    Re: Getting the game early?!?

    So the place I'm going to buy the game from tomorrow is not a big box retailer like Walmart or Target or Gamestop, but it's also not a mom & pop/independent type store. It's kind of a regional chain, won't say the name.

    Anyways, they close at 10. I was thinking about going in there tonight to try and convince them to sell it to me 2 hours early lol.

    It's not that big of a deal, if I really cared I would do the digital version and get it at midnight. But I've got a $15 store credit at this place that I figure I might as well use on the game. If they don't go for it, I'll just come back tomorrow.

      Does anyone know if i'd be able to get it at Walmart later tonight? I have heard from some that it might be hard for them to produce a key to open the glass case.

        If the store is close and you're not wasting tons of $$$ on gas, it's worth trying.

          I know some have said it's difficult but I honestly don't buy it for any 24 hour wal mart.

          I've been doing it for years in cities vastly smaller than Pittsburgh and never had any issues.

              Its a 24hr Wal-mart. There is a manager on duty. All departments are except eye & vision care areas...

                To be honest breh, 2 hours is not worth the hassle for you or the person that's working at the store.. right when they are about to go home at that... Might as well try it and see what happens if you want, but at this point you will be able to go to any Wally World in America and find the game legit.

                Either way tonight, You get the game. Nobody has to get fired over 2 hour street breaking. You've waited the good fight now man, it'll be that much better in a few hours lol..

                  I figured I'd ask this lol but is there any possibility of getting the game from Walmart at 9pm Pacific time when it's midnight in the east coast? Or will the system still shut it down from getting rung up?

                    I'm not getting it at midnight, either digitally or at walmart. I'm gonna go back and get it when the store opens tomorrow. Like I said, I'm buying it at this particular store because I have store credit there. So I'll just go get it tomorrow.

                    I already went in, they didn't have it out in the game case so I didn't even try lol. If they had it out, I would have tried to get it. But if they're smart enough to not put it out on display early, they're smart enough to not sell it early.

                              No it isn't.

                              They will sell some new releases but they are mainly a trade in store for video games and movies. I actually checked a few of them out here in Pittsburgh and neither of them had the Show for ps3.....


                              If you collect 45's like I do though they are fantastic.
