    Midnight Release

    Does anyone know if Gamestop will be doing a midnight release for the ps4 version. I'm off from work on May 6th and would love to stay up and play all night.

    Depends on your local GS store. Gotta call and find out.

      Dude you live in Philly.
      You guys have 24/7 Wal-Marts (the ones in Central NJ close at 9-10).

      Go in a little after midnight and ask for copy if its not already up. No need to worry about Gamestop, which will likely not have a midnight release.

        GameStop will only do midnight openings for The Show if there is another big game coming out that same day. I'd call your local GS anyways though, worst case scenario is that you could go to a Wal-Mart.

          The closest walmart to me is open 24hrs, but the electronics department isnt. If you go there too late, there's no one with a key to open the game section. I tried that before.

            I already asked when I paid for my pre-order at Gamestop and I was told no since there is no other "big" game coming out that day.

                  There is always digital downloads.
                  Digital Downloads will be the death of midnight releases for GameStop.

                  Sure you cannot trade the game in later, but a game like MLB, which has little trade in value anyway, might be worth it.

                    Just cancelled my gamestop preorder to go digital after being told that there would be no midnight release. Especially since there's a high probability of being able to pre-load it and start playing at midnight.

                      The thought of a possible pre-load has me seriously thinking about holding out for Digital. Couple that with the fact I have about $40 sitting in my PSN acct. Now add to the fact I'm not off again until next Sunday. Looks like a no-brainer. Finding it early would almost be a waste of $$$ especially if it's gonna cost extra to get it a few days early.

                        The pre order $20 in game credit seems good enough to wait for Gamestop. We will be into the season a month already and another few hrs is not going to kill me.

                        Im interested to see where they are going with the stubs.

                        And no Midnight release here near Seattle.

                            You can use it to pay for training points in RTTS and for a bigger budget in franchise I believe.

                            My thing is, $20 of it is hardly anything. And with how much it takes in training points now (to boost up aspects) the $20 is nothing. Especially since you can earn stubs throughout all game modes that can be used to purchase stuff anyway. I also prefer to earn all my points in RTTS, but that's just me.

                            I'm happily switching to digital. I've bought a few other games this way before and love just being able to choose it from the menu and play whenever, even with another game in the console.

                              Stubs can also be used in Diamond Dynasty if you play that. That was where they were of the most value to me, since I'd never want to use them for RTTS and Franchise (doubly so for Franchise because budgets grow too large even normally )
