Then I came to my senses after perusing the hype again. Now I'm going to just wait and not even pick one up in person. I hate that tactic of create more demand than available units. That, plus not being able to get a consistent answer as to store opening times or availability from seemingly clueless and unenthusiastic sales people. They're taking advantage of people's excitement. I'll bet there's not more than 1 or 2 decent games at launch time. Instead, I'm going to pay tribute to my excitement in 1999 with the launch of Dreamcast and break out HydroThunder and Sonic Adventure. I was going to go at 7am and wait in line.
