It’s midnight …. and the game won’t load because all the dcryption servers are maxed out.

There were like 300 people at the midnight release of the game here in CT. The last wow expansion only had about a quarter of the crowd when I went there for that midnight release. Granted this game is cross platform, but damn! I know there were many retailers selling this game on the 10th. My brother went to a walmart release and so many people showed up he had to wait till the morning and grab his from best buy when they opened.

It’s amazing how the street dates for this game have been broken globally. Gamespot basically said screw it after so many small retailers broke the date and broke it themselves… don’t think there’s ever been a game that has inspired this kind of madness before at release.
