today, about 10 mins before it appeared on the site.

I thought you have to pay to order your pre-order from GAME or put down a deposit at least. I haven't shopped there for years, games are cheaper elsewhere.
