So is anyone getting this game next week (in some stores next week)? I'm definitely picking this one up and can't wait to play. For those of you that have a 360 and haven't heard anything about this game (I guess you are living in a cave) IMO it looks to be the killer-app for the system (until Halo 3 comes out at least). I'm excited about both single and multiplayer, this game has the best graphics on the 360 yet and has some of the goriest gameplay I've seen in a game for awhile. Whether it's exploding headshots, rocket launcher/granades/shotguns causing a nasty mess or chainsawing your opponent in half it definitely won't be for the weak-stomached (although there supposedly is an option to turn the gore off... but who would want that heh). I'll be renewing my Live service as well for this game and Call of Duty 3. If anyone wants to play over Live send a message and I'll give you my gamertag.
 
What a cluster fuck today was. Some stores got it yesterday, we were supposed to get it today, but due to some shipping catastrophy by Fed-Ex (They use UPS for like everything, but decide to use Fed-Ex for this game, and of course they screw it up), we didnt get it today at all. So we had about 100 pissed off people who had it reserved. Ugh.

ok, got it last week and must say it's a great overall game and everything I expected it to be. Controls take about 30 mins - 1 hour to get used to, graphics are the best I've seen on the 360, very polished game with just a few small bugs. I've played about 4-5 hours single-player on casual difficulty and like what I've seen so far, I figure to try the game again on hardcore or insane after I beat it.

Multiplayer online is what I've mainly played and it's really a rush. Oh course I sucked the first few times I tried it, but after learning the maps and how to use the weapons I don't get completely embarrassed. The maps are all beautifully detailed and balanced (mansion or canals have to be my favorite so far) and there is nothing better than to walk up to some unexpecting guy and chainsaw him in half. I don't see myself getting tired of the multiplayer for a long time, especially with new maps/skins being added for download in the near future (I hear).

Finally got to play the multiplayer last night. All I gotta say is.........WOW. The only thing that would make it better is if it was on PC and I could use my keyboard and mouse, but a fantastic concept, and very addictive. I am the man with the chainsaw :biggrin:
