Has anybody gotten it yet? If so is it worth all the hype and money or should I wait until I can get it used?

Everything I've heard is that the game effectively consists of a marginally cool voice command feature tacked onto a completely run-of-the-mill and mediocre RTS, improving the overall package ever so slightly.
I don't know, I'd suggest downloading the demo. The Voice command is actually pretty interesting and works well if you speak clearly (and have either an American or light British accent, apparently - Scotts, Kiwis, etc. have expressed frustration with the system). But it's pretty obvious, even from the demo, that gameplay really isn't all that deep, and that as RTS games go it's fairly standard stuff.
I wasn't sure how to feel about the voice command system - it worked fine for me and almost always interpreted what I was saying correctly, but I felt like a complete dork sitting alone in my living room and talking to my game console in dorky faux military jargon.
