BTW I pre-order the special edition but might just get the reg version instead. Any interested in buying a special edition? At cost of course.

I am intrested if you decide to sell.......

This site says for Canada only FS and Game Stop (is there even gamespot in LML?)

I would just call BB and find out.

you won't get raped if you practice. I still play SC1 just to prepare myself for SC2. I was consistently in the top 50 in ladder rankings on bnet but that was awhile back since now i focus on WoW and TF2. Its all about multi-tasking baby :thumbsup:

Only Best Buy in BC that is doing midnight launch is the Cambie St. location.

Get there early because there WILL be a lineup. They also have the best freebie (Sidewinder X3 mouse) out of all the stores doing the midnight launches.

Top 50 Battle net West. I also played korean private servers where the Gosu Korean players all played. I played SC1 since the day it came out and when you have no life and play computer games all day then its easy to be really good.

You can line up @ Cambie and get your game and just refund the pre-order @ the metro location.

All Future Shops (except Quebec I believe) are doing midnight launches so that's another option for ya.

ziggyx 07-23-2010 02:21 PM

^ Thanks I'll do that. :D unless there is still an insane line up after they've been open for awhile... lol. I don't plan on getting anything but just the game

I know as of today, EB Games @ Metro was still taking pre-orders and guaranteed that everybody on the pre-order list will get their copy during midnight launch because they haven't reached the pre-order cut off number yet.

Cambie BBY & Metrotown FS are two of their busiest locations in the GVR so I expect them to be getting just as much stock (if not more)

SpuGen 07-23-2010 05:10 PM

I pre-ordered at the Pacific Center EB Games.
I Figured less people would buy it there, so there was a bigger guarantee for me... then after I walked out, I realized I just bought it in one the the busiest malls in Vancouver.

Anybody know if EB will be doing midnight launches?

Cnguyen 07-23-2010 05:32 PM

^^ here's the PDF for EB midnight launch locations:http://www.gamestop.ca/gs/specialty/...ght_27july.pdf

**WARNING** SPOILER ALERT


illicitstylz 07-23-2010 06:34 PM

practicing against AI against very hard and wow the units are stronger than yours so you basically have to do harass/cheese to win.

Graeme S 07-23-2010 08:01 PM

Awesome. Midnight launch at PC EB. See you there, SpuGen?

Will be lining up at Cambie BB and returning my delivered order the day it arrives. I want that mouse. :D

Alby 07-24-2010 04:37 PM

this is the first time i've ever pre-ordered a game. so if i have done it through with FS, do i just line up to pick up my copy or is it delivered or i can just walk into any FS location to pick my copy up?

Meowjin 07-25-2010 04:25 AM

im thinking of bringing my 26 inch asus and ps3 for monday just so I can play ssf4 while waiting in line. I'm goign to go scout it tomorrow and see if there is a place i can plug in while I sit in line :o

no_clue 07-25-2010 09:53 AM
