I've just added my name, because I think it's a great gesture (is that how you spell it?). Gamers need to be more mature about reacting to Jack Thompson. If we all stay calm and do things like this -- OK, maybe not exactly like this --, maybe he'll finally stop going too far with his insanity.
Oh, who am I kidding? This won't change anything in Jack. But it can affect the opinions of those he's trying to convince. If those in control listen to the gamers instead of Jack, he's harmless.
From my experience, the 360 launch was amazingly successful. After waiting 25 hours in line at Wal-Mart, I got the premium pack & 4 games. I've gotten 2 more games since.
The games are excellent. Sure, there wasn't a "killer app" at launch, but all the games I have are great. CoD2, PGR3, NFS: MW, Condemned, Kameo, PDZero... all are excellent. I haven't had this much fun on a console in a while.
The new Xbox Live is perfect, so far. The integration into the games, awesome mulitplayer, Achievements, gamercards, rankings... it all works so well.
The next few months are going to be amazing, with many new games being released. I can't wait!
