I plan on picking this up next Monday night/ Tuesday morning when it comes out. Anyone else plan on getting it and if so when do you plan on picking it up? I am using a vacation day next week and plan on playing as much as I can that first 24 hours it is out. No wife or kids for a day and beer to drink. WooHoo!!

I thought the first game was good but it is the multiplayer that I like the best.

Follow Up
I picked up the game on Monday night and there was a pretty large crowd for the game store in my area. I was number 61 and there had to be close to 85 or 90 people waiting in line. The crowd was in a good mood and everyone was joking around which made the wait pretty fun.
Once I got home at around 12:40am I fired up the mutiplayer and started going at it with the rest of the gamers. I played for about 3 1/2 hours and for once everyone on line was being pretty cool. I am sure that won't last for long.
Tuesday I fired up the actual game and went through about 4 levels. What I have played so far has been pretty intense and the story looks very interesting. I have already played through the "controversial level" and I could take it or leave it. However it does not bother me.
All in all I like the game so far and look forward to playing it this weekend.

This is probably a rental for me, given the brevity of the campaign (I'm not into competitive multiplayer, which is this game's bread-and-butter).
Plus I'm currently playing three games at once: Dragon Age Origins, Ratchet and Clank, and Borderlands. I'm going to wait a bit on MW2.

How does the new Ratchet and Clank compare to Ratchet and Clank:Future Tools?
I was thinking of picking up MW2, but after reading some comments made by the CEO of Activision I changed my mind. If the campaign is short that is another reason to skip it. I really don't care for online gaming. Run and gun bores me.

I rented this to try it out. Intense and pretty decent; however, after playing it for awhile I was eventually reminded of what I've always hated in these COD games. I really hate the grenade spam that the programming pricks at Infinity Ward love so much.
