I know that a lot of people in my dorm will be playing it as soon as they get it, so I will probably play with them. I only own a Gamecube and no one in my room has an Xbox. I find the release of Halo 2 a little too close to that of GTA San Andreas, which some people in my hall have gotten downright addicted to. I know one guy in particular is trying to get 100% completion on San Andreas and hasn't gone to class in a couple of days.
