Our spies, readers and whatnots have sent word that the Shadowrun public beta for the Xbox 360 version of the game isn't just live, but recently took on board a much larger group of gamers.

Today thousands of gamers received keys to allow them to download an early build of the game on their Xbox 360s. The beta, we're told, will run until at least until the end of April.

While a public, well semi-public, beta of a game is a pretty significant step forward, the game still has months before it hits shelves. I can't wait to see PC and 360 gamers take each other on. Brian Crecente
