    Depends on where you live, and the gamestop location. If the location is in a mall, they wont do a midnight release not unless they have an outside access door. At least the Gamestops around my area are like that.

    Hmm, most times if there is alot of preorders at the store you are going to...I think the worker at game stop said something around 50+, they will have a midnight release. Maybe it wasnt enough, or like you said...An epic fail on that stores part.

    I'm hearing of a lot of the stores not doing it. Every one with a preorder should call the store they use:/

    OR you can get a good night sleep then go and get your game after you've had breakfast and coffee, that way you can enjoy the game to its fullest.


    I went to the midnight release of the Sega Dreamcast, 9/9/99 it was awesome but I fell asleep after a few hours of playing.

    So there was these two bulls up on the hill, the younger one said to the older one "Hey lets charge down there and get on two of those cows. The Older Bull said "Hey why don't we walk down the hill and get them all".

    You can get it at midnight at wally world thats great.

    Don't blame a store or company if this game is not selling well enough for them to warrant the time and money to put into releasing it at midnight.

    Theirs a lot that goes into it to decide if it is worth it Example employees they have to pay over time, utilities, and for inside a mall teaming up with security to have doors open and a line watched.

    For borderlands 2 every freestanding game stop was open at midnight some of the malls where not, for halo 4 and diablo 3 all stores where open at midnight, it all depends on the number of people ordering I am near a major city ( Phoenix) and a college town ( Tempe) and their are not many if any midnight releases around here it just did not do that well in pre orders.

    Midnight release would have been great with out it do to work I probably will not be getting mine till friday so my UE sit's their because I can't pick it up till then and was told they would be doing a midnight release when I pre ordered my copies but now their not.

    Just the way it goes with gamestop.

    Did you preorder from Walmart?
    If not,are you sure you still get the bonuses?

    I'm just curious,as I'm going to my local Walmart as well,it would be cool to get the bonuses even if I didn't preorder.

    Its not that I'm mad they aren't. I'm mad I was told they had the orders to do it when I put in my order. They just aren't doing it now

    Of course, there's no benefit of canceling a Gamestop order in order to go to Wal-Mart instead if you're in extreme hype mode, since that likely means ordering an Ultimate Edition, which is a Gamestop exclusive...

    I payed full for two copies of the collectors edition, I just called to see if they were taken any more.


    So A) they didn't make enough or B) they didn't think it would be this popular or C) all of the above.

    This is why I usually don't preorder. And never from gamestop. They always have a reason.

    The servers are up at midnight, so getting it early will still be awesome. Trion stated that it will be midnight Eastern time, so i guess it depends where you live.
