In my area i have almost every store around me. im still debating if i should go to best buy, wall mart, or target to get it. i really wanna stick to my usual but im worried..usually i go to toys r us. I did for guitar hero 2 the day it came out in the morning and i got there a half hour before and i was the first one to get it and as i was leaving i saw one other guy go in to get one. But the problem is that the guy had only 2 boxes of the game with about 6 in each box. So im worried i may not get one. Any suggestions

If you plan on going in the morning, don't go to a store that had a midnight launch beforehand. In which case go to any store that didn't have one an hour before hand. If you want to go to a midnight launch at Best Buy or Walmart thats participating go there 2-4 hours early to be safe.

yea i agree. but the thing is none of the best buys near by are having a mightnight launch. and like i said the toys r us was really reliable last time but i dont know b/c i dont know how much they are getting in

i'd go to the one that's closest. Best Buy and Wal-mart should have enough to ensure that you'll get one.

I'm having the same problem but I think im going to Walmart and/or Target at 8 if neither of them have it Best Buy opens at 10. If that doesn't work i'm screwed.

They told me that they open at 10 and they told me they are getting ALOTT of them in because of such high demand and i asked if i got there at 9 would i be pretty much garenteed a copy and she said for sure..IM HAPPPYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!1

most Best Buys are doing a midnight release...(late monday night)

I don't know if they'll be any in the morning.

I reported earlier that I spied a massive stash (By the looks +50) of Xbox Bundles in the back storage are of my Best Buy, not only that it isn't doing a midnight launch, so I should be fine picking one up in the morning.

I don't think that will be necessary but then again, you can never be too safe.

I have a Best Buy 5 minutes walking distance from my office. Factor in 7-11 coffee, mana of the gods, across the street, and I'm hoping 9am will be fine for the waiting period.
