Re: Does your store do "Midnight Madden Madness"?

Nope... I wouldn't go to a MidNight Madness... Takes too long to actually GET the game and get home to BALL OUT when everybody is there. I just go to the nearest 24 hour store with a game section, get the game and go home to play.

Goodies are nice, but to me Madden is the prize.

I may not even go at Midnight this year (Im getting a little old to be doing that anymore) and I can just get up early and go to Wal-Mart. It used to be a great night (Stay up all night and play when I got home, sleep for a little bit, get up and play the rest of the day)
The one by(in) the mall had a little tournament last year for Madden 11, but only two people showed up so we just had one game of M10. After that, they had a few little fun games and what not to kill time. I don't know what they're doing this year, I relocated out of state.

Didn't preorder last year, but dropped by Walmart.

There were Doritos, Code Red, and Cupcakes for those in line:

There were swagger bags too, with Old Spice and related products.

I used to work at Game Crazy. It was usually a no flair affair. After that its been gamestop. Usually a madden kiosk setup and a tournament. But the prizes were just stuff they needed to get rid of.

2 years ago best buy and a radio station had an event from 9pm-midnight where you could play the game against people and win prizes everytime you won. I made it to the final round and took 2nd. Got a best buy $50 gift card so I used that to buy the game and paid the difference. They had a DJ and pop and pizza all for free. Wish they would do that every year.

That sounds like a great time. I wish my local places did that sort of thing.
