When I was on the list there was only 250 people, something I will always be proud of. I was one of the first people to play one of the best games ever.

GoW didn't arrive at my EB yesterday, and I spoke to the manager today and he told me a major shipping problem delayed it again today for most stores in the upstate NY area. My buddy GoddfreyTGAC was able to pick his GoW and CoD3 up but mine won't be in purportedly until tomorrow. The manager at EB did tell me that he was prepared to give me a $5 credit for both of my preorders to comp me for the inconvenience. It was nice of him to do that. I guess I will have to sit tight again for these two amazing titles. I am so jealous of all of you who are playing already. I am so bummed.

Right now I give it a solid B, if (when) they add back all the multiplayer options they carved out to get it out the door maybe it can work up to an A-. At this point though much to my disappointment...a Halo2 killer it is not. Speaking of Halo...you shoulda seen the look on the guys face at EB when he offered to let me preorder Halo3 and I said I wasn't interested. Priceless. Oh careful now…A+ is way too generous.

I though the single player was great as expected although the controls are quite clumbsy. I did not have any success getting into a ranked or player match. It kept saying the connection errored. I don't know if this is a problem yet or not. I had no problem playing a co-op match with a buddy. I see you kept pace with me last night on achievements Deacon. ;)

They tried to argue with me that it is not being released until tom well come to find out they never recieved copies of Gears of War. So I called around to other stores in my area Game Stop, Best Buy, etc and it turns out noone has freakin' Gears of War!!! So I guess I don't get to play..
