    I was hoping to play the beta on my 360 as well, anyone know how to do this other than preordering it from gamestop? it mentions an xbox live token to download it on there but all it gave me was the key for the PC one

    Yup, same thing I had to do. But I had to register twice, with 2 different emails, because when I clicked on the link in my first email, the page kept freezing up, when I finally logged in at Callofduty.com, it said my account was already registered, and I couldn't find my key.

    So I signed up with another email, got the link, clicked on it, and boom.....there was my activation key.

    Bah, took me 3 different emails to finally get the key. First and second attempts, I registered by clicking on the register link on the top right. For the third try I signed up through http://www.callofduty/beta and finally got my key after clicking on the verification link.

    mine works on vista 64 (well, windows server 2008 x64)...

    installed into the 32 bit application folder and runs as expected without having to do anything weird.

    nvidia driver is 178.24 from laptopvideo2go.com
