The Gears of War 3 beta goes public Monday, which means if you preorder at Gamestop you'll get in - but otherwise, you're still not playing.
So here's your chance to get in an extra weekend of play and the option to buy the game wherever you want (if you want).
We have two Gears of War 3 Beta codes and six Thrashball plushies to give away. We'll assume you'd want both (or either) unless you say otherwise in your comment. The first two winners drawn will get codes for each, and then four more will get just Plushie codes. You DO need Xbox Live Gold to play in the beta.
Want to double your chances to win? After you enter your comment here (with your Twitter name so we can match up your entry), tweet this:
