I may. I think the game looks absolutely stunning, and it supposedly plays incredibly smoothly.
The only thing that worries me is that I will get it, play through the single player in less than a week, and rarely play it again. If that is the case I figure I might as well just rent it.
I will see what the reviews say after it comes out. If it has some replay value I will most likely just buy it.

"Rage will span three discs on Xbox 360 and require an 8GB install on PS3, id Software creative director Tim Willits has confirmed. It was rumored that Rage would have a large install and multiple discs on 360, but it seemed as if id was leaning toward a slim-and-trim two-disc set, stating that a separate multiplayer disc-swap would be "fail." id didn't have to pick a disc number for the PS3 version of Rage, effectively utilizing the Blu-ray drive to hold all of the game's 8 gigs, something that Willits seemed very pleased about:
"Sony was great," Willits said. "Kudos to Sony for letting us do that. They don't allow every game to do that. So definitely, hats off. What we were able to do is install all the textures to the highest level. What is nice about the PS3 platform is that it's just one platform. Everyone has one Blu-ray drive, one hard drive, it's all the same. Some of the other systems you have... should I install it on my 360? Should I not install it? So yes, it's very nice."
For 360 versions, Willits said id recommends installing the game to the hard drive, or if you don't have the space for all 22GB, after installing and finishing the first half of the game from disc one, uninstall it, and then install disc two. There isn't a reason to disc-swap after completing the first half, and "you don't really need to install the multiplayer disc if you're really tight on hard disk space," Willits said."
ooooohkay, did some quick searching and now i'm totally confused on the time issue. some people are saying it's like 15-20hrs and some are like 50+.....wtf?

Bethesda and ID themselves said that it has a 15 hour campaign. However they have also mentioned it is open world. Fallout 3 only had a 20 hour main storyline, if not less than that, and look how huge it was. So there is still a chance that it is more like fallout 3 or borderlands.
The problem is I don't know if it is open world and there are many more hours of side quests or if the main storyline is all there is. They didn't really specify one or the other.
I really hope it is a big game.
I think a lot of the space it takes up is do to the graphics engine.

Oh I know man, that is the best looking game I've ever seen. Don't forget, there's always DLC. If it gets fallout 3 type DLC, I will be one happy camper

Happy to pay for bits of a game that coulda been included in the price...
Happy with developers trying to get 80+$ per sale. The work in making a game is in programming the engine, the fun part is designing the levels. It's a given that there will be lots of levels made after the engine's polished and the wheels are turning; the sad part is where console players made the idea that only developers can craft a quality map and the idea that maps are worth 10$ mainstream.

I like to pay for length and quality, if that extra $10-20 in dlc content adds another 10-20hrs then personally that's pretty good. Better than the games where you pay $60 and walk away beating it under 20hrs

Fair enough, it can always be that much worse. I just resent it. Hopefully they release modding tools for this one. That would create a community around it.

I'm buying Rage to hold me over to Uncharted 3, which will hold me over to Skyrim...
My wallet is getting owned this next month.

Do you mean like the editor that came with morrowind? That would probably make the pc users happier. I personally hate character and costume DLC, mortal kombat's the current example. That stuff should be included or given away after making too many sucky games.

Lol...really? I know a dude doing the same thing, but please don't tell me its because "Mr. Freeze looks soooo white". I won't knock on it, because it honestly does look good and asylum was a hit.
I'll probably do a review on here of rage when I get it as I'm playing through. So anyone that's been iffy can get some insight into it, if it sucks, I will say it sucks. Unlike those fucking website "reviews". Prince of Persia and Enchanted Arms

I am a bit iffy about Rage but I'm really hoping its going to be good. I love shooters but I'm sick of the borefest that call of duty has become.

My wife is bummed they didn't make Rage with a local co-op feature. We've played the fuck outta games like Borderlands. Good local co-op is awesome but hard to find, and I think we've played most of the good ones. She's totally stoked that Uncharted 3 is supposed to have co-op.

IGN gave it 8.5 but gave graphics 10 and gameplay 9. Said its a good game with a story and characters that fail to impact. I'm definitely getting it though, I'm a sucker for graphics and shooters.

Ehh, I don't trust those type of sites anymore. Unless there's a user/customer review I call BS after being burned too many times. I trust Yahtzee from Zero Punctuation more than those guys.
Buut, my body got his copy at midnight(lucky bastard) he's been playing the co-op missions and says "its fucking intense, anyone who was bitching about idTech5 can fuck off. Depending where you shoot someone determines how they fall. If you shoot em in the legs they fall straight down and they spin depending on what shoulder you shoot"

Sounds good. Now I just gotta decide if I'm getting it on xbox or ps. From what I've seen so far, the xbox one looks a bit sharper, but there's only screenshot comparisons so far. But I'm hoping the ps3 version is better overall because I have a heap of space on the hard drive and none on my xbox hard drive.

Arstechnica said to just skip this game as far as the single player action goes. PC and MP review coming later.
