And I know it won't cut it at all for GoW. 
Would be worst to have it fail just before GoW comes out (knock on wood)Originally posted by: chrisg22
Ah, ok. Well that's fine then because I didn't like the idea of that releasing on the same day as GoW anyways. I'm willing to bet that they didn't want to try to compete.
Thanks for clearing that up, it's confusing when 5 different sites have different dates.
That sucks, but at least your 360 is working

Are you more excited about GoW or R6? I've been watching the vids of GoW and it just doesn't excite me for some reason, like the ones for R6 and SC3 did. BTW, sorry wasn't trying to bust your chops on the dates. I'd like to know just as much as you do.
As long as they did the online multiplayer right and it won't need a patch to make it work properly, but knowing Ubisoft I'm sure it will work just fine. They can't mess with the dates for R6 like that it messes with my head.

I've already played the demo like 5 times, it just plays so smooth.
I don't really like ghost recon at all, i just can't get into that game.

Awesome. Is it just me or were you not impressed with the first R6's on XBox Live? Like seriously, it was so difficult to kill people when playing online. I'd remember meeting an enemy point blank and we'd upload 3 clips into each other, point blank, and because the aiming system/reticule was so ridiculously small and just crappy, neither of us died. The only way to kill anyone in that game was via:
A) Grenades/Grenade launcher
B) Zoomed in from far away
It was just pointless having a non-zoomed in firefight. I still played it but lost all interest after Halo 2, which is still the top game I play on Live.
The wireless headsets are available right now, and they retail for $59.99. Mucho expensive if you ask me.

I LOVED playing those games on Xbox Live, even though they needed a few improvements here and there. The Team Survival ended up being nothing but seeing who can camp the longest. And like you said, in close combat while moving it was almost impossible to take someone out with an entire clip. Realistically an entire clip should kill someone, but in those games you had to walk very slowly, or stand still to be somewhat accurate.
And most of the time they turned off all grenade launchers, but grenades ended up being most of the kills because people would just choose all grenades and have 9 of them, and lob them into all the windows at the start of the maps.
Most people would just find a hallway and lean around the corner and kill people that way. Do you remember the airport map? Inside the hanger on the top floor at the end of the hallway was where almost every map ended it seemed like.
In the end I was mostly playing Coop in Elite difficulty on terrorist hunt/missions.
Hopefully they have made the aiming system a little better as far as close combat. I know that this game won't let me down if it's anything like the previous games.
Never could get into Halo 2, still have it though.
Edit: Wow, didn't mean to write such a long post. Took 3 hours to get home and posting is helping to relieve stress

Yes! I liked and hated that map, it was just hit or miss for me sometimes. Seems like the good players could rape everyone else on the other team unless the other team got him like 3v1. I did like the garage map though....once it was down to 5 vs me, ended up winning. Got lucky, but won.
What's your Live gamertag? We should hook up sometime and play a few games.

I'm not sure how much the warranty at best buy is, but you can buy a warranty for Microsoft.
1 year is $30, and 2 years is $60. If you do buy one of MS's warranties, they start after the original 90 day warranty expires.
Wow, that is very expensive. I believe I'll pass on that for a while. I'd rather buy some a game at this point. they shouldn't cost as much as a controller...

Garage was a very good map too...
My live gamertag is bucwylde23
We'll definitely have to play a few games, especially when Vegas comes out. I'm online most evenings and at various times throughout the weekends. Give me an add
