So who's going to pick it up when it comes out tomorrow? I can't wait to play it and see some more badass cinematics.

Since I never leave the house anymore, I didn't reserve it. I doubt I'll be able to buy a copy without a reservation until a little while later.

Are you kidding? The shelves everywhere are going to be FLOODED with copies of this game. It's not like your whole city is going to sell out.

I'll be stopping in Best Buy on my lunch break tomorrow and picking it up.

Aye, when I worked at EB Gameworld we made sure that we had plenty of copies of Warcraft III when it came out. Honestly, there wasn't even a need to preorder them cuz we had so many copies in the store.

I'd like to get it very soon, but first I desperately need to upgrade my computer so it'll run the original more smoothly.

I can't wait to command the PANDAREN. :hic

I dunno. Gamestop was sold out of WC3 unless you had a reservation. I guess I'll see.

They were selling some copies of it at the GameStop near me. They don't even care if they get in trouble or not, they are greedy fuckers anyway.

I was going to pick it up, but my computer isn't going to be able to play it.

I have just discovered that I will probably be able to get a copy of it tomorrow because many stores don't care about holidays anymore!

There's a slim chance I'll get it tonight, but I have class shortly after work and by the time I'm done with that and go home to change, the stores will probably be closed.

Just got home with it (Tiny box version. Ugh).

Best Buy's offering a $10 certificate via mail-in, and a free figure. Get it there, if you don't mind tiny boxes.

Edit: Just watched the gameplay preview for World of Warcraft. So sexy.

Yes, it's a seperate cd key. And drumaster, you totally got shafted. Best Buy and Circuit City had much better deals.

What did circuit city have?

I did the bestbuy $10 thingy.

EB had NO DEALS whatsoever on it, which really surprised me. They almost always have deals on big releases like that.

Circuit City had a $10 gift card, but you get it instantly. Best Buy's $10 gift card is a mail-in, but they also had free action figures (which disappeared quickly).

I've had Frozen Throne for over a week now, but I do intend on buying it this week.

Ah ok, glad I went to best buy then, cuz I already had a free gift card and I didn't really feel like spending a lot on the expansion set.

Anyway, I only had time to play a little bit of the first board last night but it's already great. And that first cinematic movie was NICE! I couldn't believe the ocean water animation and all the other scenery. I can't wait to see more of it.

Starcraft Ghost looked very uninteresting. And World of Warcraft... well I'm just not interested in those kind of games, but I'm sure it's gonna be great for people who are. The only thing from that game that I want to see is the cinematics.

I'm not really fond of those MMORPGs or whatever they're called, but I may give WoW a glance at. Seems interesting that you may be able to fly around, not to mention all-out wars. And Ghost looks like it'll be worth at least a rental.

I'm up to the 4th Elf mission. The story so far has been a little bland, to be honest. I mean, everything's great, and the introduction of the new race is nice (but I already saw the "surprise" coming after the first mission). It all just feels like it's not advancing as much as the base game did. Hopefully it'll pick up as I play further.

But I really am liking it. Can't wait to play against you guys on B.Net. You can select your icon now from a list of those you unlock. I'm still hoping the Lost Vikings one is hidden away somewhere.

I am a few missions into the third campaign, the Undead, and I have also completed the bonus campaign. Overall, to me, it has been a very exciting story so far.
