Nope, our GS has 440 orders on reserve. They are projecting half of them show up at midnight release.

They are starting the line at 10:00pm. It's like Black Friday now for Madden.

What?! You mean you have to wait a few hours for the store to open to get it? That's the last straw, if I were you.

Yep...that's the case with my Gamestop...i asked last month when i purchased NCAA if they were having a midnight release this year and the sales guy defiantly said no cause madden isn't in high demand this year

Im just happy that the season ticket doesn't end tell 6am EST tuesday... that going to save me the time sitting in line midnight tonight. I can just go pick it up in the morning from gamestop when I wake up. Im trading in my NCAA 12 after playing madden i have no love for it anymore. Also im going to trade in some old games to drop that price for the game

Yeah, normally I'd go pick it up at Walmart or something at midnight, but at this point I've gotten my fix and already gone back to NCAA to finish my season and pursue my first HC job after serving as an OC for 5 seasons. Looking forward to more Madden later in the week but Season Pass allows me to order from places like Amazon and not worry about waiting for shipping and whatnot.

Thought mine was gonna cancel because of the hurricane, but not a chance. Called me this morning and wanted me to line up at 10:00 PM. No way lol. Just gonna leave my house at 11:55 and wait for the line to die down.

Why don't you just go to Wal-Mart at midnight?

Did the same thing lol. I learned my lesson.

Re: My Gamestop Cancelled Midnight Release

For me, I get off work right around midnight, so I'll go to Gamestop and see if they're open and possibly playing the game. If not it's nothing to cry over, because Wal-Mart is open and there's one directly across the street from gamestop in my town.
