I was disappoined in the launch held at our local game stop. It was boring we waited in line for almst 2 hours..and it was a short short line. Nothing happened...When game stopped called to remind me to be there they made it sound like there was going to be a "party"..and nothing..just boring...I won't go to the next launch I will order when the next expansion arrives to make sure I have one but I will pick it up at my own leisure. Good thing??!!! I love the game and was in within minutes to go exploring!!!.. I am still exploring and loving it!!

Yeah I went to a midnight release. Lol the GameStop said they'd process us out before midnight so that when the time came, they could just hand us a game and we be on our merry way. The thing is that there was WAY more people than at the BC midnight release and I don't think they were prepared for it. So I waited from like 10:30 and got out at 12:15(approximately). I was disappointed that nobody dressed up for the occasion though.

last time (BC) i had to wait for almost 2 weeks before i got into outlands simply because i couldn't get a box...

this time i wasn't going to let it happen, and i decided i'm going for a Collectors Edition.

the day WotLK was announced i pre-ordered it and when the day arrived, i went to the midnight sale in Tel Aviv, Israel.

was actually pretty cool and i got to meet some nice guys...

My girlfriend didn't quite have the same fun standing there for an hour and a half as she doesn't play (god knows i've tried. ;) ), and i did have to wake up a few hours later for work, but all in all, was a nice experience and if all goes well, i'll be there again next year. :)
