wait why are people in line if they pre-ordered?

Because some places have upwards of 300~500 preorders, and even if only 1/3 show up at midnight, that's potentially a long wait in line to get your game.

Anyways, you guys living in the US are lucky, you guys got midnight launch. In Canada, there's nothing going on. Unless someone want to fill me in?

Please, any canadians? I wouldn't mine going right now and getting it.

Tomorrow morning for me. :)

I liked the Heroes premiere but I have a feeling a lot of people are going to rag on it. Off to the Heroes thread to check.

Is eb forcing people to wait in line for three hours, or can you just get there at midnight and pick up your copy?

They aren't forcing anyone to wait in line 3 hours early. People want to do this. :D
 
Wow, this thread has slowed to an absolute crawl. Too bad I have to get up early to get the game but whatever. It's worth waiting for.

:lol It's only slowed to a crawl because everyone is waiting in line.
 
Why do they continue to do this audience participation bullshit on G4. They always have these half-wit people who don't know how to give an interesting response.

Why is this guy sitting in a red room!!?? WTF?!

Yeah, I'm still here cause I have to wait another 19 hours 39 minutes for the game to release over here. But I'll probably be watching the Bungie countdown to ease the wait..

Sorry to hear that :( I guess your the part of europe that didn't break the street date?

"Yeah, I figured that. You getting the game tomorrow?"

Well, tomorrow in the sense of midnight, I'm leaving in like 5 mins and hoping the lines aren't long. It wasn't too bad for halo 2.
 
its official, ign hates g4

note this is obviously a joke as g4 and ign are blocks from each other and im pretty sure a certain g4 host is dating a ign employee...atleast thats the hearsay

Yeah, don't think any store here broke the street date, closest was one store in Norway (I live in Sweden) that sold 6 or so copies..
 
i got the game played for an hour.

You know i am sorta dissapointed. The first level did seem to have cut and paste level design. SAme with the hanger area.

I just love the combat still. Gernades always feel so good.

not from my experience but when your dropping that kind of cash on a set its best to consider all scenarios

like i said they seem identicle spec wise, im thinking the only real difference might be aesthetic and that could be as minor as a slightly different color housing

Fuck, I guess I'll go to the mall.
I can't stand thinking that all the copies will be gone by tomorrow.
Hate this midnight shit.
Click to expand...

They won't be all gone, MS will ship 5 copies for every human being on the planet.

If you absolutely, positively must play it tonight then go out otherwise there will be a copy of it somewhere for purchase for you. I guarantee.
 
Holding strong in line. We wheeled out the Guitar Hero 2 kiosk and I went on a five win streak before being dethroned by a ten year old. :lol

An hour and a half left, guys. After three years, it's this close.

Sounds good. I'm going to bed then :)
 
So has anyone got their Legendary Edition yet? If so are they numbered, and does it say how many were made? Also it seems like the Limited Edition might actually be limited, they're sold out on GameStop.com already...
