Emergence Day: A Day of Decisions

Ok for those of you who are planning to pick up GOW, COD3 and R6:V on Emergence Day (November 7th), which game are you planning to play first?????

GOW of course is probably the biggest title released that day, but after watching gameplay videos of COD3 and R6:V, I'm totally at odds end. Unfortunately, I have to work that day and pick up my preorders after work. I think I'm leaning towards COD3 or GOW first. But R6: looks so good too. I'll probably toss a coin or something. Decisions.........

Decisions indeed. I may give them all about 30 minutes game time just so I can drool a little more, then the real decision will have to be made....which one gets a few hours nonstop gameplay

They are all going to be great, problem is I'll have Splinter, DOAX 2, and FEAR to deal with as well.

Perhaps all three in 30 minute intervals as Spoon suggested?

or just pick them all up at seperate times!! haha...
Hypothetically, if I was in that situation, I'd go with Gears first. I'm a graphic-whore and that looks the most "graphically impressive" to me. The others are certainly nothing to sneeze at but, I know given time I'll give them the attention they deserve as well.

My copy of Vegas is coming El Cheapo mail service, so it becomes a choice between CoD3 and GoW.

I'm think CoD3 is going to be a more appropriate MP title, where as I'll be playing GoW, intially, for the single player campaign.

Your absolutely correct. You know it kinda "hit me" that they were after I submitted my post. Disregard my dumb comment. Anyway, great idea nonetheless.

I don't think a formal date has been announced. All Ubisoft has been saying is Holiday, and more recent, November 2007.

If it is delayed, I wouldn't be surprised. Going up against Microsoft's major holiday title and an established popular franchise that isn't coming off the heels of two failures is a tough market to crack.

Great question because I plan to buy only one on the 7th. I think my decision will mainly be based on online player amount (because I want to play with you guys) and a kick ass single player campaign.

While eye candy looks awesome, GOW's MP numbers are rather low.

GOW. I'll be renting the other two titles and it takes 5 days to get here from the West Coast. I'll just buy them from Gamefly if they are worth keeping, which I'm sure they will be.

I will buy them all, seeing as though I have to use up my BB gift card.. I'll end up playing COD3 all the way through ,first. They should let you be Patton and only have brass knuckles for a weapon so you can manually face smash Nazis.

Frodo, I'm with you. Not too sure if I'll pick up GOW, but I'll be getting COD3 on launch day and R6 soon after release.

I hope R6 is delayed a few weeks, it will make the decison making process a tad easier. I think I'll hold off on DOAX 2 as well, I can fondle the wives with thine eyes any time

Gears: being bought for SP and Coop thru story

CoD 3: being bought for SP Veteran (this series would become my number 1 of all time if it would let me play Coop with Brew on veteran and with friends on lan!) Make a damn coop mode!!!! Ahhhhhhhhh

Splinter DA: being bought for SP (coop got raped)

R6 Vegas: being bought for 4 player Coop Lan parties, and MP online (Only title I'll play of these 4 on Live).

FEAR: being bought for SP

DOAX 2: do I even need to comment?
