Is it sad of me that no game has ever made me stand outside a shop to get the first copy?

I feel the same, there isn't any game out there that i would be willing to stand outside a shop lol. There's loads that I really want/ed to play etc, i just buy a retail copy or digital depending on price difference.

TDU2 was a game I couldn't wait for, it came out and wasn't really all that, its a good game but not what I expected.

I'm currently looking forward to BF3 and Driver San Francisco, both have been pre ordered :cool:
 
Rome: Total War - So much expectation, but I became quite the gaming cynic after its release... No game has ever got me so pumped up since and I always expect games to be less than perfect now.

Could never queue up outside a shop for a game/console/ipad though. :p
 
half life 2, i even bought the CE!
warhammer, i drove over 3 counties in order to get in on release day as retailers were starting to drop PC games.
a bit older and it would have been gran turismo, silent hill & time crisis :D
 
Doom3 and Half Life 2, the early videos released for both games got me really psyched. I remember a lot of people on these forums upgrading their machines and they were both pushed back a year!
 
Definitely, Driver 1 on the Playstation, amazing to the fact that the next driver? Driver: San Francisco (No matter how abysmal releases since have been) has got me excited all over again.

Metal Gear Solid, the entire franchise -- I don't have a PS3, never played the latest ones, always hoped eventually they'd roll it on the PC.

GTA IV
 

No advertisement has hyped me up as much as the above. Epic.

Yes!

COD MW2 as i was a massive fan of cod4 and sunk day after day into it then what disapointment mw 2 was :(

I did, and this is the only thing I have ever queued for lol. I was also a bit let down :(

I don't stand outside shops waiting for a copy of anything. To do so is sad/pathetic/tragic. I know of people that do and they are indeed those things.

Your doing it wrong! The cool people stroll over from the pub lmao
