I came in at 8 and there was a line of 5 people. I found out there were 14 xboxes so I thought it wasnt a big deal, but they only had 2 of the 400 dolla box. So i didnt get that (PISSED) and then had to pay like 200 bucks to get all the accessories (hd cables, headset, hard drive) that I would have gotten otherwise.

Through trading in games I got PGR and Madden. then I bought PD0 and Call of Duty2. Using gamefly (which after spending this cash, it will become my new best friend), I have gotten NBA 2k6 and Condemned.

I think I like NBA, Condemned and PGR the best so far....but they are all pretty good.
One thing I've learned over the years...never listen to the sales guys. If you get their and are fine staying the whole long while, just stay, especially if your first in line. These guys can't predict the future, who will show up to wait when. If it's worth it to you to come at 5pm and wait, forget what the salesman tells you, show up at 5pm and be the first in line and wait.
