I was with Doc Brown when he fell off the toliet when hanging a clock. He came up with the idea of time travel (as we all know) and he also said on November 9, 2004, the greatest Xbox game will OFFICIALLY be released. I was at EB the same day (Yup, they were around back then)

*SIGH* You've already come in this thread once and tried to wind people up already, but you have to come back and do it again dont you? When will you learn that WE (the consumer) are loosing NOTHING from pre-ordering, but we are GAINING a lot of stuff. So please stay out of threads that you disagree with.

You're right chilin_dude... I should behave like everyone else who pre-ordered and be a sheep, I should follow the heard and only post positive things in threads, I should NOT try to stir the pot and start a little *HARMLESS* contreversy... I should NOT express MY opnions, I should agree with whatever it is the thread says... give your head a shake man, this thread would suck worse then it does if it was just a bunch... of this...

Since when did a simple *sigh* mean that? I never once said you should buy it, I simply said that if you don't agree with pre-orders then don't go into a thread about them. Think of it this way:
If you didn't like Iraqi's would you go to iraq? No.
Of course you should express your opinion, but that is what the 'New thread' button is for, so that you can start a new thread on your views on pre-orders.
*Shakes head* I don't think that it would suck wose than it does if it was just those posts you quoted - It would be a hell of a lot better if you hadn't posted IMO.

Ok, whatever. I guess I must be imagining that I have got:
Money off
Delivered to doorstep.
Chance of receiving early.
No hassle of looking for shop that has it in stock.
Paid for it already when I had money rather than having to scrounge around for money now.
I guess that 'Shit' must have gone out of town.

Well i bought mine at Costco.com 10-27-04 and they were selling the limited edition for $48.99.
ROAR from what i have been told by 5 diffrent stores is that they have over a thousand reserves and that over 5 thousand games in a 20 mile radius.They say the limited edition will not be available until after christmas again and there is a possibility the the regular ones may end up the same way.So while i respect your principles i ain't waitin till after christmas to play Halo 2.I realize i will not get mine until probably the 12th because of the mail but i can wait a couple days been waitin two years already
