Launch Writeups
Wow. So I was going through mail that came to email addresses other than halo@bungie.org, thinking that I'd make a summary of all the news that hadn't gotten posted in the last couple of days before I STARTED posting - but the list is so enormous that I'll never get through it unless I just start. So - I'll do my best to combine like items, but beware the news flood! First up, some release night shenanigans around the country (and the world):
- iRTsuki made a cake for her local Gamestop: Top | Side (thanks, Thorn Harvestar)
- A Random Act of Kindness in Reading, PA - when a teenager dressed up as the Master Chief shows up to buy Halo 3, and it's learned that he doesn't even own a 360, someone buys him one - thanks, VelocityTino
- dogsounds described a lower-key event in the UK - you know you're not in the US when those in the queue are offered eclairs while they wait
- Crispy got himself a pair of tickets to the big London gala - the woman he invited wrote up the experience
- zakguy wrote up his Gamestop's Midnight launch for the magazine he works for
- Dry Ice took some pictures at the Gamestop in Grandville, MI
- Comics Alliance wrote up THEIR local Gamestop event - thanks, singkeo2002
I think we should probably call it a day after those; I'm sure there are HUNDREDS of writeups of local launch things (there were, after all, over 10,000 stores in the US, 1,000 stores in the UK, and uncounted numbers in other countries all open for this event), but we'll say this is representative.
