At
long last, all of our videos from the
Grand Theft Auto IV
midnight launch at the Dundas Square Best Buy in downtown Toronto are
finally online. We had a lot of fun on Monday night, leading up to
the launch, and that was thanks in part to a very craftily handled
promotion for the Xbox 360 version of the game, including an entire
cast and crew of Liberty City policewomen, a fake reporter and a plot
to steal all of the copies
of GTA IV
from
the Best Buy.
There
were a large number of people lined up to purchase the game. The
numbers were likely helped by the news that Microsoft and Best Buy
were giving away
Grand Theft Auto IV
merchandise and a Limited Edition
GTA IV
Xbox
360. The first 100 people in line at each of the five Best Buy
locations that were doing the midnight launch were eligible to win
one the Limited Edition Xbox 360s.
We
hope you enjoy watching the videos as we did producing them.
