IIRC, they did it with the first Mass Effect as well.

Yep they sure did. I got it about a week early. I'll just wait for my order from Amazon this time.

I was pissed.

They closed like 99% of the Kmarts here in my town. I think the only one left is in a shitty part of town. I don't want to have to put on my kevlar just to get the game a few days early.

The K-Mart by me is in an okay part of town, but the store itself is shitty

I don't remember the last time I bought something at K-Mart other than a soda.

Re: KMart breaks street date for MassEffect2

I went to the Kmart near me and they didn't have it out. I yelled at the kid for a while, and even showed the photo in the OP, but no dice.

Now all Mass Effect 2 needs is to be banned in Wal-Mart because of the sex and we are good to go!!!

LOL. Kileen? WTF? I guess it's probably near Fort Hood. I don't generally ever drive north (Dallas is up there, ew) so the only other one I was aware of was in Portland near Corpus Christi.

I don't understand their Texas strategy. They pulled out of all the big cities and now have a sprinkling of K-marts in the tiniest towns like 250 miles from each other. They're weird.

Then again, my parents live down in Key Largo and Kmart is the ONLY department store in town... so they live by it. Kileen is right smack next to the largest military installation on the planet however, I'm sure they do well there.

Make sure you leave enough time to stretch.

Re: KMart breaks street date for MassEffect2

I do a low-impact gymnastics that doesn't require much activity. Truth be told, I just like wearing the leotards.

Do you wear the leotards while driving your van of rape?
