Love it or loathe it, the launch of Modern Warfare 2 is already one of the largest game launches ever. Just from a random skimming of forum posts around the Net many retailers had hundreds of people eagerly awaiting the game's release.
One such location in PA had 700 people waiting in line, reports one GameStop employee. Of those 700, 475 were picking up the Xbox 360 version of the game, 200 were there for the PlayStation 3, and the rest were there for the Wii (MW Reflex) and PC. Roughly 40 of those 700 sales were for the $150 (USD) Prestige Edition of the game.
Police had to be called in to control the line. People came dressed up in full camo gear with Airsoft rifles, and freebies were distributed. Yours truly was not at any midnight launch, but perhaps you were.
For those of you who attended a midnight launch, what was the turnout like at your location?

(Meaning your where getting copy of whatever your preorder) there where alot ppl getting PC from what i seen, more xbox 360 and PS3 as you know was going to happen. i pick up both PC and Xbox 360 for about 70 dollars Overall. after trading in 2 games i dont even realy play on 360 (my gf does, but doesnt play it anymore) It was great exp. at gamestop launch party. Well worth the Wait to get this game on PC and 360.
