Default Are you going to wait or buy it on day 1?

(Sorry, I might be addicted to polls)

Based on the many responses to TDK's thread titled "This time I'll wait...", I was curious on how many will wait and how many will purchase SH5 on day one.

I'll get the voting started with "Wait".

I think most people who say they'll wait will end up buying it sooner or later, so why bother wait in the first place?

Yeah, I'll more than likely buy it eventually, but I'm waiting for any issues to be resolved first, if any. I really hope there aren't very many problems and everything works relatively smoothly. But remember the stories about SH4. How many patches in the first year?

If I go into my local GameStop and, see a guy walking out with the one and only copy.

All I can say is... He better be wearing a Hardhat.

I want to thank all those who will be paying to beta test SH5 for me so that when I buy it (likely at a reduced price) it will actually be ready to play
