EB Games Halo 3: ODST Launch Party Comments

Cool. I wana go
Ahhhh! I really really really wanna go but on Tuesday morning, I've got weights in the morning and if I skip another one I'll get kicked out.

FML.

EDIT: I might go just for the freebies and a chance to sit in a warthog get the game on the tuesday instead of waiting for hours.
so tempting, but not worth the trip from Newcastle, i never really liked halo but this kinda interested me
LOL!

No thanks.
Penrith hmm... Do I want to drive a full 15 minutes? Lol.

I might go if I find someone to go, I ain't catching a train there by myself at night, trouble always seems to find me at Penrith after dark..
I'm still contemplating whether to go to my town's own midnight rlease or not. =/

Lol yeah, Penrith @ night AND at Westfield. My advice, anyone catching train be careful u might get jumped lol.
 
It sure sounded great at Penrith, up here though in tamworth they also had some sort of launch party (mind you it was crap). They didn't give any freebies, and all they let you do really was get your preorder and that was it. Some lame **** launch party.
I will never again be suckered.
