I really want to get into the Beta...

But i really dont want to buy ODST after i beat it at my friends...

Since the beta's gonna be inbedded on all ODST disks, you just need to borrow the disk from your friend. If he lets you borrow it that is

Or pick one up used a month or so before the beta. Don't wait until the beta launches, because then the price on all used copies will skyrocket.

Or rent it.

but its gonna be so awesome he's gonna want to play it until Reach releases!

Preferrably gamefly or else you will only get the beta for 5-7 days per rental...

Bungie basically said in their Weekly Update that we'll be getting all the beta info in January. Sound slike they are going to start releasing Reach info pretty steadily and heavily then.

From Bungie:

"I know you want hard and fast dates for the beta, but for now, you’ll need to dig in and give the footage a proper frame-by-frame scrubbin’ and utilize your considerable powers of speculation. Until the aforementioned mid-January media blitz hits, of course."

Can't we all just get along and play our games in peace?
