    Default Someone clarify.

    Some buddies from work preordred Halo 2 from one EBGames around here. I happened to preordered it from the other. I changed my preorder to the one they are going to so I can ride with them at midnight. But the leader of the bunch is going TUESDAY at midnight...

    I'm almost 99.9% sure that its monday-tuesday when its on sale at midnight, right?
    He's going tuesday-wednesday. Someone tell me (Variation you work at EB ) what day it is, for clarification?

    Monday into Tuesday Midnight
    or
    Tuesday into Wednesday at Midnight

    I think he's mistaken because most sites say "Ships 11/9/04" and he thinks it'll be in stores the following day... like most games usually are.

    what they said.

    my gamestop is closing at 7, then re-opening at 10 to get ready for the Midnight action. They think it's gonna be busy but it's a school/work night for alot of people so I can't see a line developing.

    Tuesday at 12:01AM (midnight) is when it's sellable. he has is days mixxed up or meant monday just AFTER midnight.

    I know that some stores will break the street date, but they will get in huge crap

    Monday-Tuesday, not Tues-Wed.

    my Blockbuster reccomended coming and getting in line at 9pm...but i don't see a line getting that big..maybe so...but i'm thinking no.

    and if it says "Tuesday Nov. 9th!" they mean 12am.
    ...HALO 2.

    Went and changed my preorders. Got a free Halo 2 sticker too. BONUS!

    The guy thought it was Tue. - Wed. but he checked and it is Monday into Tuesday.
    Seeing as how it'll be on a tuesday I won't have to call off work (I don't work tuesdays), but I'll have to be "sick" for school.

    I am curious as to how many people will be "sick" on this day. I know quite a few that will be for our school alone.

    I don't think I'm going to be able to go at midnight because all the people I could get rides from don't have an Xbox, so won't need to go get Halo 2. I think I'm going to have to get my Mom to go to EB when it opens on the 9th. I might possibly be able to get my friend's mom to pick me up a copy if my friend can convince her to go for him at midnight. It sucks not having a license

    the best day of playing will be 11/10. After most people go back to work/school, only the hardcore will be left.

    same here, i would have to be really lucky to go at midnight. and my mom prolly wouldnt go during the day she would be like "but i dont know wut to ask them" and im like just say HALO 2 and they will know exactly wut ur talkin about. ill prolly have to wait until after school that day. it does suck not having a liscense, and not being old enough

    The sad thing is, I'll pick up Halo 2 at Midnight and will probably play for a short amount of time...but, as soon as I get through my longest workday of my life, I'll get off and play. Fortunately, Veteran's Day weekend follows...it's going to be HUGE!

    Yea, it was nice of Bungie to release it right around then, more days to sit around doing nothing but playing Halo
