|
|
I just got a call about 5 minutes ago, a recorded message from GameStop called my house. It was just telling me that they're is going to be a midnight release for WT starting at 10 P.M.
Anyone else going to a midnight release? _________________

It starts at 10 meaning they open the doors at 10 and let people pile in at that time. They don't form lines or give numbers (at least they didn't when I picked up Brawl). He could get there at 11:59 and just slip through the crowd. |

Depends on the store I guess. I had to wait outside and they only let 3 people in at once after midnight. _________________

well i did get a call, but I'm curious as to whether it was specific to my Gamestop or if they sent it to all edge members. Mainly because the store i got edge in is in a mall which should be closed then, so i didn't think they were having a midnight release, but if they are then sweet, i can afford to be there at 10 just to see. _________________

i dont get the point of midnight releases
you get it and play it until 3 am and then you feel like crap in the morning (or you sleep really late)
just wait until the morning and get it right when it opens up
there wont be as many people
its really for people who are patheticly obsessed with video games that they need it at midnight and cant wait _________________

I'm not "obsessed" I just go at midnight because I can.
I'm not even going tomorrow night, since there is a chance of me winning a full band kit free later in the day. _________________
