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  | |

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.

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

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)

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?
