Shipping this week: no more jokes edition

Ever since it was first announced that Crackdown would contain a golden ticket to the Halo 3 beta, the jokes have been flying. We admit it, we're as guilty as anyone else, even "designing" our own box art for the game. At this point, most of us have made up our minds about the game. The demo has sealed the deal for many who now eagerly await the retail release. Good news then, 360 Fanboy readers, that time is upon us. As such, we are now retiring the "Halo 3 beta with free copy of Crackdown" meme. Crackdown is a good game that deserves its own space. Sure, we know that many are mainly anticipating the beta, but they just happen to be getting it with a fun game. Without further ado, behold the 360 titles shipping this week:

North America

• Crackdown

• NBA Street Homecourt

Europe

• Blitz: The League

• Crackdown

If your copy of Crackdown does have that golden ticket, don't forget to sign up for our Halo 3 beta leaderboard so the 360 Fanboy community can play together when the beta launches. In the meantime, we'll see you on Crackdown.
