I was lucky... Our local Rhino Video game store was bought out by Gamestop. They have a much better selection.

Finally had some time to play last night..put in 4 or 5 hrs and I must say this game in definitely good...got a couple of wows out of me with some of the time stopping and reversal.

Got through the first 2 acts...you have a casual, skilled, and elite campaign...I started with the elite since the achievements stack.

Weapons wise there are 9 different guns...varying from a small caliber pistol up to a rocket type launcher...each weapon also has a secondary attack which is definitely needed in the elite mode. You can carry up to 3 guns at one time and there are also a couple different types of grenades and also mines.

I have not played online yet...but it has the usual deathmatch...team deathmatch...capture the flag...etc...all customizable ofcourse.

I'd definitely recommend it...besides it not having a co-op campaign..the only other problem may be that it's a tweener game...by that I mean that its coming out just a short time between Halo 3 and COD4...with game prices some may skip....definitely download the demo at the marketplace and give it a try though...I'll try to embed a video below of some game play.

Sounds like some of the reviews I've read. They basically said had it come out 6 months ago when originally planned, it would have been better received. AT this point though, there's just too many other games and Timeshift isn't bringing all that much new.

Sounds like a good rental, especially after NC said it's a pretty good little game.

Yeah played some online today and wasn't as many people as I would have thought...really like some of the maps though...the frost has a sweet sniper tower.

I didn't even know what happened during H3's campaign so I'd imagine I'd like this much better. Now if mass effect would just get here...

I'm on fence with Assassin's Creed. Not much info released lately along with multiple reviews talking about how the controls are anything but intuitive makes me think this could be a good rental. I don't think AC has online components either.

Finally got back to this game and finished it up today on Elite...very good game that I'd recommend for a rental while you're on vacation.

I just started it with the link on here. I got both games in 2 days of placing them in my Q. I had A.C. top on my list but didnt get it but i like the price breaks they give you if you want to keep the game.
