Theres people everywhere running around trying to get this. Pure Kaos.
CNN has even made reports where people are actually geting beat up. Hahaha,
| quote: | | Detroit, Michigan- A teen patron attempting to purchase a copy of Microsoft's eagerly awaited, "Gears of War" was assaulted while waiting in line at a local Gamestop Video Game store. The 15 year-old was beaten by a 36 year-old waiting in line, also. Apparently, an argument ensued after the cashier claimed there were no more copies available. The 36 year-old named "Deion" started yelling and tried to cut in line in an attempt to purchase the last copy and a brawl started. The older customer sent a barrage of fists and harsh language at the younger patron. The police were then called. "Deion" was arrested for aggravated assault and is currently awaiting arraignment at a local correctional facility. The 15 year-old was taken to a local hospital for several wounds to the head and neck. The final copy of the game is being held as evidence. |

Trust me the game does actually live up to its hype by a long shot. Looks like microsoft $1 billion dollar investment did them well.
Good luck trying to get it.

Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) - At 4:00PM ET: $28.95 Up 0.11 (0.38%)
Microsoft is gearing up for very big gains in the future, and this simple game proves it. |

Unfortunately for Sony, the majority of the "killer apps" for PS3 will be available for 360 - Microsoft however is doing a great job of keeping it's exclusive titles just that; exclusive.
I was fortunate enough to get ahold of one of my m8's that I had worked with for 3 years at Software Etc. who now manages a Game Crazy 30 miles north of here. He happened to be running an extra shipment of copies down to the GC here in Point, so I did end up getting a copy today (The GC in Point didn't get enough in its initial shipment to fill reserves)! w00t!
Can't play it for a couple hours tho - Homework....  |

| I'm poorer than the average hobo so I can't even think about affording this title. Lucky for me, I got a bunch of local friends that have picked it up already. Too bad I don't even have time to play video games. School sucks. |
