    So who's getting it?

    I've got it pre-ordered. Just got the an email from HMV saying they've shipped it... 4 days ahead of release. Still, postage says "2-5 days" so it's either going to be up to 2 days early or 1 day late.

    When it does properly come out who's up for some co-op campaign?

    I've pre-ordred it through amazon, I wouldn't count on it coming early, massive delays due to postal strikes.

    Mine should be in Southampton by now, should be at least, but i don't seem to be affected by the strikes as yet as i've had mail from play.com in the usual 3 days in the past week.
    Here's the official site: Bungie.net

    Pre-ordered from Argos when it was on offer, don't know when it'll get here though.

    Completed the campaign on "Heroic" and loved it - its a nicely different take on the established Halo gameplay, although tbh you generally still end up playing like Master Chief anyway.

    On a side note, anyone else notice how Halo's plot was basically stolen from Starcraft?

    You do realise Blizzard have never released anything remotely original in their career. They make great games, but they're just very well polished versions of what's come before.

    Did I say it was?

    Nope doesn't look like it, was just pointing out how saying a game is ripping off another title that is also unoriginal is a bit ironic.
