Just fill in the <a href="http://www.haemimontgames.com/tropico3/betatest.php" title="El Presidente needs testers too">sign-up form</a> and hope you're in.</p><p>A beta test "on PC" I said because the controlled media has revealed that <strong>Tropico 3 will also be an Xbox360 game</strong>. The multiplatform rage is finally hitting simulation games as well?   </p><blockquote>In what was previously a PC exclusive title this release will see Kalypso Media enter the next- generation console market where they will be concentrating exclusively on Microsoft platforms. 
</blockquote><blockquote><p>Stefan Marcinek, Global Managing Director Kalypso Media Group said &ldquo;The Tropico 3 release on the Xbox 360 is a first for Kalypso and marks the beginning of an exciting entry into the console market. Throughout 2010 Kalypso Media have plans to release four titles in tandem on both the Xbox 360 and PC. Through this we will be able to demonstrate our strong PC Line up with new multiplatform games and this gives us some great opportunities for the year ahead.&rdquo; 
</p></blockquote><p>The console version of Tropico 3 will be released simultaneously with the PC game (around September this year) and is being developed by the same developer, namely Haemimont Games. </p><p>Spotted @ <a href="http://ve3d.ign.com/">Voodoo Extreme</a></p>
