While I already have the Shivering Isles, 1600 is well worth picking it up if you have not already.

Got Forza Motorsports 2 yesterday. It’s a lot of fun racing all kinds of cars and creating custom paint jobs.
Here is an official MKG Audi TT. It’s my current “A” class car.
Can’t wait to race some more…
It’s all over the place! Man, I was at GameCrazy at 11:15 to wait in line. CG had a drawing even though they had taken pre-orders… (wha?) so I got #106. Since they weren’t going to call my number until after 1am a friend and I went back to his house to play some Forza 2. Being my first time playing that game I was pleasantly surprised.
1am finally came and we headed back, to find them on customer 58. Ouch. I sure hope this goes fast. They keep giving out crappy Lost Planet posters and such, which is not helping the wait really. A friend and I talked about game for the next hour as we waited.
Just before 2 am they called my number. I walked up, picked up the game I’d already paid for and left. Of course, I needed to get up early the next day and would be out of town most of the day so I wasn’t even going to be able to play. But that wasn’t really the point. The point was I had the game. I had to wait 16 hours more to actually play it…
The menus are really nice. I had no trouble navigating to set up my characters look and logo. I chekced out FORGE first. Seemed like a great place to start. Then my wife and I played through the first two levels of the campaign. Aside from having to relearn how to reload, it was a breeze to transition from Halo 2 to 3. The graphics are amazing on my 32′ LCD running native 720p. Tonight, we’ll play a little and then maybe some online play. 😀
While I would never say Halo 3 is the greatest game ever made, I would say it is truly a great game. I am really looking forward to “finishing the fight.”
A screenshot from my game the other night. One of the coolest features I’ve seen an a game.. more to come on this.
