Halo 3 beta signup hits 140000 registrations in 24 hours

Posted by multippt

Microsoft revealed that 140000 (140 thousand) people signed up for the Halo 3 public beta (which will be available next year, September) within the first day (24 hours). The traffic was so immense that the halo3 website was unable to sevice all the requests. At times, the sign-up page will be unavailable.

Nevertheless, the registration for the beta is still open. However, note that to register for the beta, you need a Xbox 360 (duh…), with a hard drive, a Xbox Live (Gold) account, together with a .net passport (just use your hotmail account), be above 17 years old, and live in North America (or Canada).
