Everyone who pre-ordered Portal 2 at GameStop on the forums got a call from GameStop announcing a launch party for it. Apparently, I didn't get a call because mine is the only one having a Mortal Kombat release party. I mean seriously, that game has one loving commercial while Portal 2 is everylovingwhere. They're the one place that isn't having a launch party for it.
But they said we can still go and pick it up at midnight... But I think it'll be weird as forget picking up a puzzle game around a bunch of bloodthirsty starfishs...
