Well Gears of War may not have shown up at the vga’s last weekend, but that does not mean that Epic games is going into hiding over the holidays. As it turns out, upon the release of Bulletstorm in February as long as you buy the 360 exclusive Epic Edition of the game you will gain access to the Gears of War 3 Beta. The Epic edition of Bulletstorm will cost $59.99 and will only be available for those playing on the Xbox 360.
Along with access to the beta, their will be a few in game features that will automatically be unlocked for those with the epic edition. In game you will receive 25,000 exp points, alternate leash models, along with armor and boots. You will need some sweet boots for all of the slide kicking we will be doing. This whole deal seems like a great incentive to pick up a great Epic endorsed game, that otherwise might not have got the love it deserves. There is still no word as to when the beta will go live, but just know that if you have Bulletstorm Epic edition your good to go.
Drop us a comment and let us know if you were already going to grab Bulletstorm February 22nd, or if this was the pushing factor.
