I'll be glad when it's out so I don't have to hear any more hype. Can't go into a game or electronics store without seeing all the ads or getting asked at the register if you'd like to pre-order.....the guy at Best Buy yesterday insisted I'd buy it....even though I've never played any of the Halo's and am really NOT interested in this version either....they had to put off the launch of PGR4 for 2 weeks to give it some room in the stores....it was supposed to be out on the 25th too.Oh, and I won't miss the countdown on my Xbox everyday either. *rolls eyes*

I never got on the Halo wagon, guess I never owned Xbox when the original came out. I played it once or twice, it was ok, driving that car was frigin hard though.GTA4, I barely played GTA San Andreas, too much going on in that game. I still love Vice City, that's about my speed.

sweet, if they are selling early then that means I can get on Live when I get home. I have had mine since Friday and am about halfway through it on Legendary(I recommend if you are doing this solo, go Heroic cause it took my nearly two hourse to get past one part on Legendary) Damn game kept dropping off brutes and I kept dying. Finally decided to try something and went back for a vehicle and came back and desimated them)

I went to a bar last night to watch Monday Night Football with my buddy. Next door is a place called Game Stop. There were kids lined up down the plaza. Two kids even had a tent in front, with a table and a TV setup with a game system and they were sitting on a bench playing video games since like 8pm till like 11:30 when I left. I'm sorry guys, but this def. puts people in the category of dork. The news already said stores have overstocked to make sure people can get it. Sorry guys, I gotta call these people LAME.

Well I beat the game last night on Heroic. The ending was freaking awesome. Well worth the wait. For those that have played campaign, who has found the Red vs Blue skit in the game? Hehehehe I found it while exploring.

They would call you a idiot for going to a BAR to watch NeanderBall... They were running the opening LIVE on Spike last night, they kept showing this guy who build all of his own Halo armor and weapons, he planed on wearing it for the whole evening... No of it is different than Trekkie's or Ringers or or or orEdit: I just did a spell check and "trekkie's" was a KNOWN word for the SC... lol

I knew I could strike a cord with a few people. lol.To each his own, just found it funny cause we were at the bar and they were in line for the game. I would have paid some kid to wait there for me, gone to the bar, gotten drunk and then came out at 12:03 and driven home with my game.

i dont care.. just this morning, some steroid takin guy was behind us and some white geeky guy comes up and passes us to meet his buddy. the guy was like hey we were all here first... and the nerdy guys all im not here for halo and im here like every morning... i thought... Hmmm WoW guy or Harry Potter... and its funny to see nerdy TYPE people think they are bigger and better. haha. i knew we had like 5 bagillion copies so i wasnt worried. I think to each there own as well and again its funny to see others so involved... : )

games to me now are only worth it if you can play online with others.... i dont play bioshock and i bought it... its not online so nothing exciting after you beat it which i havent. so its like a paper weight right now.im tryin to stick to only games i like that are online aswell. makes it worth it in the end compared to like single player non online games.

well as for my last post regarding the gamertags..everything is good now..microsoft was probably just updating alot of stuff....so far im on mission 6 on legendary..hopefully beat the game by tomorrow night

im on mission 9 on legendary(last mission)..so far it's been very frustrating with how many times i've died! lol..and as for the skulls..i have found 1..i found others but wasnt sure what to do...when you find a lone skull...hold the R2 button and MC will pick it up and you'll get the achievementedit** anyone beat the last mission? im on the top of the stupid tower and im just getting swarmed with no chance in hell to kill them all..where the hell do i go?edit**..ok finally figured it out and just beat the game on legendary..man is it insane..and my achievements just jumped by about 500 points..gonna re-do it in normal and get all the skulls then head online

You don't suck. I beat the game on heroic, then went back and played the final level on legendary. I just wanted to see the special ending before I found out about it from someone else. Now I can take my time and go back and play the campaign on legendary.*edit* Wave, did you stick it out through the credits and see the rest of the ending? Its well worth it for anyone who is tempted to skip the credits. (Especially the legendary ending.)
