gamefly shipped it today ill probably buy it after i send it back if im still in love just too many games coming out these next few months

I'm not a Halo fan but this is what got me to buy Halo 3...big mistake. Not because it's a bad game but it's not my type of game. I never played Halo on Xbox (never owned OG Xbox) and still haven't finished Halo on my 360. I might pick this game up when it hits $30.

thats the bottom line for me. Halo is not my kind of game. As much as i would like to enjoy it with my friends, i know it will be a waste of money no matter how much friends build it up as something worth playing

I debated going and getting it at midnight....but I can wait an extra 10 hours to play, no big deal. I'll be on pretty much all day tomorrow though

This kind of game with Kinect might work for oldsters like me.
I just can't stand aiming with the R3 stick on the 360 or ps3.
The second I can do that with Kinect or Move, it might be more fun.

Just picked up a copy early. Not going to play it until after the MNF games though.

GT: Prim3time232 if anyone wants to play.

Lucky. May pick it up this weekend. :lilbored:

Reading some fanboys comments are just plain hilarious. Apparently Games Radar gave the campaign a 7/10 and one dude lost his shit. What a douche. The game isn't even out yet asshole.

I'd love to post the link to the twitpic from Chris Antista's account but I keep getting an error message.

I think the thing that most surprises me is that OXM gave it a 9.5 I thought they would give it a 10 for sure because they are such homers with 360 exclusives. I think they gave Crackdown 2 an 8.5 so that should give you some idea.

[Maynard]

ign gave a 9.5 too.

[Twigg4075]

ign gave a 9.5 too.

A few outlets gave it a 10 also. My point is that it's all but a guarantee that OXM sucks off all 360 exclusives and I think they have given EVERY Halo game a 10. The fact that this got a 9.5 is a bit of a shocker.

Any word on about how long the campaign is? I haven't really been following.

I won't be able to play this till next week it looks like. Im getting the game as a gift and I might not have it in my hands till after my surgery on Thursday. Im going to be in the hospital till Sunday, so I don't know how long it will be till I start to feel better.

Dang. What are you getting surgery for? Something minor I hope?

Upper and lower jaw surgery. I have an under/open bite.

IGN said about 8 hours. Everyone knows what these games are really about though.
