Going at midnight for a game is one thing but for a movie is 100x worse. Seriously, are they such sleep deprived nightowls that they need the movie that second? Do these people not work?

I got the game. OH YEAH!! I was an ass getting it but I got it so I am happy. My friend got there at like 11:20, and I got there at 11:52, and I texted him to see if he was there, he was at the front playing the game so I went to talk to him, then when he finished they opened the doors and I was the 8th person in (they allowed 10 at a time). When I left there were over a 100 people there, and I cut about 60 of them.

I also got the Kane bonus offer since I pre-ordered it earlier today. Awesome day. Now to finish my reading for school and then 3.5 hours of NHL 10.

Well I live right behind 130th so I took a drive over, they were closed but there was a sign saying they open early, didn't say tome though, also they have a promotion when you 3 games with value of at least $3 you get additional $3 per game, 5 games is $4 and 10 is $5.

FYI: Bouwmeester effing owns. So does Olli. 3-2 right now against Edmonton. Bouwmeester hip-checked Hemskey 12 seconds into the game and injured him. I love this right now.

A real hardcore hockey fan (like me), wouldnt be already playing full games yet but taking time tinkering with the settings. I know for me, every year I spend about 2-3 weeks just playing with the settings so i can get it to play at its max sim feel and then i finally start my dynasty. Most people who play out of the box really dont know much about the sport and just want the arcadish end to end, rock'em sock'em hockey. Not me. I know a lot of diehard fans of the sport too and theyre the same way.

Yo Misskat, I'm real happy for you, and I'm gonna let you finish, but Beyonce is a better sports fan then you.

I'd call myself a pretty hardcore hockey fan who doesnt want an arcadish game. But I just dont have time to sit and piss around with settings for a few weeks before playing a game. I play the game and change the settings when I feel they need to be.
