So Microsoft is going to be releasing a beta for the FPS game Shadowrun between mid December and March. I’m not sure about all the details but I do know that you will be able to play it either with your 360 or on a Windows Vesta computer. And based off of what I’ve seen with other 360 betas I’m guessing the spots open are either limited, or the sign up window is small. So join now.
1. Go to
http://connect.microsoft.com.
2. On the left side of the screen is a link titled “Invitations”. Click it
3. Sign in with your windows Live ID.
4. Follow the instructions to register.
5. Enter your Invitation ID in the blank field. (SHBS-6YMT-YKHC)
6. Fill out the short questionnaire. Your beta code (the first question is 106)
7. After your finished click the “My Participations” link on the left hand navigation bar then click the Shadowrun program link. This will redirect you to the Shadowrun Beta Selection Homepage.
8. Read the info about the beta for a bit and when your finished click the link “Join the forums”.
9. Sign up on the forums and I think it helps your chances to post something on the forums.
10. Keep on checking back to the connect.Microsoft.com page for updates on what’s going on, also make sure you frequent your email inbox.
This is the official message you will get when you finish signing up.
