Last night, Infinity Ward fired up its Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Beta lottery machine for the first time, giving out a few entry tokens to fans and making dreams come true. But this first wave of entry into the beta isn't over just yet and you can still get into the lottery via email. Head over to the official Infinity Ward forums and read community manager fourzerotwo's instructions to learn exactly how to enter the beta lottery.

In general, you have to fill out the information and trivia questions on the form supplied and shoot it via email over to firstwavelotto[splat]beta.infinityward.com (no subject necessary). If filled out correctly you'll be entered into the wave one beta entry lottery which just might get you into the fun. But you'll have to hurry, because they are only accepting email entries for 24 hours which expires sometime this evening. Also, Infinity Ward wants everyone to know that this lottery is the first of many ways to get into the beta, so don't feel left out if you aren't selected because there will be many more chances. Good luck, send out your emails and stay safe soldier.
