I picked up my copy at about 1:30 Am and gave in and bought a wireless controller as well. I then went straight back to work. I purchased the Special Edition with the Extra DVD, so I popped that in, it brings up a warning, "Watching this DVD may alter your Halo 2 experience, if you don't want it to, cease viewing immediately and return when you have completed the game". Rats... pulled it out... don't want to spoil everything...

I also wanted to grab the soundtrack, as I have been burning my ears off with the Breaking Benjamin song "Blow me Away" that was written for Halo... when I listen to it my head dances with images of a Marine Contingent putting boot to ***. It's an awesome song, alas, the gamestop I went to didn't have them. I will order from amazon.

if you want to hear it, go to www.xbox.com go to the halo section, there is a big blue button that will stream it for you... or, I could not be lazy and post the exact link.
