As in this text message received from Gamestop:

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

This is for a Gamestop in New Mexico, not a very populated place. For Battlefield 3 I arrived at 10pm like it said and the line was out the door.

So arrive at about 6:30-7:30 for this, no ealry or you will be that lonley guy in the front. 8)

If you are thinking you can arrive at 10 or 11 then you are sorrily mistaken.

Also take into account if the store you are getting it from has a lot of cash registers, if there are few will take a good amount longer than if it is Best Buy or Walmart with like 12!

A helpful strategy is if a neighboring store is having a big even, avoid going there and go to the smaller and quieter one across the street, there will be less people.

Time Chart for stores:

Gamestop: 6pm-7pm
Wal-Mart: 7pm-8pm
Best Buy: 6:30-8pm
Other Small shops/Small town: 8pm-9pm

These are just rough estimations, i'm trying to keep you from going at 10pm and being there till 2am, take the xtra time and stay there to get home earlier and be one of the first to enjoy this highly anticipated game release.

Help keep topic alive in this clutter of double XP times. ;D

Thank and +rep if you found this topic helpful!
