    What makes you say that? Although I didn't care too much for Halo 2, I thought the matchmaking system was pure genius.

        WTF!?!?!?

        What about unranked games? Will you and three buddies be able to select from playlists or hosted games and join a room for four on four action? We hope so.
        Are they saying we might not be able to get a room of 8 people we know and play? I can't be reading this right, no way unranked games will be random people as well, will it? If so, might as well cancel my pre-order now. Playing with friends on xbox live is why I buy FPS.

            It's not a problem in unranked games.

              I just wanted to start a game with a few buddies and have randoms join...that could never happen in Halo2. You had to do their system and get in a game that way. It was just annoying to me.

                Were only a few hours away from EMERGENCE DAY.

                I'll be like a little kid in a candy store once I have this game in my hands.

                      For me it starts the second I place the game into my 360.

                        Wow, I know this sounds childish, but I'm thinking of taking the night off of work ( 3rd shift) to stay home and play the hell out of this game. I've got one more sick day to use up before the end of the year, and there may not be a better time than this. Been tossing the decision around for the last couple of days, but cant decide.

                          Not being able to have the game tonight allows me to do homework that is probably badly needed.

                            This is a very important day. Just tell your boss that the Locusts are coming and you must stop them, so your not coming into work.

                              From the 1Up review:

                              "You can always find reasons not to give a game a review score of 10. Control issues (Gears of War has that). A.I. problems (that, too). Bad dialogue or story telling (yes on both). Linear levels, online lag, limited modes (yup, yup, and yup). But as I was playing through though the game, I found one consistently good feature: It was constantly impressing the hell out of me."
