Gran Turismo 5 Midnight Launch Scratched From GameStop

If you were thinking about heading down to your favorite games retailer to get lowballed on your trade-ins to pick up Gran Turismo 5, you should make other plans.  The retailer scratched the midnight release for the game.

At this time it is unknown why there is no midnight release for one of the most anticipated games of all time.  The internet has speculations ranging from “Microsoft paying Gamestop to not have one” all the way down to ” The surprise launch date forced Gamestop to scratch”.

Either way, I will be making my way down to ye grand ole Walmart.  Breathing mask..check  Mace..check  Taser…check..  Let’s do this!
