Mass Effect 3 Beta Releases Early to some Live Users

The Beta became downloadable today to some users that registered for the Early Dashboard Preview Program.

Some Xbox Live Users today, who signed up for the Early Dashboard Preview Program, noticed a nice little surprise today. More Like Accident actually. The Mass Effect 3 Beta, scheduled for Release about a week before the game releases, in Janurary of 2012, showed up on the dashboard today, under the Pre Release Channel.

Users who were able to download it before it was pulled off spotted these game options for the singleplayer campaign section of the beta:

"Action Mode: For those who want to emphasize action and combat and minimize story management. Action mode will set automatic replies in conversation and a normal difficulty.

Story Mode: For those who want to emphasize story immersion and minimize combat pressure. Story mode will set manually-selectable replies in conversation and a minimal combat difficulty.

RPG Mode: For those who want to explore both realms of story and combat. RPG mode will set manually-selectable replies in conversation and a normal combat difficulty."

There was also reports of broken animations, missing textures, and no sound in the beta, proving that it was not meant to be available to the public this early. Screen Shots of the beta are below.
