Forums - Gaming - Have you ever went to a midnight launch?

Never have, and most likely never will. Unless the game is destined to blow absolutely EVERYONE's mind.



Around the Network

Never have, never will.



I got Brawl at midnight and played until about 4am, that was great.




Nintendo still doomed?

thats all i can think of for this gen.
midnight releases are mad fun.

i was in the brawl tournament that night/morning and got second place

I don't see the appeal. Like you go stand there at midnight, get your game, and what you play it till 3am? Why can't you just go get it after school and play it. Do those extra few hours matter?

Plus if its an online game like Killzone 2 then nobody else will have the game (except the nerds who went to midnight launch) so it will be hard to find a game.



@ coolestguyever

it's just fun being at one in general. standing in line talking to people who are just as hyped up for a game as you are is just fun, ya.



Halo 3 and Mario Kart Wii.



I hate trolls.

Systems I currently own:  360, PS3, Wii, DS Lite (2)
Systems I've owned: PS2, PS1, Dreamcast, Saturn, 3DO, Genesis, Gamecube, N64, SNES, NES, GBA, GB, C64, Amiga, Atari 2600 and 5200, Sega Game Gear, Vectrex, Intellivision, Pong.  Yes, Pong.

No. I'd rather be doing something worthwhile. My pre-order can wait until the next day.

 

Actually, if it's something extremely, extremely special, I MIGHT wait in line. If a Valkyria sequel/prequel was hitting the US...I'd be willing to stand and wait in a blizzard.



Person 1: Does Valkyria Chronicles have trophies?
Person 2:  No.
Person 1: Forget it. I'm not buying it.
Person 2: Wait! It's amazing! Unique, charming, drop dead gorgeous... Hello?

MGS4 and FF12, I used to work nights so I was up and awake anyway, might as well get the game and play til dawn.
