Post 8

Post 9

Yeah, most stores are doing a pre release thing. Play guitar hero, chat, some stores may be showing the footage from the US opening. The games still won't be handed out till midnight though, unless you already have one :D

Post 10

yeah its thursday i had eb ring me on monday and tell me.

Post 11

Don't go there expecting to pick the game up at 10...
If you haven't paid off the game yet it'll be open at 10 to pay it off and then kick everybody out and reopen at midnight to pick up...

Post 12

Already prepaided here so just going to rock up at midnight and hope they don't take too long to get through the line.

Post 13

you know your life is sad when you line up at 10 pm to get a game...

Post 14

I know you would do the same for the 2009 NT Fireman calendar Korny...

I'm not sure you're in a position to talk about the sad lives of others. Most of us have known you for years Korny, and are all too aware of yours.

*off to bed*

Grats to everyone who come down to EB Casuarina tonight.

Enjoy!

Post 18

It's only 3am your time? After getting a new game at midnight? Weak! :)

Post 19

I can tell you right now, the quest "Last Rites" shows that Blizzard has put alot of effort into this game, compared to Burning Crusade. Best thing I've seen in-game so far.

Post 20

Man, I'm almost regretting selling off my WoW account :(

Post 21

Picking up my collectors this morning, JB Hifi didnt do a midnight launch and EB wouldnt let me pre-order collectors that early, wasnt a risk I was willing to take seeing as I have the collectors of vanilla wow and tbc.

Post 22

JB Hifi did do a midnight launch, got my game with no waiting, no pre-order and cheaper too, thumbs up to JB. Apparently EB's line went on for ages, I walked straight in and out lol, felt like another midnight servo run...

Post 23

:(

I got screwed over!

I got called and asked if I wanted to upgrade my preored to a collectors edition, said yes, then there was some sort of second round of calling where they couldnt get me. so apparently I got dropped of the CE list :(

Bastards!

Post 24

sounds like a bullshit response man - probably decided to give your copy to a friend

Post 25

yeh, ah well, I suppose I saved $40 per copy..

Post 26

all collectors editions i have ever bought ive regretted about 2 hours after the purchase. :P

Its this exact bullshit that I wanted to avoid, that's why I went to JB HiFi who let me specifically pre-order the CE before EB Games even acknowledged it existed.

When the original came out, I had a CE pre-ordered at Harvey Norman who kept assuring me that "We definately have enough copies to cover the pre-orders" after I asked them specifically are they sure because I KNEW pre-orders werent being filled. They told me "Yes we have x amount preordered and the same amount in our warehouse just waiting for the release date".

Come release day "Oh sorry, pre-orders didnt fill anywhere so you missed out".

Ended up paying $350 on ebay >.>

Post 28

wow $350 for a computer game and gear you'll look at once? they saw you comin' wrath =)

mind you.. i should talk.. *looks at anime robots on shelf above monitor*

Post 29

350 was one of the cheaper prices for one that hadn't already been activated.

They went for up to $750 at the time.

Post 30

BC sold for $5,000 3 months after release. :)

Post 31

fuuuuuuuuuuck that's just silly

Post 32

i saw a BC collectors edition in a shop in singapore a year after release. was "000 :P

Post 33

lol I still have mine unused, if I call Blizz they should be able to add it to my account yeah?

Post 34

hmm im picking it up tonight from game 20 dollars cheaper

Post 35

LOL wtf, maybe I should have got the collectors edition and held onto it for a while. Oh well, only bad thing about this exp. is the ****in queue for the realms, seriously teh ****.

Post 36

i got into blackrocks 3k queue....went to movies, come back and logged in 15 mins later...

Post 37

130 mins it says for me to get in

Post 38

2.5k que in jubi. Watched 2x movies and almost through a 45 min Episode of True Blood. and still have 300 spots to move up.

Post 39

proudmoore was about 2k queue most of the arvo

Post 40

woo! the area manager has come through! I can go in and get one that been sourced from another location. Once it arrives that is!

:D:D

Post 41

Proudmoore queue is currently GHEY, your position in the line is "Too ****ing far down" estimated wait time "Too ****ing long".

I've been getting my gf to log me in at 4:30 so its logged in about 15mins after I get home.

Post 42

It's very cool. Finally Blizzard have figured out how to make fun quests.

Post 43

Agreed, the work thats gone into WotLK really shows through. The quests and overall game quality is infinitely better than Vanilla and TBC. Also Naxx is too damn easy now.

Post 44

i resubscribed after almost two years :(

Post 45

2x 60 shamans in less than 3.5days game play questing... Now to do BC and WotLK. Fun yards ahead.

Refer A Friend is making leveling to 60 eaisy.

Post 46

Lothar, theres a guy that like, used your Keyclone program and is still leveling I think, 40 shamans and are all like, lvl 70+

Post 47

like, wow?

Post 48

If anyone is in the mood to reroll or is looking for a place to park their Horde toon (when the server transfers open once again), we have a guild going on the Oceanic server Jubei'Thos the website is http://www.ascendancywow.net

It needs a little work but we're all too busy scrambling to 80 to worry about that right now.

Is awesome.
