I'm going to be going by Northlands later tonight to see...

Good for them. What does anyone care if people want to waste there time camping out for something.
All of us waste tons of time on stupid crap all the time.
If these "geeks" enjoy getting together and getting excited for this game then good for them.

LOL I cant sleep (no its not from Halo lol)...checked my xbox msgs. And there is 49 people on my friends list online right now 1AM on a tues morning playing Halo LOL. And these are mostly adults. I have never seen that many people on my list online at once.
Ill pick up my copy tommorow after work but i probably wont bother playing it till whenever I feel like it (or should i say "some what" feel like it). Eh Ill just let it sit there for now all lonely.

LMAO should have seen time square - hundreds of nerds riotting outside of the best buy all chanting Halo 3 halo 3  thats where they had that dude outside on crutches 
According to the nerds interviews on your city tonight, camping outside and getting your copy first is all about bragging rights. So they can walk by everyone else in line on their way out and stick their tongues out Ooooooooooook then, uhhh the only thing you can brag about is how much of a loser you are to spend your entire day waiting

I don't think the geekiest geek would ever get the choice unless he gets picked for a certain CW reality show.

Northlands BB had a few hundred at midnight,
Northlands FS had a few hundred at midnight,
Some store in Northland must have been selling them too, there was a hundred or so lined up outside one of the main entrances to the mall.
I got a copy after lunch from the HMV downtown like someone above suggested - there was no shortages - and wow was HMV ever busy, I didn't know people still bought CD's.

Guy in the office got one and even brought in his 360.. but our projector doesn't take component, and my VGA cable is at home! So we're sitting here looking at it.. so close, yet so far away.
