Early Effect: K-Mart Breaks Mass Effect Streetdate

Filed in archive News on November 10, 2007

So, you're a 57 year old woman working in the electronics section at the local k-mart. A big box of videogames comes in the mail. You're going to put them on the shelf, right? "Do Not Sell Until 11/20" stickers be damned! The games go in that big glass case, not in boxes in the back! And if some handsome young man from Cheap Ass Gamer comes in and asks to buy a game, you're going to sell it to him, right? Right:

CAGs uberczar915 and Viper22 have both been able to purchase Mass Effect at Kmart (Viper22 got his in Crofton, MD), almost two weeks early. Click the thumbnail on the left for a bigger picture and check the CAG forums for more details and updates.

Unfortunately for me the K-Marts in my area seem to have been informed ahead of time that handsome young men might be asking for Mass Effect early - I was promptly informed by all that they had no copies in stock.
