I'm a big fan of Ghost Recon (1 & 2) and Gears of War so was looking for a new shooter to ask for this Christmas. I thought my only choice was Halo 3 (and there's enough hype to make you believe it's the only game on sale this Christmas).
After reading this review, I checked out a video review of CoD4 - and it looks superb. To be honest, I was already wavering from asking for Halo 3 anyway (two of my friends bought it and both said they didn't enjoy it - not a patch on Gears - and it looks too cartoony with all the bright purple/green glows - I like my shooters dirty and war-torn).
Anyway, thanks Mansized - you've made my mind up for me now! This is a firm fixture at the top of the list...
I'm getting this on pay day! Although now I am tempted to buy a HD t.v. now!
I've been waiting for Will to give me one but I don't think that's going to happen!
I'm lucky that I've got everything I need for Hi-def gaming (honest, I can't list it again it feels like bragging). My wife is great in letting me spend so much on boy-toys.
However, buying games feels wrong so they normally go on Birthday/Christmas lists...

It's because you are a money grabbing contractor! ;-)
When we look at T.V.'s she always says "That's too big!"
As if you can have a T.V. that's too big! The bigger the better, I want it so I can't move in my front room for T.V.!

LOL!!! It's more likely because I work all the hours I can and we rarely go out...

I feel you! We've actually got a quite a small new living room but another 40" LCD in there. It does feel a bit cinema-esque but that's what I want it for ;-)
It's also actually quite nice that she can watch Sky in the new room (in all it's glory) and I can play 360 in the other room. Now, I just need to stop putting so many hours in to work so I can actually do it...
