Crackdown (Xbox 360) region free????

[greektony]

Does anyone know if this game will be region free? I cant seem to find anything definitive on google about this. I am only asking as I have seen it for sale on playasia for £23 which is a little cheaper than the £40 everyone over here will be asking

Cheers boys

Like most of the other games, we won't know until it's out.

Highly unlikely though, Microsoft are publishing and those have almost always been region locked.

I thought it was down to the developer, not publisher ?

its generally the terms the publisher demands

I thought GoW was region free???

Gears of war is published by MS and is definitely region free so it is quite likely that crackdown will be too. Does anyone know how long they are including the Halo beta for? Is it only for the first batch? If I order one a week later from play asia if it confirmed that it is region free, will it be included is basically the question that needs answering.

I think it's all the copies in the first batch have a key, and there are loads of copies. Bungie have a huge beta testing team this time around

I'm not sure if the batches after the first will have it though, so long as playasia have their stock of the first batch still in stock then you should get one, so it's not really guaranteed.
