Damn You Hurricane Ida!

In case you don't know, Hurricane Idea is coming directly towards where I live(Pensacoia, FL).  It's expected landfall time?  In the middle of the night between tomorrow and Tuesday.  Everyone who hasn't lived under a rock knows what is going on at that time.  You guessed it, Modern Warfare 2's midnight release.  Hopefully the hurricane stalls, slows down or weakens significantly so that I at least can drive the few blocks to the mall and pick up my copy.
 
Why must you curse me so, Mother Nature?  Do you know what this week means?

I hope you can pick it up. No idea how you'll survive the hurricane without night vision goggles.

Having lived there before, I would recommend going to Kooter Joes because I dont think that place could withstand a hurricane again. I would cherish that over a  couple hours without COD, but thats just me*fond memories*

That sucks man.  I remember when I picked up Guitar Hero World Tour (I think) it was raining super hard out but, it's nothing compared to a hurricane.

I was going to say the same thing. I've been getting a pop up about it every five seconds during football tonight, but I live by Orlando, so I shouldn't loose power... hopefully...

Part of US1's area lost power today and I live in it, so maybe it was preparing us for Ida.

At least you will have some handy night vision goggles in case things get rough on the way home.

@Wolverine: I already have it pre-ordered at the Gamestop in the mall and have a deposit down.  Actually, it's still probably better to pick it up at midnight because the hurricane isn't going to "land" until Tuesday morning, which would more than like stall any package delivering.

You should get those NVG asap. Maybe when you get them and when the hurricane wrecks shit up like hurricane Katrina (unlikely) and the soldiers start coming in, you can say "I haz NVG!" and maybe they can let you on their roflchoppa saving people!

Assuming that the hurricane also needs to purchase MW2, just hope it goes to a different gamestop from you.

If you're wearing those goggles watch for your depth perception, the hurricane may be closer than it appears.

Well campus closed down a 1:00pm today and all of tomorrow, which means I don't come in until Thursday(Wed. is Veterans' Day).  I am going to go over to the Gamestop a little later today to see if they are still doing the midnight launch party.

Good news!  My Gamestop is still holding their midnight launch party.  They will open their doors at 10pm, but I will probably get there earlier than that.
 
I saw the Hardened and Prestige Edition boxes in person in their back room earlier today.  It was magical seeing them.  Reminded me of seeing the Halo 3Legendary Edition boxes for the first time.  ^__^

What would Soap or Captain Price do? They would charge out into that storm and kill some ultranationalists, or at least go out in that storm and drive to the mall. Just make sure you put the extreme conditioning perk on so you can run quickly through all the wind and rain.
