I mean it was like a 2-hour adventure driving around my city. Wasn't doing anything else that day lol. But no, in order to visit 15 stores that sell video games it would not require driving around the entire county. I think I tried 3 different Wal-Marts, a few smaller shops that sell mostly used games but get in a small number of copies of newer games. At one point I found a "gaming store" online I had never heard of, I walked in and found out it was for tabletop games, there was a bunch of people playing Magic or something around a huge table, I was like:



15 stores was probably an exaggeration on my part as well. It was probably more like 8-10.

One year I got the Show on February 27. It was the year when Ryan Howard or David Wright was on the cover. It was at a Wal-mart, before the stores were made to hold games from hitting the selves before their release date.

I got the 08 one with Howard on the cover five days early. I walked into Walmart shocked to see it and my dad bought it for me. My friend was jealous haha good times.

Lol, I saw an ebay listing yesterday that said, "like new, mlb 15!" I was like what??!! So I message the guy and he goes, "sorry, I ment to put 14!"

Never gotten it that early. With this year actually being playable at 1201 est, that will be the earliest I've gotten it (expect for when Mass Effect 3 came out and I was able to get '12 at 1201)with what happen last year.

I think the earliest I got it one year was around 10 a.m when Best Buy opens, how could you get it any earlier than before the store opens?

I usually get the game at least 3 days before, most of the time 5 days before...
I think my best was a week before...

When does the "where and when" thread get posted?
Next week usually?

I love it when guys start getting the games and starts posting more details...
