Definately a rental for me first. If I like it, I'll pick up a copy. After seeing the development on this game, I know that it's definately worth checking out. I just hope it doesn't turn into a Bloodwake in the sky. That's my only hesitation.

I'll be on R6:3 for sure. Next for sure game is Links 2004. I can't wait!

I've been kinda worried it would turn into MA in the sky. Definitely looking forward to this one.

And yes, you can get out of your plane. I'm not sure what all you can do, but there are definitely guns you can man.

Now, that makes it sound cool. I had no idea about that. Sweet!

I have the original PC version of Crimson Skies and its a lot of fun. The story line is cool and different and graphics are pretty good (should be even better with this new Xbox version).
Should be fun, I look forward to it.

The original Crimson Skies for the PC came out in 2001 and it is sweeeet. From the in game footage I've seen it actually looks much better on the XBox. Plus on the XBox version I read you can steal other planes and get out of your plane and man gun turrets. CTF with wings is going to be a riot on LIVE. 10 more days... WOOOO HOOOO !!! :D

EB is offering some sort of figurine/collectible w/ pre-order.

Not for me, but I thought I'd pass it along.

I'm gonna rent it first just to test it out. But right now, I'd say there's an 80 percent chance I'm gonna get it.

What day does it come out anyway?.........Officially

Look at the homepage it says oct 31, but it might be oct 21 since all the other websites say that.

I will be picking it up shortly after it's released. It was a blast to play at E3, and I can't wait to get my hands on it for a little longer (If single player does not unlock anything cool, it's strictly Live gaming for me).

I think Crimson Skies allows you to unlock 10 additional planes in the single player mode. That's what it seems to me. Or, can you be all of the planes in multi-player right out of the gate? I'm not 100% positive...either way, I'll make sure I have all the plaines shortly after picking this bad boy up :D
