Fry's Launch Event - Good Game
StarCraft II is now live world-wide, and the Fry's event here on the west coast is winding down with plenty of happy players leaving with their copies. As the line filed inside, spectators still waiting in the queue got to watch a final 2v2 match pitting Blizzard's Rob Lin and attendee Tri-Vien Nguyen against Blizzard's Matt Gotcher and attendee Patton Tran. After Matt and Patton claimed victory in the first game, the two teams swapped members for a rematch, with Rob and Patton coming out victorious.
Meanwhile, the line continued inside, as the over 1,300 attendees had a chance to get their copies signed by dozens of StarCraft II developers and Blizzard employees.
And around the world, the sound of happy players clicking their mice and tapping their keyboards fills the air.

@PaulDoFish: They're very good people and were perfectly willing to sign copies of the game, though tracking them down given their schedule last night may not have been as easy. ;)
@Zarhym Thx!! As a performer and host myself I totally understand, so I was extremely grateful, and I can't wait to show my support at future events *cough* cataclysm.
Mine did not do anything special. They had us go at 10 to finish the payment and then pick it up at midnight, that was it. So lame if you ask me. Did you have a better luck?
