there were like 8 locations in select metro areas which was really stupid. no point in actually doing it unless you lived within a 10 minute walk from the best buy's.Accj21 said:
I know! I don't live even 200 miles from any of those and I live in the US! (At least I don't think so)MattC said:
"No point?" I drove for an hour at 6 in the morning for it! Some people started camping out the afternoon before!MattC said:
if you live near san francisco, los angeles, minneapolis, seattle, chicago, miami, new york or dallas, you were close to a location. otherwise, you were probably too far.Bowser498 said:
it's stupid because they had 30 or so locations when they did this in the 1990s.
an hour is nothing. most people are 10 hours away from the location.Accj21 said:
I live a few hours from Seattle, but from what I read on the sign-ups online it's for US RESIDENTS ONLY.MattC said:
Meaning I coulda traveled the boarder if I wanted to try but then problems would start to come because I live up here.
Yes I'm still goina complain about that.

Ooh, that's tough. Sorry to hear that.Yoshiman222 said:
The one Best-Buy store in MN is only about 25 minutes away from me but I never bothered to go. 
Why not? It was awesome.Justin said:The one Best-Buy store in MN is only about 25 minutes away from me but I never bothered to go.

No real interest tbh. Sitting in a line for hours again to play a game for 5 minutes does not sound enjoyable to me, even if this time it meant I had a shot of going to E3.
More details announced! They announced the eight players that will be invited! The eight players that won from Best Buy around the United States will be revealed soon.

I knew I had no chance at going to E3, I did it for "real-life XP."Justin said:Accj21 said:Why not? It was awesome.Justin said:The one Best-Buy store in MN is only about 25 minutes away from me but I never bothered to go.

Yes! Arin from Game Grumps and Andre from BlackNerdComedy! Also their faces at the end were hilarious imo.
I'm still going with this regardless.MattC said:
Still annoyed that it's US residents only.
Wanted to try out - I'd have been amazing at it, I hoped.
don't think the competition really mattered, especially when the final 8 are popular speedrunners and two numbnuts who are terrible at video games.
