if its 1week b4 release i might be pissed coz i wana test if my graphics card will work or not , if not then look arnd for a new one coz i pre-ordered BF3

I thought it was going to be around the 27th, but I may be wrong

There's a rumor that all 3 betas are held back because Microsoft is disallowing the beta on the 360, so it doesn't overshadow the Gears 3 release..

So probably september 25th or 30th for all platforms

@AhmadMetallic: Sounds like a stupid made-up rumor by people who don't like Gears 3, to be honest. But what do I know, rumors are just that: rumors. :)
