Does anyone know what time they are going to Launch the game on steam? I am guessing midnight but would it be LA or New York...

That countdown clock can't be correct. If it is, then I'm not sleeping tonight, because the game will be released at 9 Mountain. YESSSS.

I don't have classes all week. This may be the first time in the history of the universe that the education gods and the gaming gods were in agreement.

I dont think I'll be able to play this until Wednesday. I'm too busy tomorrow to stay up past 1am and I have a test on Wednesday. poop

I guess it's kind of good since if it released at 12am here, I'd be tempted to stay up to try it out, at which point I'd probably get addicted and stay up till 5am which would be bad news bears for tomorrow.
