Sounds like a sausagefest

**Kuya** · 2010-09-12 19:18

Halo was made for sausagefest.

**Kyo** · 2010-09-12 19:19

Anyone who has been to a midnight release able to tell me about how long it takes? Line here starts at 10, but I probably wont be in line until like 11:30 cause I will need to eat first. I know it's all relative and changes for each game, but I would assume people just want to get the fuck out and get home asap and wouldn't take that long, yeah?

If its Gamestop, they pre ring from 10 on and give you a number, and then once its like 10 minutes to midnight, they herd you up like sheep and call people in 10 at a time by number. Moral of the story, go at 10, pre-ring, then go eat.

It also helps if you know the GS, because at mine the line to pick up the game starts outside, so I pre-ring, and while everyone is clusterfucking inside I sit outside at the fornt of the line. Last 4 midnight launches I got there between 11:30 and 11:45 and was always in the first ten to receive my game.

I wish. I don't get into town until like 11pm+ on mondays from campus, so I guess I'll just grab my food after then, thanks for the tip.

No problem, I have alot of friends who normally go, so I am the type of nerd that goes at 9:30 and hangs out, lol.

Trust me, I'd be there if I could. I was trying to keep my mind off how bad I want to play reach by watching the NYG game because of Bradshaw being on my fantasy team, and the first commercial was for Reach.

Owned.

Just got ready for work, 19 hours 48 minutes :D

**BadKarma** · 2010-09-13 10:59

**Kiarax** · 2010-09-13 13:49

4 hours!

Spoiler: show

Been playing it today.. So much fun. Bungie put in a little note saying "Thanks for testing the servers before the release tomorrow!", and just been having a blast with a bro doing some slayer. Can't wait to get some games going with more people.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's because the disk is nearly filled to the gills.

Dont get too attched to those credits you earned, they're resetting them at midnight.
