Amazon release date delivery seems to be a failure so far.

and 9/10 from Edge and it's not even made in the UK! nah, they're were pretty crazy about Halo 3 too.

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #125 on:** September 21, 2009, 08:41:23 PM »

I will co-op the crap out of this with MrSingh as soon as it drops to $29

Singh + Sho Nuff + Halo co-op = Ultimate 3way

about that

anyone up for doing firefight stuff when it's out. I'll finish the campaign solo first, but after that, I'll be up for a number of games. XBL name is Linkzg64.

i'm down for some firefight (GT: xeroxinlola). still pissed that it doesn't have matchmaking.

and yeah, this game shouldve been $40 at most. at least several reviews are touching on that

I called my local Gamestop in Issaquah and was like "CAN I GET IN ON THE MIDNIGHT LAUNCH ACTION" and they were like "YOU SURE CAN!" and I was like "THEN HOLD BACK ONE COPY OF PINBALL HALL OF FAME: THE WILLIAMS COLLECTION FOR XBOX 360!" and they were like "Oh that comes out tomorrow but we didn't get any copies" then I was like RAAAAAAAAAAGE and was ready to smash my phone but it's an iPhone and they are expensive so I went to play Tomb Raider Underworld instead.

is firefight on the ODST dvd? I heard the Halo 3 one couldn't be installed, but I don't think I'll be getting back into that multiplayer. Care mostly about trying firefight.

and fuck, Amazon shipped this thing in the middle of the night. Watch it arrive at midnight :'( (my day is packed all day tomorrow)

I picked up a copy last night at the midnight (after two of my GameStop co-workers lent me 20 bucks each because they wanted to play Firefight with me that bad). I played a 45 minute firefight and played a little bit of the single player campaign. I really enjoyed it a lot. I can't wait to play some more, which I would be doing tonight if I wasn't stuck here at work,
