Get Call of Duty 4 Beta using Second Profile Glitch

Infinity Ward handed out codes for the Call of Duty 4 Beta earlier this week, but this was limited to just US players who signed up for it on CharlieOscarDelta. The registration has now closed and a few thousand gamers got their hands on the elusive codes.

If a friend has the Call of Duty 4 Beta, then they can do what the eBay sellers are doing, but for free. This will require you to hand over your Gamertag details and password.

1. Plug in 2 Controllers.
2. Sign Controller 1 into the shared account (the one with the Beta)
3. Leave Controller 2 signed out
4. With Controller 1, go to 'Account Management' under the Marketplace Blade then 'Download History'
5. With Controller 2, press the Guide Button then A to access profiles
6. With Controller 1, select YOUR account and sign in
7. Press B on Controller 2 (to exit the guide) then unplug Controller 2
8. Select the COD4 Beta onscreen, then press 'Confirm Download'
9. The Beta will now download with YOUR account and once done, will work with your account

Note: Of course doing this is at your own risk, MS might not like it.
Update: It looks like Microsoft is banning people who used this trick from the COD4 beta now.

And people wonder why Microsoft has "draconian" DRM on their downloads.  If there is the slightest hole in the system people will exploit it.

I used this to get my 2nd account into the beta early.   By FAR COD4 Beta is a great game, must say way better then the Halo 3 Beta and Definitely on my list of games to buy this Xmas!!!

Yea, we've been doing this for about a week now. I've set up several friends/family with it, and we are all enjoying the beta!

I believe it works with game content such as map packs etc , and it doesn't work with arcade games.

too bad i dont know anyone with the beta, though I am curious to try this with Oblivion with my friends.  Anyone else confirm this working with other game content?  Also anyone run into any trouble with M$ for doing so lol?

Beware after i did this it said that my log in was invalid, not sure if i did something wrong but, beware i will let you know what happens

never mind, just be sure you start it from the game blade and start it from demos and more

It works laying it right now
