I ended up 112 for Bioshock 2 (360).  I kept getting service unavailable a few times until 2 am when I gave up.  I never got confirmation that my request had been successfully entered into queue so I was pretty happy when I got up this morning to see that I had made it in.

i have such a bag log right now being this high in the queue is only helping me.  By the time I catch up on my back log I will be getting these games in.

Wow! What's the secret to getting so high on the list?!  

I tried from 1 am on and finally got through after about a half hour of yelling at my computer!

Lots of tabs at once, lots of clicking, lots of patience

Would've had a great spot, if I didn't follow the dumb advice of requesting through the future releases page. Got through about 2 min in, but it asked me if I wanted to put it on my wish list. I knew this was going to happen. Going back to my old way next week.

That means you clicked too soon.  The actual update time for some reason is like 1:00:20 AM EST.  I did the future releases page and it worked fine but just took a few minutes to update.

This and as of late, a lot of luck.

Ugh, I just wanted to say, in regards to DI Divine Edition... come on EA, you've been in the game long enough to know not to put stickers on a foil ink slip cover, so when they are removed, they 100% remove the foil with them.  *face palm* 

I should have realized before removing the top one, but at least I noticed in time to put the clear sticker back on and preserve the art.

So, as fair warning, if you buy ps3 Dante new, cut the game free instead of removing the seal stickers, unless you don't care about the slip cover.

By all the laws of irony, now that you can't play any of the games, you should be getting 1st for every one of them.

When I clicked on New Releases this morning, I didn't see the two entries for PS3 Dante's Inferno (there's about 20 games in between them in the New Releases list), so I went ahead and added the 2nd one now.  I'm 78th and 146th.  That's kinda messed up.
