Oh yes. As a member of a local gaming charity group, I carry tremendous influence with the local gaming community! By which, of course, I mean that maybe three people could pick me out of a lineup because they paid money to see me get tazed while playing Superman 64.
I have no idea why the owner of this GameStop wants us to come to his store for midnight launches, but I'm not going to stop him from letting me play video games before they come out.
