I'm getting it. I don't think a pre-order is necessary, but I'll check with my local Gamestop anyway. There's no way I'm buying this thing through mail order seeing as they force you to pay $20 "special handling" on top of the already high shipping costs.

I pre-paid for it at my local Game Stop. In case I do not like it, as-if, I can still return it opened within 7 days for full refund. November 20th is the release date they have right now! Can't Wait!

Not me.
I don't like the idea of losing your save if you mess up.

My uncle preordered two of them and one of them is for me.
I haven't been following this lately,I don't even know the release date.
I don't even know where he preordered them from.
I've been so focused with Vice City and The MVS Neo that I have forgot about everything else lately.
Refresh me please..

I was the first to pre-order it and to pay it off (it's $287 CAN)...it's on a pre-order bases because they're only shipping 10,000 from China...It does not mean that if you didn't pre-order it, you won't get it. But it will be a challenge to get a hold of one...
Also, it's not on line...but the X Box Live version is already in development as we speak

I'm trying to debate on wheter to preorder it or not.
I'm waiting the euro release wich is march I think 
!
micro$oft is gonna launch the xbox live the same day, so I think there's gonna be an online option (but not sure).
I'm very excited about that game, specially for huge stick. I don't like the xbox that much, but this game (simulation) is gonna rock, I can bet on it.
with DOA X-treme beach volley, this is my most wanted non-neo tittle...
money, money, money... <img src="graemlins/ohno.gif" border="0" alt="[Oh No]" />

No way. I'll gladly take this for the XBOX over any other Capcom series or game. I've had enough Mega Man to last me a lifetime and Devil May Cry does not interest me in the slightest.
Steel Battalion is just what we need...something drastically different from all the other cookie cutter games out there. Sure, at its heart it's another mech game, but thanks to the included accessories, this is gonna be a console game experience without equal!!

This is an amazing game, but im getting sick of people saying how DRASTICALLY different this game is. REZ is a drastically different game. Cosmic Smash is a drastically different kind of game. How is this so drastically different besides the controller?

Speaking of great games that aren't that different...

Yes, Splinter Cell! I posted my thoughts about this incredible game in the thread about the latest demos on the new XBOX demo disc. If I could only buy one game this year, Splinter Cell would be it! I can't wait!!
Wether I buy this game or not will depend soley on how long it takes to play through. (and how good it is - nach)
If it has a first-time-through playing time of 20 hours or so I'll probably get it, but if it only lasts arround 10 hours then I really dont think having that enormous controller taking up shelf space for just one game is really going to be worth it.
(Not to mention the huge price tag)
And Capcom games have a history of being rather short.......
