I don't understand midnight releases... Well I mean for a game like this you're going to be standing waiting forever whether it be getting there early or later. And then finally getting home and trying to play it?

Ill just walk in and get my copy tomorrow.

Got a pretty light day tomorrow so I'm not too worried about the lateness of hanging out til midnight and staying up for a few hours playing.

Being awash in a sea of neck beards is just the price I pay for being an impatient nerd.

I was gonna show up at 11:30 if I end up going get the game tonight. Never gotten a midnight release before so is this a giant mistake on my part?

1130 should be fine... they usually let people pay up until 1145-1150.

Even if they don't let you pay and get in a group, you will still be able to get it after everyone else has gotten theirs.

Get there 20min early. They check your receipt to make sure everything is paid up so they can just hand out the games right at midnight. Kinda like the lady at Sam's.

I got my reserved at GameStop on college, left earlier to get my pickup ticket.


The last midnight release I did was for Halo 3, and that whole line experience was crazy as hell lol

You still have to show up and finalize the sale of the game, and they can't start that until 10. After you finalize they put you in a group... This is how they do it on College, and I have been there for many midnight releases. Some people in TX posted they have already gotten in a group, so they must do it different at different places.

they're already finalizing shite. I passed through at around 8 and they already had 200 people queued up.

I got in group 21. I'm waiting back at my place for 11:30 to roll around.

better get over there unless you want to be #500 in line or some shite.

Well shite! Don't they close from 9-10? I got a text earlier that said to come in at 10.

Guess I will just pack a little extra good with me

So help an old dude out. I preordered and payed in full. Do I need to go up there and get proof? I can't just show up at 12 and pick it up?
