Double yellows everywhere near the Game shop though, and the most over zealous traffic wardens in the civilised world. Wouldn't surprise me if they were hanging around at midnight either :)
But if you are literally running in and picking up the box, youll be back in the car in under the minute? For some reason Ive assumed the store isnt inside a shopping centre but roadside :p

A bit off topic but considering it was all happening in here last night:

With the currys **** up and the £20 off seemingly anything, has anyone heard anything? I've just got an email to say my headphones are on the way with a tracking number for Royal Mail tracked :D

Just hope my killzone comes through as well!

Will try not to get too happy until they actually turn up but maybe we got away with it :p

looks like a lot of people are having their orders dispatched!

haha, you would think it would be that simple. Tried it once before when picking a game up, was no longer than 2 minutes but still got a ticket. They are like terminators round here man, appear out of nowhere. Remorseless :)

Then just park as normal - find a traffic warden and get them to escort you back to your car ;)

I'm torn between going to the midnight launch or picking up the next morning as I've got the day off work.

On the one hand, at midnight I can park much closer but Bolton at midnight on aThursday night is full of *******s (a guy got killed right outside the Game shop a couple of months ago).

Or I can go first thing in the morning when most of the idiots will still be in bed, but have to park much further away and lug the whole £500's worth of kit through town in a big GAME bag.

Hmmm, what to do.

game are doing a pre-purchase scheme where you can pop in on wed or thur before launch and pay for the whole thing ,get a raffle ticket of them and then walk in on Friday at 8 am and you'll be out in two minutes

Yeah I might nip down on Wednesday and get it all paid for. Have to drop the wife off at work for 8am and my son at school for 8:30 on the Friday, so will be about 9-ish by the time I get there.

Then it's a 1000 yard dash back to the car with a big ass GAME bag full of new shinies.

Still might do the midnight thing though...

That's what me and my mate are doing, paying for it next Wednesday and then going to the midnight release, and sprinting back with £900s worth of stuff :D
