Midnight launch - when to stand in line!

Hi, 

 

just a quick question regarding the GAME midnight launch. Basically... when should I head down to my local store (Game in Eldon Sq (near the fairly cool Christmas thing, Newcastle). Having never bothered with a midnight launch, I have no idea if I should be going down at 11:00 or... now :smileysurprised:

 

Kind regards, 

 

Dan

It depends on how popular the store is. I queued up for BO at a local Tesco store, arrived at around 10pm and there was nobody there but it soon filled up nearer the time. The choice is yours :smileyhappy:

Re: Midnight launch - when to stand in line!

Last year I heard of a guy who queued up at 7.30pm. True story... they just beat him too - the rest of the guys that is. Missed the cut by minutes. Sad day for that little guy. Come to think of it he never got it. He was banned for being too late. His mother told him off and well broke his playstation with a hammer. All because he didn't leave at 7.30.. all because he wasn't 5 minutes earlier.

Take that as a lesson kid.. go now, before it's too late.



Well that's a slight exaggeration... surely if you left at like just after 11, yes you'll queue for a small amount of time but you'll get ur copy.
