! Holy shit. That's great news. As an aside: I can't imagine doing this for anything other than food or water to stave off death. I did it once, for GTA IV, midnight launch, and that was enough. At least these people are sensible enough to not be rolling around on the ground/laying face-down in filth.

I actually enjoy doing this stuff. I find it exciting. Plus, there's always alot of fellow gamers to talk to etc. It's fun.

:) Yeah, well fair enough, to each their own, and all that good stuff. The GTA IV line was about 90 minutes worth of standing and waiting, and it was A: Not fun for me in general, and B: Filled with anxiety, because I'd overheard that the store was requiring photo ID at the pickup ( which ended up being true ), and all I had was my reciept after biking a few miles to the store late at night. A manager who knew me from a different store was there and let me have it without ID. Phew!
