When I went to buy it at midnight, I was terrified with the number of game geeks out patrolling the streets. First I went to Gamecrazy, which has a line around the corner...maybe a 3 hour wait. I laughed and thought, what a bunch of clowns.
With my "inferior decision making skills", I proceeded to Walmart, where I needed to pick up DV tapes anyways...to film myself more. Once there, the line took all of 10 minutes.
Game is pretty solid, consider how well the online mode is implemented and this is where it shines above Gears. Gears of War simply can't be compared to anything, that just wouldn't be fair to the other games.
After playing it for a few hours the other day, I experienced a mean coffee/video game hangover, and haven't touched it since.
the halo3 edition of xbox 360 was being sold for $279 at circuit city here in NY
costco has it at a good price also
OMFG!! WTF.... how the hell is is cheaper in new york then it is down here.
The price was dropped nationwide a few months ago. The unit with the 20gb hard drive was dropped to $350 and the Core Unit was dropped to $280.
Gamegeek out...
