Its madness out there tonight

just popped to Asda to see if I could pick up a copy of GTA 4 as my preorder didnt turn up today and waiting till tomorrow afternoon just isnt good enough. Easily more than 100 people there with more turning up every second, even the local blockbuster which nobody ever seems to go to had a massive queue outside. Sod that, geeks dont queue!

Swung by the shop on my way to work - no queues, and stacks of GTAIV for both consoles. Think I'll chuck the kids to bed early today!

Yeah, that does make you a nerd. Not that there is anything wrong with that of course.

The question is, whose car? Did you jack it or did you use your own?

Was in work pretty much all day. Didn't leave till like 18:10, didn't eat till around 19:00. Left shortly after and tried ASDA, Tesco's, and PC World - none of which had it.

Out of desperation, I tried Toys 'R' Us. One of the final two in stock \o/
The guy who got the disc was saying about how lucky I was to find it.

It wasn't technically luck though if you were trying everywhere
