Oh, it's out now? To tell you the truth I had not noticed with how busy I am atm...

Is there a demo on Live do you know? Will have to try it if there is when I get my 360 back online.

I was thinking of picking it up actually, but still knee deep in Burnout.

It's hella fun for sure. As for a demo, I have no idea to be honest. I didn't see one the last time I looked but then again I wasn't looking very hard since I now own the game. It may very well be my favorite game of the year. I have already beat it and I still have fun playing it.

As for Burnout, I am more than happy to do some online stuffs if your interested Ed.

and the verdict?

So far, I like it. Gears of War in the modern day.

They make some questionably moral story decisions, stock 9/11 footage and the like....

But hte game feels solid so far.

I dunno about questionable.. I dig fighting the taliban.

But then again, any game that lets me kill the worlds enemies is an ok game to me

Though I have to say, Co Op is immensely more fun than running with the AI. I am hoping that some DLC adds a few missions here and there as the game is rather short. I have already beat it twice since it came out, and I have all the weapons, upgrades and the weapon related achievements.

Meh, hte stock footage of hte towers burning is my general problem.

Seen that enough times, didn;t need to see it again, and it reminds me of people I knew and how it could have been me.

Maybe not a bad thing, per se...

Anyway, game is pretty cool otherwise.

They put in footage of the twin towers burning? Wow...surprised that got past the censors to tell you the truth. Pretty tasteless imo...

No such thing as censors here, just the ratings board, and as tastless as it might be, it was at least in context.

If it's anything like Gears of War, I may have to take a look. It could fill the void nicely until November 3 rolls around.

I am going to disagree with you on this one as you haven't had a chance to see the "footage" in question. We used quite a bit of PMC's during our invasion of Afghanistan. We also used PMC's in Iraq and are still using them today. So tying them in to 9/11 is a very valid reason. And the "footage" was very tastefully done I thought. They just showed like MAYBE a 10 second clip of one of the towers smoking on a television, they didn't go into detail about it. They didn't even say WTC or anything. It was more of an understanding then you continue off to do missions against Al-Qaeda, and such. Hell you start off in your very first mission in Somalia, and I don't think anyone needs to be reminded why that was a horrible time.
