I was kind of hoping for something like the Halo 2 launch. This seemed kind of anti-climactic. The take away for me was reported glitches and supply problems and some pissed off people who put money down and didn't get a console on launch day.
I played it the first day on a hi-def projector and was impressed in places but not blown away. I wasn't expecting to be totally floored but in places I thought the game should have looked a little better.
Either way, it looks like I'm going to have to wait a few weeks to get one. It would have been nice to have a really good launch game, like there was with the original Halo.
If they keep up at this pace, the story is going to be PS3 - not XBOX.
