As an average consumer, I thought it was a terribly planned event. It advertised its opening for 8pm, but they didn't start letting people in until 8:20p and although I was the 20th person in line waiting since 6:15pm, I didn't get in until just before 9:00pm.
Even though they mark your skin with an X during admission, it doesn't mean you can leave and go back in. I tried and their security instantly went into dickhead mode and started shoving me around unprovoked, acting as if was trying to loot some of the art.
What could've been an entirely enjoyable evening was marred by shoddy preparation and abysmal customer service. Who would've ever thought a gamer event would be fraught with the annoyances of trying to get into a night club?
This is far and away the worst Mario Kart in the entire series. Did the midnight launch with two other MK veterans and we all agree that this game is a 5/10 at best. Talk about a giant letdown.
Ask yourself: why hasn't there been any kind of video and screenshot floods prior to release? Compare the amount media hype before Super Mario Galaxy vs. this game. There's a reason things were scant; they were hiding the ugly truth: this game stinks.
Jesus Christ, get the fuck over yourself Mr. Carnevale. You're no better than Al Sharpton, jumping all over someone for not being 100% politically correct.
The answer is clearly no? So I guess you've seen this movie? Good job talking out of your ass.
To be honest, his movie is definitely a wake-up call. We've been suffering through cookie-cutter comedies for years now where no one wants to make that movie that may offend someone. Scary Movie, Teen Movie, Date Movie, Epic Movie... Will Ferrell as a NASCAR driver! Will Ferrell as an ice skater! Will Ferrell as a basketball player! STOP IT, ALREADY! Thank god for silly foreigners to do something different.
Let's play ... Spot the Real Wii or DS Game 2!

Such a terrible disappointment.
