- rewritable, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1closest walmart doesn't have one. Plymouth, Indiana is nearest and they say they dont have one yet. I hate going walmart anyways, everytime i go i get a new dent on the side of my new car. One of these days I am gonna get me an old 70s pick-up and go to walmart or the grocery store and SMASH into every mother ***** car I see then mabye they'll be more curtious with my new Caddy lol.

Must be a Nintento Gamecube Lover, ***** graphics, but fun gameplay! (Agreed!) - FSFunky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1ilyaq, maybe some of us don't leave in the States and therefore cannot go to the closest Wal-Mart. ;)
- netwookiee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I had t make a trip to Wal-mart this weekend, so I stopped over and tried out the 360. I couldn't believe no one was playing it. Most of the time I go in there all the games are being played.
Anyway... The graphics were awesome on Call of Duty. The game play was great.
And it only gets better from here on out! - Dragular, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's odd that so many Walmarts don't have them... I live in the definition of Hickville, USA, and our walmart has one. Gotta say the controller feels nice, and I'm Sony Fanboy.
One thing that does bodder me tho is the fact that they're using hi-def monitors for the 360. Yeah, it makes the games look great, but the majority of your average Walmart shopper doesn't have a HD tv, or at least their game console won't be used on it.
Nevertheless I'm definately getting CoD2... be it for 360 or PS3 or PC, somehow I shall have to get this game after playing that demo. It was teh sweet. - SkeletaLlama, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I tried to play the 360 at my local Walmart the other day. It was frozen when I got there so I asked the guy with the keys to the display case to reset it for me, he kindly obliged. I then tried to load King Kong and it gave me some ***** error screen about not being connected to a network and then rebooted itself, twice. So I tried to load Call of Duty 2 and it froze up on the load screen exactly as it had when I first saw it. I didn't ask the guy to reset it again, what was the point? The guy standing behind me watching me fiddle with it said he was going to buy one but wanted to see the graphics first, but after he saw it freeze up and reset repeatedly he said he was having second thoughts. I was pissed. So I'm waiting a year or two for them to fix those problems and come down in price. I'm not paying $400 for a system that can't load a demo without freezing.
- ra3ndy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Boy, did the guy playing King Kong look like he was having SO MUCH fun, or what?....
Looks pretty, does not look very fun, tho. Unimpressed. - merdeisel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"looks ghetto"...??? haha... when blu-ray fails that will be "ghetto".. and no I'm not "jocking" either.
- bossm4n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Exact same CoD 2 demo they released for PC. It will be interesting to compare the two graphically.
- WarlordFDC, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Bestbuy local has one as well. Watched people playing for a bit on Sunday.
- jull1234, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I went and played last weekend, but I was pretty concerned about the graphics that I saw. They looked great except for the edges...aliased as hell. I suspect (and hope) that the smarties at Wal-Mart configured the display or xbox incorrectly. Anyone else have a similar experience?
- chileman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I played the 360 at Wal-mart. Wasn't too incredibly impressed with CoD2. I'm 6 foot tall and the screen was about 3 foot higher than me and it killed my neck to see the damn thing. I'll just wait til I have one in the living room.
- TokinDerrick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0can't get the videos to play, but then again, I'm in a university's library.
- jk_baller23, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The videos are quite short, about 20 seconds. I'm betting the closest walmart here doesn't have one either. I too am cautious when parking at walmart. I am always trying not to hit a cart when parking, lol.
- BluParadox, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The color on the videos is pretty messed up, so you cant see anything special about the graphics.
- Punisher2K, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I find all they hype funny. A year from now no one is going to care about this video. We always want what we can't have but once we have it it's on to the next thing.
- hAnkyPhexTwin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The thing that gets me most about my Walmart is the low quantity of Game Cube games, huge selection of PS2 games. And does anyone know where I can get those memory convertor to usb adapter so I can take a thumb drive to transfer like saved games off the net.
- Kii666, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I liked how the guy playing CoD2 was going "oooh" "aaah" at the explosion effects. Just from that video, it didn't look any better than the PC version, but I might change my mind once I do actually play it for Xbox 360.
- Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I had the "honor" of playing one this weekend at my local Wal-Mart and I will have to say I'm not really that impressed. The games have nice shaders and everything, but that's about it. It can't really do anything more than a mid-high range PC as of now. I thought that the jaggies on the CoD 2 demo were really, really bad, but Kameo did look really nice. Then again, they're just launch titles, so I'm not going to write the console off right away
- merdeisel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0go here to locate one near you.

- wittydrewy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I think 360 is a waste of time and money. I am just going to take the money for a 360 and use it for my PC. Nothing beats PC games!
- saggygrandma, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"What kind of a nerd must you be that you'd rather download a video on your computer of someone playing a videogame than get out of your damn house, drive down to the closest Wal-Mart (there are THOUSANDS of them scattered all over the damn place) and try it out yourself?"
Geeee I dont know, maybe the kind of nerd that doesnt live in the center of the universe you call the united states? - kurt880, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Digg effect. The downloads are extremely slow.
- animefx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0it might have been a little bit bigger maybe 24" tops, but you didn't have resort to name calling for a simple, and honest mistake.
- saggygrandma, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0""looks ghetto"...??? haha... when blu-ray fails that will be "ghetto".. and no I'm not "jocking" either.""
Haha yeah it will fail.. your a f**ing tard - BugMeNot2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0HaloNation. That sounds retarded.
- hAnkyPhexTwin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1It stinks more if your next to the border like that of Tucson...and I am Mexican. Oh btw, my Walmart doesn't have it
- n3tfury, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0that guy has no clue what he's talking about. "uh, looks like hi definition. uh, 17" monitor"
retard. - animefx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0that was me, and it is a 17" widescreen hi-def (or hd) screen. so you are the retard and probably a jerk as well.
- andreizilla, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I'm not Mexican enough to go to Wall Mart.
- m4v1s, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0halo fanatics creep me out
- TimmyK., on 10/12/2007, -1/+0"halo fanatics creep me out"
Just for that I'm going to cut your face! Oh wait... Is that why? Sorry, never mind on the face cutting thing. - TimmyK., on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Oh my god that is so cool!
Um... almost as cool as when I went to Wal Mart the other day and played Call of Duty 2 for myself. I feel for the people who don't have a Wal Mart near them. Well, not really you lucky bastards! More I feel for those who have to put up with the evil of Wal Mart anyway, but are near one that doesn't at least have something cool like a 360 on display. But I can't see that being many. If the Wal Mart by me has one already they must be pretty common. I'm sure they will all have one soon enough. If you live so far in the boondocks that your Wal Mart doesn't have a 360 I can't see you having the highspeed internet connection to download these videos. And if you do have the connection and are that desperate, might I suggest going to IGN and downloading some quality videos of the gameplay instead? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Well, then you're excused.
- sinister, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0bunch of racist rednecks what the ***** is your problem?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0What kind of a nerd must you be that you'd rather download a video on your computer of someone playing a videogame than get out of your damn house, drive down to the closest Wal-Mart (there are THOUSANDS of them scattered all over the damn place) and try it out yourself?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0oooh im going to wally world ... probably gamespot though

-bogey - heartless_, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0OK I am sick of this garbage about the 360 at Wally World.
http://ihatexbox360packages.blogspot.com - mooninite, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0Since you can have higher res monitors and higher res textures without a mod chip, the PC will still win out. I'm sorry.
I think I'll stay at home and use my PC... Wal-mart stinks of mexicans now.
