I guess I should get around to sending out friend requests to the GAF crew here. That matchup thread is pretty ridiculous, though, and I know some will only be for the first few weeks. I accept only the most strong and enduring of manbabies onto my list!

What's your gamertag, Traveler? I'll go ahead and add you now.
 
....I just won a LE at a local videogames stores. :D I owned some noobs at H2 :lol
So I got my ticket to get it at midnight!
So I got two LE now!!!!!

Oh really? Perhaps the better coach, but certainly not the better team. Yeah, they're undefeated, but that doesn't make them better.

Hell, they gave up points to ND's offense...that's sad for them.

They're getting better. We'll see if they make it past Wisconsin. I've always been a huge Wolverine fan but this year I think the Spartans have a chance at something big.

Just got back from the NYC event. It was a madhouse there.
I did meet Frankie, but was not about to whip out the camera, so no pics, sorry.

He was nice, and seemed less of an ego in person than online/on the podcasts :lol :lol.
I asked him what it would take for me to be able to play, and he said 'get in line.' No love for a junior. Really though, it was very crowded.

Glad I went when I did. Probably not be going back (sorry, Tieno).

I went ahead and added you. (TastyTerrorist --though my gamertag is subject to change as I have some XBL points lying around)

Most definitely, Dantonio was a great hire.

I now know what my Halo themed "Defense Force" avatar is going to be, don't I?

:lol

I already have mine (gamertag: hamm3rofgod) and I must say it is amazing.

As my friend said after our first session: this game is ACTUALLY perfect.

In a few hours everyone will have it and it will be glorious! :D
Click to expand...

Few hours my ass.

I won't be able to pick mine up until 8PM Eastern tomorrow, so out of respect for that, I'd appreciate it if you'd stop playing your copy until then.

Thanks.

It just hit me too. It's almost here!!! OMG the media coming in is sweet too.
Gonna be glued to Spike and G4 tonight.

oh sweet, just looked at Spike TV's schedule.... they're showing Goldeneye at 9 :D
 
My friends list is pathetic, namely no RL friends on there. The ones I do have are usually 12 year olds that I find in Halo 2 then remove 2 days later as they are annoying. Any mature players on want to add me to their buddy list for some Halo 3 fun? I'm a average or better player. GT: Smack Fu Master

Up for anything, campaign, private matches, just all around fun with mature players that wont mind a average player.

If you have it preordered, why would you wait in line? So you could get out 2 minutes quicker? :P
Click to expand...

I'm actually worried about the Legendary editions running out. EB says they have enough for all who preordered, but my spidey-sense smells bullshit.

EDIT: and yes, those 2 minutes matter hard.
 
Ramirez said:

I had to wait in line for 2.5 hours after midnight for Halo 2. There were over 300 people in line and it took awhile for everyone to pay up.

They're doing it differently now with the wristbands but that basically just means the long wait will be before 9:00 instead of midnight.

Because my first class is at 9:30AM, I need to obtain the game as soon as possible to ensure that the fight is finished before it comes down to choosing between Halo and school.

Yeah, let's think about. What's better, getting in line 15 hours early and only having to wait 2 minutes to check out, or getting in line at 11:30pm and checking out around 2?

Some people.

MSU hasn't played against any tough teams yet, but it should be interesting to see how we do against Michigan. We might have a chance against them this year.

I don't quite understand it either. I think it's just meant to be some kind of dorky event type thing.

Anyone else going to Game Rush to pick up a copy? I expect small lines

My copy is at a Game Crazy a block away from a much bigger EB, I think they only got like 20 copies total.

I'm afraid that's not possible. I will be racking up a sweet rank while everyone else waits on line and watches G4 and Spike's coverage.

As I said, he's a god.

I'll close the NCAA Football discussion (for now) at this:
Michigan doesn't need a great recruiting coach, as Michigan is a powerful enough name to recruit itself. They need a great playcaller and gameday coach. Like Tressel, who is the best human being ever (met him once, great guy). Sorry though, Tressel's taken.

Why are we talking about American Football?

The sport topic of this thread is Soccer / Futbol.
Click to expand...
there is no such thing as american football, there is football and that sport moms go to watch their kids play err gossip with like minded middle aged women while their kids are taught to play a game that is essentially a sissy version of field hockey
 
Anyone in Montreal have the status on Microplay's event on Mont-Royal ? I hope it wont be crowded... I called last week to preorder, they only asked for my phone number...

Ill probably show up by 10Pm.

HEY BUDDY, I DIDN'T START THAT, AND I SAID I WAS DONE, AND I WAS JUST HAVING A COMPLICATED DISCUSSION ABOUT BRUTE A.I. USING WORDS YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!
But yes, we shall.

so...

It's still not Tuesday. (sadness)

So, is anyone here foolish enough to want to do anything but play campaign first? I know I'm not doing anything with Forge or you people until I complete the campaign on Heroic.

Traveler are you buying Halo 3 in Perry or Macon tonight?
Click to expand...

I'm afraid I've already ordered two copies off the Internet and I can't really justify spending more. :lol I might go to the Gamestop midnight opening in the Best Buy parking lot in Macon though.
