I've only ever done 1 midnight launch and that was at asda that was for gta 4 and that was only becuase I was responding to a call out at a curry house round the corner otherwise I wouldn't of bothered even tho it was a midnight launch they didn't actually start selling it till 1 in the morning my free curry was stone cold when I got in didn't even play it came home from work the next day and my missis was playing it

I changed my mind and got up at 6am to pick up my copy from Tesco.. I was too knackered last night to be able to enjoy it, and it felt a bit sad waiting at midnight [I'm no teenager

]. Anyway, the staff member I spoke too said they had well over a 100 people queuing last night in our fairly small Devon town, which surprised me..... so, installing now, with a nice hot cuppa

So, are you a medic, a cop, or was there someone in desperate need of an Indian?... a curry emergency

[I've had one of those]

other lad at work got it yesterday from amazon

myself might pop down and buy it later , or tommorow , what difference will a day make ?

I got it in the post, I'm really tempted to take tomorrow off because I'm almost definitely going to end up playing it all night in some caffiene fueled game binge.

Mate of mine went to the midnight launch in a little tescos metro and there was only about 10 people there.

Wonder what Cardiff was like, gonna try and grab a copy on my lunch, multiple shops around Cardiff so I should easily pick one up...hopefully.

Haha nah I'm just an electrician and a free curry was enough to get me out plus double time call out driving past asda I thought why not call in and see if I can get it

Got back from holiday yesterday so been asleep since, might pop out shortly and see if anyone has a copy left.

I don't understand the point of waiting for a midnight release? Surely if you want the game that bad you could have just pre-ordered it. I will see if my local Tescos has it in stock, if not I will order it online.
