Also looking forward to Farcry 3 and that's about it, not much else on my radar.

Maybe we can hook up with some Halo 4 - but at least one of us will probably need to be up at 3am. - I'm in GMT +10, you can do the math.

If I do manage to get it at midnight I probably will be up at 3 am..

xhonzi is probably getting really excited or Halo 2 right about now...

It does look fun, and that is all that matters.

Funny you ask if this friend is a Call of Duty every year kind of guy. He's not, but when Modern Warfare 2 came out he was obsessed with it and always telling me how great it was, while I held the position that it looked stupid and had no interest in it. A few months later I met some girl and she got me into it, and after a month of trying to figure the game out and repeatedly getting my ass handed to me all so I could spend time with this gorgeous girl, I kind of got into it. I bought Black Ops on release, really enjoyed it, and burnt many a hour on it. Also got Modern Warfare 3 on release, which this same friend of mine who tried to get me into Modern Warfare 2 refused to play because it is now sold out and lame, apparently.

Farcry 3 does look cool, but I think it is the type of came I wouldn't mind pulling a Xhonzi on.

As for hooking up for Halo 4 after it comes out, absolutely. Time difference shouldn't be a problem for us, I usually work a 7p to 7a shift, so I tend to be up all night on my days off (which are random).

Haha! That Halo 2 Xhonzi joke was great! But I've already played some Reach with him, I think Halo games have traditionally been above his waiting to get dirt cheap rule.
