Tonight Microsoft's Major Nelson announced that they're doing an Xbox 360 System Update Preview program for the next release, and the opportunity to sign up is now available. The company is conducting an open call for US based participants for a public preview to help prepare for an updated Xbox 360 disc format. As part of the preview program, you will receive a copy of Halo: Reach along with other possible rewards. Much like they did last year, you’ll need to visit the Microsoft Connect site from the link below and sign in with your Windows LIVE ID that is connected to your Xbox LIVE Gamertag. Once you complete the survey that is presented to you, the Connect site will provide program related updates and you will receive a mail once the selection process is completed. Sign up quickly as they are probably being flooded with entrants right now; hit the link below and let us know if you score a free copy of Halo: Reach.
A couple of points before you head off to register:
- We’re looking for multiple thousands of participants, so your chances of making it in are good.
- This opportunity is open to Xbox LIVE Members in US region only*.
- To avoid any problems, read the survey carefully and double check all the information you provide.
- While both Xbox LIVE Gold and Silver members can sign up, priority will be given to Gold members in the selection process.
