The Weekend Debate: The Minute-To-Midnight Feeling

I lose count of the times I’ve watched midnight news reports from the comfort of my duvet, slurping cocoa from my Kidderminster Harriers 1994 F.A. Cup run mug, watched those hardy gamers camping on a cold street outside the latest hardware launch and wondered: why do they bother?

Whether it’s getting their hands on a new console, playing a hit game or simply commenting on a blog post, there are lots of people dying to be first. Today’s debate topic is:

Do you like to be among the first people to play the latest game or console and, if so, why? We’d love to hear any anecdotes you have of midnight openings or madcap ‘day one’ adventures.

This week I have 15 Voucher Codes for the brilliant Limbo to give away. Speak your brains in the comments and our independent judge (She’s called Katie) will pick her faves first thing on Monday morning. At that point, I’ll join in the discussion and let you know if you’ve been successful. The codes will be sent via PM on the official PlayStation Forums.

Good luck, and to that inevitable person who responds to this with “FIRST!!!”, you’re a true innovator and we’re all extremely proud of you.
