I've gone to the last 5 CoD midnight releases and I want to share my tips with you guys.

1. MAKE SURE TO GET THERE AROUND 6 PM. The gamestop employees will give you a ticket (if you pre-ordered) that has a number on it. That number is the order in line you will be.

2. Have food ready at home. You'll regret it if you don't

3. Take a nap until you are ready.

4. Take something to entertain yourself. I use my phone and text the hoes Winky Winky

5. Get ready for a lot of talking. For some odd reason, people kept on walking up to me last year and starting conversations with me.

6. Fuck bitches, get money, play Black Ops 2

If you already paid for the game in full when you pre ordered what do you need to do?

I see midnight release as a good waste of time. Went to MW2 and Black OPS, and whilst I enjoyed handing out cards with a my gamertag on it challenging anyone for 1v1 quickscopes (wasn't mine, a guy I disliked) and judged/ridiculed the stranger looking people that rocked up, I found it to be pointless.

I'm just gonna do what I did with MW3. Show up in K-Mart that's a 24 hours, use some sweet-talk and buy it 15-30 minutes before midnight. Then proceed to parade around the lines outside all the game stores at the Mall here, informing everyone that I got it before them

I might just call ahead of time and see how busy the one I am going to gets because I am visiting someone else and won't go back to my place till later tomorrow night. Worst case scenario I will just pick it up Tuesday

I'm going to Best Buy so I don't know if they have a number system. I get off school at 7:45 tonight, so I'm probably gonna get home, take a shower, eat, and then go to BB at around 9 or so. They said the first 75 people in line get to play BOII early, so I'm gonna try for that, but I don't know if 9 would be early enough. Or maybe I'll leave at like 11 or so... not sure yet. Depends on how tired I am tonight.

Never seen this happen in the UK, although there is that guy outside HMV. I can go at midnight to me local shop/ store and just buy it straight away no need for queuing for it

even queueing 3 hours is just retarded, the game is ok but it isn't perfect like everyones expecting.
Just over-hyped as usual.

9:30 or 10 will be ok for best buy. They don't have the crazy lines like Rapestop have.
