Maybe at one time it was, but I don't see it that way now. To be a game of chicken, each side must believe the other side may eventually back down.
Personally, I think President Bush has gone too far to back down now. Likewise with Saddam.
I agree completely, however, that the outcome is still unknown. Most Americans vastly underestimate how serious a major attack on us could be. The stakes are incredibly high.
