Find out if they have the kiosk there playing the game, and spend an hour scouting for when you get home?
What Gamestop does for midnight releases is create a queue & charge people for the game beforehand (or so they did with GOW3; that was my last midnight release). Afterwards, you stand in line. They do this because at 12:01 when they start releasing the game & letting people in one-by-one, they don't want people showing up then & there try and get it as well. They want people to come in with their receipt, hand them the game & get them out. That way, they aren't there are all night at 12:01am dealing with people to see if they have pre-orders or not, or dealing with people who may have issues paying and holding up the line. Doing this beforehand gets them out of the way & makes the transactions easier.I got a text yesterday saying that I can pick up my game at 12:01 Tuesday, but I have to be at Gamestop at 11pm tonight to finalize my purchase! What does that mean?

Just a quick description of it my last experience, though I did read you were picking it up tomorrow morning instead.
Back to the topic, I can't wait to pick it up tonight. My boss has given me tomorrow off, so I'll be playing into the wee hours for sure. MoH doesn't seem to be picking up a lot of hype like COD would & FH unfortunately isn't either, so I don't expect there to be a long line.
Unlucky man, now you know what its like to live in Europe, getting games 3 days later than everyone else.
I hate you all

I got my LCE!
They were about to hand me a normal copy of the game, until I brought up that I pre-ordered the LCE, so I got a little worried at first. But after a few minutes, they gave it to me.
They also told me the code for the Mercedes SLS AMG would be sent to my e-mail, instead of on a receipt like I originally thought.
