Segatron Genesis... call me the wizard.
Okay so it's exactly 1045pm right about now. We're fixing to open at 11:30pm (9/24/07) So Lemme introduce you to the people I work with and the store itself :)

This is my crazy silly boss, James. He's a nut bar, but a lovable nutbar :) He's pretending to be a garden gnome in this shot.

Tyler1.jpg


This is Tyler, my co-worker and best friend, who's as silly and creative as ever.

Mrs.Diana.jpg


This is Mrs. Diana, James Wife, she's a sweetheart who came by to wait until James was over with this launch party. I don't think she was too thrilled to be here today

Here are the three big guns we love to show off, the Left and Right are 42 inch Hitachi Plasma TV in 1080p
The Middle is a projection screen in the back, the screen you see is actually 8 feet by 6 feet in width and height.

Here's Tyler putting up the games nice and in neat order for when the customers come into the door.

However, while me and Tyler were working, James was trying to relax. The poor guy has been at the store since 10am. So he was playing STRANGLEHOLD on the big screen, while his wife was checking her cellphone.

And this is James whenever he does a victory dance during finishing the "Big Resturant Level" in Stranglehold :) Silly isn't he?
 
So you're probably wondering, "how many copies of Halo did we have?" Well we're gonna do this BLING BLING style, by showing off the merchandise...

So Tyler informs me, it's time to check out the time, gasp! It's 11:20pm!

Before we go, we like to remind all customers, "No Food or Drinks in the building please" we are QUITE serious about this :)

Gunner2.jpg


So Me and Master Chief Tyler, Race to see the activity at the front gate of the...MALL...

FrontDoor.jpg


Lucky, I had my sniper to zoom in at the gate...my god, it was more horrid than DAWN of the Dead...if you were there...you'd see them standing there in hordes!

THEYCAME.jpg


THEY CAME!! All 37 of them!! it was horrible!

Gunner3.jpg


As the gates opened, we ran back for shelter to the store asap!
 
Consumer.jpg


This customer wanted me to take his ticket early so he could leave....I just pointed that Tyler had a gun...and he quickly backed off :)

Tim1.jpg


Well all I gotta say, it went by in a blur, it was the fastest release I've dealt with by far, even quicker than what I dealt with on the likes of Madden games....

All and all, it was a freakin' blast :) In the end, all that really matters is you got your game and you're happy :)

Game on Spartans!
 
Oh and in case you're wondering...this is how many copies we have leftover...

Leftovers.jpg


Soooo many regular and Collector's edition..it's sad lol (there's at least 3 copies behind each one you see)

We had tickets too but they were worthless cuz nobody was in line, they were all set up around the game they had going. I just sat outside til 11:45 then got in line and it still only took 15 mins to wait

To have it, is sweet, but it's really just for looks. If you want to play the game I wouldn't recommend it.

If you'd pay $130 for a Halo game, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't need the book.

Other than that, this is why I can't wait to work at a game place. Crappy place to actually work, but it's fun as hell to hang out with everyone.
