I walked into gamestop today to grab my preordered copy.
Talked with the manager a bit. Starcraft 2 was not on their list of "games thats expected to sell well". To their prediction, they were right.
Last night's launch had approximately 60 people in line and waiting. This sounds like a fair amount of people for a simple gamestop, but he claims its about how much they get for any decent game.
Modern Warfare 2 rounded over 200 people, with the line going far out of the store and into the parking lot. Halo was not much different.
But what does he know? My entrance to the store was "I'M KOREAN! GUESS WHAT I'M HERE FOR!"
With the same manager saying "Am I supposed to know?"

Mreh, I might get the game today mainly because I loved Starcraft when it was first released.

lol kitaek. That sounds like an awesome entrnace.
I couldn't find the collector's edition anywhere. Maybe either it is all sold-out or stores don't care much about it.
Starcraft 2 isn't very huge if you aren't interested in RTS games, unlike WoW or Call of Duty.

That sounds like an amazing entrance right there. If you actually said that aloud, I would look up to you as an even greater person than you are now.
Meh, I don't plan on buying Starcraft II yet. I think I'll wait for all the expansions to come out and they stuff it inside a Battle Chest. Besides, if I wanted to play it, I have four friends that already pre-ordered the game and have been way more excited for it than I've been. :v
