I went to the Call of Duty black ops 2 midnight launch and there were guys standing outside the store drinking bud light and everyone was talking about how they don't think the game is going to be very good but it is going to have zombies so they have to buy it

Jesus, it's like i'm there.

I went to the BF3 midnight launch and it was full of 12 year olds dressed like soldiers, I think a few even had airsoft guns it was embarrassing.

I remember picking up dark souls 2 on midnight but only because Titanfall released the same day and there were dudes who got the full little Titan package and I was like 'woah'

my brother picked up diablo 3 at gamestop at midnight (he likes physical copies or something) and there was a fat guy there that just wouldn't shut the gently caress up about skyrim and he thought he was absolutely hilarious and kept cracking bad jokes, usually ones that ended with "like skyrim, right?!" and "Am I the only dragonborn here??" i really really wish i was loving kidding

I went to the Gamecube midnight release. It was pretty cool, Gamecube was a rad system, though nothing came out at launch where it was really necessary if I recall right. It was nice because it was at a 24/7 Wal Mart so we could all wait inside.
