I will walk right into Target and buy it the day of release. I refuse to pre-order anything from EB/Game Stop.Usually my Target puts stuff out the day before it should be released. They don't know any better I guess.I heard only people who preordered it will get it the 7th.
You can play some games on your 360, but not all or probably even most. to NFL 2K5 not being BC!This may be enough to get me to abandon my old XBox for a 360.
Will this render all my old games obsolete, or can I play them on the 360?
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, more than half my games are not listed there. Looks like I'd have to keep the old box if I want to play them. That blows.You can play some games on your 360, but not all or probably even most. to NFL 2K5 not being BC!This may be enough to get me to abandon my old XBox for a 360.

Not true. I've never preordered a thing and have always picked it up the day of release. It ships the 7th, and you might find it on SOME shleves oon the 7th. But most likely it will be on the 8th. ENJOY.I heard only people who preordered it will get it the 7th.
Saw this commercial during football yesterday, it's a great ad! Actually made me think about going out and getting a 360 so I could play the game. (Then my good, cheap sense came back to me.)fake_15 said:I saw a commercial for this last night, looks awesome, Can anyone tell me what song is playing during the commercial? Thanks!Nevermind I figured it out, It's Gary Jules - Mad World, originally by Tears for Fears. Fits perfect for that commercial.
Also thought it was an awesome ad, thought the game looked amazing, and am admittedly tempted to pick one up based on this alone.Saw this commercial during football yesterday, it's a great ad!

Very good ad, and it may force me to snag one also.Also thought it was an awesome ad, thought the game looked amazing, and am admittedly tempted to pick one up based on this alone.Saw this commercial during football yesterday, it's a great ad!

Try a Gamestop or EB Games tomorrow afternoon or evening. They might have it. Also my Toys R' Us always puts there stuff out early.I plan on being at circuit city on wednesday after 5 when they are supposed to have it, gamer tag is stone reaper9
System is obtainable anywhere. Game plus system is roughly 460 before taxes. You could always get the cheaper 360 that is only 300 but it doesn't come with the hard drive or a wireless controller. Premium is the only way to go.I haven't played video games in quite a while, but I used to be a bad-### Counterstrike/TFC player back in my old days. At age 30 I feel my time is better spent out on the town chasing the future Mrs. Otis but, in the meantime, I guess a night or two in per week being a would be good for my health.What's it gonna run me if I want the system and this stupid game?Also, how obtainable is the system?
I prefer mid 30's married loser festthis will be a real festcant wait!
If you have XBOX Live Gold you will be able to play it online. If you only have the silver (a.k.a. free) you won't.Ordered it today, hopefully will be here by Wed.Need to pick up the network adapter.only recently an x-box owner.No charge for basic online play, right (in other words, generic X-box live is used, right?)

I can't believe how LITTLE hype CoD3 has had.BTW - You can get an XBOX LIVE 12 month subscription for around $30 or so online via eBay or specials.In the interim, I bet GoW comes with a trial Live membership, as well.Call of Duty and GOW tomorrow
The thing about COD3 is that people are getting a little burned out on WW2 shooters. Also, it changed developers. But what really is killing the hype for COD3 is the fact that GOW, R6:Vegas, & SCA are coming out with weeks of each other.I can't believe how LITTLE hype CoD3 has had.BTW - You can get an XBOX LIVE 12 month subscription for around $30 or so online via eBay or specials.In the interim, I bet GoW comes with a trial Live membership, as well.Call of Duty and GOW tomorrow
review mentioned "shortish playtime" as being a minor drawback....first review ive read on the game up at Yahoo.

Counterstrike is one of the backwards compatible titles for the 360. I still have my copy.I haven't played video games in quite a while, but I used to be a bad-### Counterstrike/TFC player back in my old days.

I really hate how they advertise all over the place how games will come out on X date when in reality that is the shipping date and the game won't be availible until the next day.The new socom also comes out today (ha), but they won't have it until tomorrow.Just called Gamestop and they said it wouldn't be in until tomorrow. I already paid for mine.
Yeah, this sucks.
