How long would you stand in line for a new console on launch day?

I also never bought a system on launch day. Usually not until its been out for about half a year. But it is fun waiting outside in the cold with friends ...getting a system at the end of the wait is just a bonus.

I'd wait for a matter of hours. Anything more becomes logistically problematic. I think it makes you appreciate obtaining the console that much more if you do brave the lines for it.

Nothing more than a few hours.

I definitely wouldn't want to see another Halo 2 at my mall. Like, a million in line for preorders, but millions of copies over at Future Shop just sitting there, and merchandise for the first 1000 who buy it!

I even went over to the line at EB and started talking loudly about how ridiculous this situation was, but nobody budged.

People are such sheep.
