I was gonna take a pic on my cellphone, i went to walmart at 1pm est. and ther was a line of 30 people. Apparently some of them had gotten there at 6-7am in the morning, instead of going to work they just went to walmart with a lawn chair in hand and waited by the tv section(the door to the stock room is there) funny thing is I only saw like 2 or 3 nerdy guys, the rest were older men and women(parents im assuming).

ya, this specific walmart is in a rough area too, and you just know they are gonna let people keep joining that line and not mention to them how man they units they have.

someone should do a driveby "HARRY POTTER SUCKS!" (or something) and see how many people think they're in the wrong line.

The day I wait in a line for one of my future kids for something stupid like that is the day they'll find my body hanging from a noose in the basemenet

When do they start selling them? Midnite?

To be honest, its easy to get caught up in the hype. I'm not much of a gamer anymore but last spring I camped out for the PSP release (much smaller than x360 imho) and bought two PSPs and a crapload of games to flip on eBay.

I was thinking of doing the same for the Xbox360 (ebay them) but I don't really have the time nor the desire to camp out and hunt them down. I'll probably get one for myself post-grad, when I'll have a TV to use it with too!

I called my Walmart and the electronics department "doesn't know" if there is a line :confused:

Heading over in a couple hours to try my luck...
