    Hi Folks,

    Sorry if i missed this earlier. Was hoping we could generate a list of midnight openings for modern warfare 2. Add below if you have any info.

    Thanks

    List

    Gamestop - Sligo

    The problem with this is the game requires Steam, thus the game must be released on Steam first before you can unlock it as far as I am aware . . . so any midnight release here might be too early. I suspect it will be unlocked midnight Seattle time where Valve Software are, which would be near morning in Ireland.

    I will try and find out for sure though.

    yeah but nobody will go to it if you are going to be there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,544 ✭✭✭Hogzy


    Just to let everyone know, iv gone to tesco in the past for all major releases gta iv etc and they've always had the game available at midnight! Never even pre booked or anything and theres never a que cos people are too caught up with a real game shop to consider it!

    They usually have them alot cheaper too, i got GTA IV on release night for €45


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,174 ✭✭✭D


    Just saw the opening mission to MW2 on live leak, very interesting PC brigade are going to have a field day.

    I was asking around as to whether Irish players will be able to unlock the game on Steam at midnight our local time . . . the few at Valve I asked did not really know and indicated it might be down to Activision . . .

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,801 ✭✭✭✭Exclamation Marc


    As far as I know HMV in Dundrum are open at midnight. I was in Gamestop and they said that they're price will depend on HMV's as HMV will be undercutting all the major game retailers.
