Looks like a way for some of us who aren't able to get it early to try it out before buying it. Unfortunately my Gamestop doesn't have midnight release

They do realize that 12:00 AM is the start of the new day and not 12:01, right?

Good looking out here. It looks like I will be able to pick my game up at 12:01 at the game Gamestop I pre ordered from.

I was curious about midnight release seeing as though I live right next to the university. So I started to do searches and finally found this. Of course just like every year no Arizona release. Not even in crappy Tucson lol

If that is also a list of all gamestops that will have a midnight release, looks like my local one isn't having one. Not only that, there doesn't appear to be a single one in Manhattan that I could change my preorder to. There's no way I'm traveling to the Bronx/Brooklyn/Queens at midnight for this as I'll fall asleep on the train ride back.

Still holding out hope the local one decides to have a midnight release at the last minute and I'll call Monday to see, but it does not look good.

Re: Gamestop - First To Play Weekend/Midnight Release

Yeah last year was the first year I just went to wally world to get it instead of 20 minutes away at gamestop.. it was easier and faster; one other guy was there getting it at 12 am

The GameStop in my city is having a midnight release and is right next to a WalMart. Hmm, where to take my business? NCAA 12 "CAN'T WAIT" (Bart Scott voice)

Re: Gamestop - First To Play Weekend/Midnight Release

Does Gamestop refund pre-orders? I might just go to wally this year.
