I wonder how much of a phenomenon this game will be...will it seep into other forms of entertainment?  A full blown GOW comic?  A web-based cartoon?  A Red v. Blue, GOW style?  Mentions in TV shows and movies?  A feature film?  Can't wait for Emergence Day to hit.

I really cannot wait for this game, I bought a new HDTV just to play it!!

I am from the UK though, and I noticed that the american emergence day is before our actual release date.  Does this mean we dont receive all the cool emergence day festivities?

Just got back from the Showcase event in SF, all I'm gonna say is WOW. Wow in every way possible. The event was so much fun! SWEET gift bag!! Steve, Tony, you guys absolutely ROCK. The event was so kick ass. Gears blew my mind. It completely lives up to the hype in my book.  Thanks a million guys, and Tony, I'll send the pics first thing in the morning :)

Can't wait for GOW. Don't get me wrong, I'm not buying into the massive hype. The game will have it's flaws (like everything else), but what got me hooked though was the chainsaw and machine gun action, the awesome graphics and the cool storyline. I can see the singleplayer being AWESOME. Hopefully that translates over to multiplayer as well.

What i'm worried about is that the marathon gaming sessions i'm gonna be putting in on GOW may kill my console off faster. I played GRAW pretty much every day for 2 weeks solid and that fried my launch console. I'm just REALLY hoping the same thing doesn't happen to my new one. It'd be a damn shame.

I'd just like to say good job on everything so far. MS is taking all the steps in the right direction to ensure dominance in the market long after the PS3 comes out. First with a great game line-up, then the introduction of TV and movie content available to download. All that's left is better codec support and a few extras and you're golden. The only issue i have right now is EA abusing the marketplace with their BS cheats but apart from that, so far so good MS!

Hopefully i'll see some of you guys on GOW and keep up the good work.

I fully agree with Chris above...

"Next week, on Emergence Day (when it's widely available), Nov. 12, we'll have a full slate of activities... "

Unfortunately "widely available" doesn't include Europe. I guess we European gamers will miss this epic event...

It's just sad.

I really hope this lives up to all the hype its been getting this past year.

I'll be getting it hopefully today.  I'm sure I'll enjoy it.  I just hope the rest of the gaming community (ie non-hardcore gamers) enjoy it as well.

I went to the NYC event last night, and played GOW.  It is pretty friggin great.  I am not a big shooter fan and this game may turn me around.  I got home from the event at 1am and played the game at home for another hour.  It is pretty sweet.  Thanks to John for the event!

Just don't go to Best Buy. They said they won't be getting any until Thursday... "maybe". I'm going to try the two Walmarts near me after work, but it's not looking well. And this is in San Diego!

Ugh.
