Halo Reach Beta in recent games on Xbox 360

Many believe that Halo: Reach will be the biggest game released on the Xbox 360 in 2010, people have been looking forward to the Spring beta, however it appears as if the private beta may have already been launched.

Two screenshots have recent shown up on ConnectedConsoles, one of which shows “Halo: Reach (Private Beta), Game Demo” in someones recent games list.

The other screenshot shows the main menu of the Halo Reach Multiplayer beta, both screenshots look very legitimate.

I think it is more likely that the beta has started early rather than someone getting hold of a pirate version of the game, however I could be wrong.
