Midnight launches?

[Dreambiscuit 9,875]

I did it just once, for the release of one of the Playstations (can't remember which now). I was going to buy it and sell it on ebay but it wasn't worth the misery. If I want something for myself I'll just wait a month and pick it up when the hype has died down.

Midnight lunches are an entirely different matter. I'm always up for that.

I don't buy physical copies anymore, not since I was 13. That being said I still do the midnight launch thing, just different. I preorder games digitally and on the night of release I wait until the game becomes playable. Last games I did it with is Sea of Thieves, The Escapists 2, and White Noise 2.

The only midnight release I went to was for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3. I remember GameStop had a van that carried a giant screen and a game projector. People got a chance to play the game before picking it up and it was pretty cool.

Leftover pizza and a random spice from the spice rack

I wanted to attend a midnight launch when I was younger, but I never did because of transportation issues. And today, I just can't be bothered; I'll just buy the thing online and have it mailed to me. If it's in short supply even online and I care enough, maybe I'll write a small program to send me an email when the "buy" button becomes clickable.

Only Halo 5. Maybe I'll see when Halo 6/ Infinite gets released.

Midnight release for Harry Potter Deathly Hallows book at Borders.

I've never been to any of them tbh.

[Lucky Bolt 35,064]

No...never even heard of it.

YES! Better than line-waiting. Oh...my actual reply: never gonna happen!

I've never gone to a midnight launch event and never plan to. In my opinion, no video game or electronic is worth standing in line for hours, even days for.

Closest one I did was for Persona 5. They had an early release actually where you could buy it at 9 at night

I have for movies. A couple of Harry Potter movies and Star Wars 3. And I went to the first showing of the MLP movie. There really aren't many movies I'm excited enough about to bother these days.

I also bot Harry Potter and the Deadly Hallows an hour after it came out, mostly because I was working that night but it was fun to start reading it right away.

I have no idea what this is. But no, I don't.

I don't see the point in going to a store at midnight just to buy a game. Especially if you have school or work in the morning.

I have never been to a midnight launch and never will.

 

I can’t understand why they’re  happening, I can wait a while to buy something if I really want it.

I haven't gone to any midnight launches, and I don't plan to as I actually value getting a good night's sleep.

[Savy 5,079]

Nah, I've never once gone to a midnight launch.

I thought the title said Midnight LUNCH. 

[Pentium100 2,130]

I do not see a reason to do it. It's not like it will "run out" and I won't get it later.

[Fluttershutter 2,491]

Well nothing's open at midnight these days. We've gone back to the 60s or something.
