Forums - Sony - Killzone 2 Release at Gamestop

Does anyone know if Killzone 2 will have a midnight release at Gamestop? When I went there to preorder my copy I asked the guy that worked there and he said he wasnt sure because it hasnt been preordered that much. I find that hard to believe since this is one of the most hyped games on the PS3.

its not one of teh most hyped...it is the most hyped



 

i do agree with u but some people would say MGS4 was hyped more

ONLINE HYPED doesn't equal REAL WORLD hyped i.e. GTA4, MGS4, HALO 3



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Depends. Any GameStop with over 100 pre-orders will be doing a midnight release.

Our store is pretty new (only opened in May), but we already had 17 pre-orders as of Tuesday night. By release we'll probably have over 30, so older stores, especially stores in larger cities like New York, will probably be doing a midnight release.

No midnight launches. Even SSBB and Gears 2 had a midnight launch. Not enough pre orders to justify the extra expence of putting 3-4 extra guys on the clock for about an hour and a half.



I went to the Halo 3 launch by my house and it had a line wrapped all around the shopping center with people in tents and lazy chairs. it had at least 300 people.

HUH?!!! Sometimes I wonder where you get your info...

OT: The gamestop I used to work at has 49 preorders and are already talking about doing one, so I guess it more depends on the store/location. So as of now, it's highly possible!

 

Where?

i didnt say it was hyped more then gta4--which was multi plat--or halo 3---please dont put words in my mouth

 

i did  howerver say it is more then mgs4  and in my area it is

 

 

i walk into my gamestop just five min from work and i se 4 differnt kz2 posters and a display rack devoted just to the game

 

then when i get up to th reg i have a giant banner greating me and a rack displaying three game mags with killzone covers (they are a promo item i think didnt bother to read any)

 

and as i was paying for my game (too human--a 360 game i might add) the clerk asks if i would like to pre order killzone 2 for the ps3

 

 

so yes---to me and many others in teh world k2 is being hyped up the who ha  and is the most hyped game for teh ps3



 

They make the decision on a corporate level. Not by indivisual stores. I called them and asked. You can also. They said that corporate has decided no but Resident Evil 5 might have one.
