So you're saying the real RPG's are better than everything? I would argue that pussy > Real RPG's.. along with several other things.

Game wise.

Though real good role playing during sex is better than all other sex.

What I hate is enthusiasm. I want everybody to be emotionally dead like me. I wouldn't stand in line 5 minutes for anything. I am just too cool. But I do love the fact that fools do stand in line because it makes me feel so much better about who I am. I can look at their dedication to a game and laugh, and when I die, millions will come to morn at my grave. That how cool I am.

If you find yourself camping out overnight for a video game it may be time to overhaul your decision making process. :)

Me and some friends were high on mushrooms when waiting for the release of burning crusade. It was intense. :thumbsup:

I am sorry, but I know of no way to make the :) that was in my original post any bigger so that when those wound as tight as you flash white with rage, they are still able to see it and understand that I was just poking a little fun and wasn't serious.

Does making fun of people you don't know make you feel better about your shitty excuse for a life?

I mean, I hate WoW and people who play it, but you are just sad.

Uhhh...calm down. Are you telling me you've never made fun of anyone extremely dedicated to a single thing, especially something where there is no physical product of their time spent? If so, I guess you're a better person than all of us. Half of the people there probably are cracking jokes about how nerdy they are while waiting.

Do they not offer a digital download version now? I don't see the point of going out to the store if you have a high speed internet connection.

See last post for clarification. Just ranting how I've learned to enjoy IRL more since IRL is a stable final build and I can count on things for more than a week :D

I don't have to wake up with a 106" screen being only 31" now because it was unfair to someone who had two 52" screens*eye roll wank wank*

*does the WoW free and staying that way for more than year dance*

But you do have to put up with your $350k house now being worth $225k.

Ever heard of PRE-ORDER ?

Typically when you pre-order something they don't absolutely guarantee that it will be there on release day and even if it is, it's not until the mail/UPS driver comes. If you're going hard core, you may as well go all the way.

How is this any different than waiting in line to see a movie at 12:01am?
Or waiting in line to buy Halo?
Or waiting in line to buy tickets to an event you want to see? Or just waiting in line to get INTO an event you want to see?
Or waiting in line for Black Friday deals?

It's all the same damn thing... no matter how much we try to poke fun. We all have our vices where we too would stand in line to get a piece of the action...and there are equally others who call us "losers without a life" because they just don't understand our passion.

Hell - I bet those people waiting in lines are 10x happier than the rest of us who bitch about them.... and think they have no life because they like a video game.

I too am glad I don't play WoW [been Wow Free for nearly 3 years now!] - but I can definitely understand why they are standing in line.... to get a game...that will make them call in sick tomorrow. :)

Do you know they ship physical copies? FOR FREE

There is a digital download too.. http://us.battle.net/en/info/presale

Seriously, why am I putting up with this? I have a presentation to make tomorrow.. should go back to work..

Uhhh...who are you arguing with? Trident was the first one who brought up a digital download. I'm only advocating that the people at Fry's were the more hard core than the rest of the fans.

His post of your picture wasn't even close to an original slam too. It gets posted in just about every thread you're in and besides, you uploaded it.

Sounds fun... Wait in line overnight, only to have to wait another 24 hours before it's finally finished patching.
