first guy wasnt a "young man" but his heart is young
Loving this comment, 6 years later
*putin walk*
7 years later
Yes 7 too XD
9 years later
I’m watching this in 2020 because it’s nice to remember the times before the Corona virus
Same
I live in Spain
Take away the “a”
🕺 you spin me right round baby right round
@@subline_funtime I hate you🤣
Australia in a worse case than UK and United States so fucking bored
Lmaooo ima order a Uber right after I leave GameStop in my mall when I pick up my PS5
The first guy will be forever known as "The Meth guy"
I fell off my chair that was so fucking funny. And yes, I think you are right, I just hope he wasn't driving very far.
Lmao🤣 6 years later this is still funny
Stfu
Probably snorted a whole bunch of meth to be able to stay up and stand in that line for several long hours
BmCNinJa u alive?
Hard to believe the ps4 launched 7 years ago lol. Time sure does fly
dam I was a freshman in highschool then.
6 years*
@@subline_funtime I wrote 7 because we are on the 7th year. 2013+ 7 = 2020. I'm not rounding it by the exact day and month.
SSJMark yeah I can tell
@Blu 1 week left now
Lets all imagine how ps5 launch nite will be with this corona business.
"Must keep a 1m distance from everyone!"
It probably won't even happen
@@chur_monty4357 😂
@@chur_monty4357 true!!
6ft is suggested bro
@@Torcher75 6ft aka 1.82 meters.
I was in my 3rd year in university, still remember that night I was on my way back to dorm and walked by GameStop. I was so jealous to everyone who's getting ps4 and Xbox one. And now I got a job and I bought it both. But still nothing beats the feeling of being part of the history.
George g 😂😂😂
Imagine if you're the first guy and your card declines with all the cameras watching 😅
Damn lol!
@@koonyeezy6433 😳
5:39 young mans life ? he's like 60 years old !
Not in Final Fantasy ;)
He might be like 29 years old just been doing loads of meth for over a decade
old is 90 years old
The real race is getting home without being mugged 😅
Lmao 😂
That was a real thing in my country. There was only 1 store with a midnight launch in my area. I remember walking superfast to my car.
i remember when gta v first released there was a dude with a gun on his side at gamestop while we were waiting in line i think he was prepared.
I’ll bring my gun with me tbh. But only pull it out if I need to tho
@@TeriyakiDior only in America
0:41 Is probably the greatest thing ever.
Hell ya! :D
DAT PSFOW
Amod Kala "yeah for sho! and that ps fo definitely!" Best rap line ever lmao!!!
@Slightly Bonkers what do you mean ?
Why does the PS4 launch day feel so retro already 😭 😭
Because Today the PlayStation 4 turns 10 years old!
0:41 imagine this dude saying "All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ"
The days before corona, where GameStop had more then 10 consoles, and stores....
By the time Wade leaves numbers 2-127 are already lvl50 on Killzone
The 227 guy is a liar. I was there with #221 receipt and this guy just cut me and was trying to trade-in his ps3 and was denied. He was asked to queue behind me and thats how he got his 227. I went there at 10PM.
Im not surprised he tried cutting in line or get some cash back for his old junk. Im surprised he didnt try to steal your stuff tho. Thats how them types are.
Damn 6 yrs later and I'm just now seeing this. Smh some guys are pathetic 😂😂😂
@@HOVA2195 who?
Lol
@@insanity23mike 'them types'? Fuck you.
I was in the line that night on November 13, 2013 .
I was here at this event. Those were the days queuing up for new release stuff. Meeting people who were just as energetic and passionate about the products. Even the Iphone releases were fun to wait in line. It would become an event in itself. Now it's just beat the scalpers online or wait until inventory gets better.
Best memories ever
So true
Damn and PS5 is just around the corner, wonder who the first buyer is going to be next gen??!!
Probably another meth head
A pink haired gender fluid lesbian
Someone in Australia
For ps5 launch it's not going to be like tht its gonna be people who only pre ordered if u didnt pre order good luck till march
Chaise Samargis cap
Nov 12, let's go! Man, the energy of console releases always gets me. The beginning of an era.
Last favorite era of GameSpot. GameSpot is still my preferred gaming site, but I truly enjoyed 2001-2013 years.
yup
The presenter was surprisingly funny, subtly taking the piss out of the entire thing. Good job. It's always weird watching american presenters hype up the most mundane things, this guy gave it straight up.
The media can only survive by making people think materialism matters as well as selling their products / views.
He’s British
Or maybe Irish
This was 9 years ago
@@jjhunterdamn i definitely didn’t know
Danny is awesome! This was something that wasn't naturally hilarious but his quips were dead on and made this fun to watch! Also he didn't come off as arrogant which is hard to do with a sarcastic type of humor. Great job Danny!
Wade:"I'm about to go merk some fools"
I never buy consoles at the release date, i just wait 5 years before buying.
I'll usually wait a few months if I really want it. Some launch consoles are buggy
I wait 7 years
@@f12got49 good plan. With plenty of current gen games. Its bound to keep you busy for years
I wait for later models which I will do for next gen
@miguel ornelas i bought my ps4 pro for 125 usd
Legend has it that this guy hasn't slept til today...
Wade is Trevor.
I can't believe this was 9 years ago
I was very first in line to get a PS4 at the GameStop at great mall in Milpitas, California on Black Friday of 2013. I remember that the second person to get in line wasn’t until at least 30 minutes later. I waited a total of about 4 1/2 hours for doors to open at GameStop.
Damm I was 19 when the ps4 came out and I got mines in 2015. Now it’s 2019 and I am 25. Crazy how time flies man.
Yehh same tech I was in yr 6 10 years old now I'm 16 and in college ill be 17 when it's out rahhh time flies, and crazy same tech from around 2012, 13 is styll going strong
23 at the time I got it in 2014. I'm getting old 😭😭
saurav raj Singh bro we’re getting old! I’ll be 20 when the PS5 comes out wtf happened
@@saucyx4 still young man.😆😆😄
Cant wait to see how ps5 and xbox launch looks like feel like?!
Sadly such launches are dying, people just buy them online now to cut the Q and receive it on day 1
NOT LIKE THIS Lol, especially not at this specific location since it shut down a year ago
@@umran89 yep
That Wade guy is still there, showing off his pride and glory.
10 years later: look at the launch of the new PS5 here
You can just order it
It's here
The good old days when we could socialise I imagine there be no queue for the next gen.
“I hope you get a taxi home buddy”
He said this to him cuz he knew that guy was about to get jumped if he walked home with all that stuff lol
Watching in November 2020
Wade is still there with his PS4
lol didn't see a line like that for xbox one lmao
There is fool
raquan williams never will see line only ps fan i can’t wait for nov 2020
愚かなばか
raquan williams or pc parts
Because I pre order mine and got it early morning shipped to my home didn't want to be one of you bozos getting rob down the street
With the ps5 launch day coming, this feels like when I was hyped for ps4 launch and was watching ps3 launch day lol
Can't believe it's already been 10 years
Coming up on a decade since this awesome console was released
Watching this 9 years later 😂
There was barely anybody having their console crash though and even if it crashed they would be shipped a brand new one over night so its not that bad
Aww I remember this day very well wanting to get my hands on one ;) Didn't get till a month later.
Seeing this video before the next generation arrives. Almost bittersweet seeing how much time has passed.
I wonder if that Wade guy is going to line up again for the PS5? 😀
The return of the king
Hes probably dead from meth overdose by now.
The first Guy in line looks like uncle Jack from Breaking Bad lol
you're goddamn right!
That was pretty cool to see! It was even cooler when the guy said he was from Sydney, Australlia!
Got this recommended to me 6 years later...😄
you see the Rev3 guy get all sad when he see's the Gamespot guy lololol
This looks damn exciting.. I wonder if the upcoming next gen console launches will be like this as well, at all over the world.. I really hope so..
That's not likely to be the case in the US.
To my understanding, brick-and-mortar retailers, such as Best Buy, are allowing customers who pre-ordered the system the ability to pay for the system outright days before the system's release date.
Better still, you can schedule the exact hour you'd like to retrieve your system, which I imagine would help thin out crowds.
He’s been there 24 hours ?thats crazy
Crazy how things can change in just 6 years . . .
4:43 Scott Bromley!
Damn, what did Wade take before he got his ps4
Drugs wade took drugs 😂😂😂
@@MichaelsExplorations meth lol
6:18 he was so close to saying, "I'll let you enjoy the best moment of your life" but changed it to 'week' last second.
It’s about to 10 years since the launch of the ps4 💀
I'm tickled for PlayStation fans to get there system yesterday, Outstanding. I wait for my treat next Thursday midnight release :D.
Exactly November 22nd it's on :)
Yessir can’t wait for the Xbox One lets fucking go
Is the PS4 pre order bonus cocaine?
I remember going and just walking up and waiting in line, getting the xbox and the week after the PS4 at their midnight launch with no preorder. So easy. My ps5 i didn't sleep for 3 days but got it at launch without preorder. Wasnt easy
who knows how many of them we came across maybe while in game.
last console launch in a normal world
Yes! Go Team Toaster!
I could watch Danny interview random people on the street for days.
covid 2020 ps4 kunch date !! cant wait to go back and watch it !!
That guy drink too much coffee.
Go Team Coffee
I tried to buy a Ps4 today and no where for 50 miles around me had any. Why wouldnt places like Gamestop get a bigger than usual first day supply on a new console? I asked the guy at Gamestop and he acted like they only had a few to sell today and they didnt know when they were getting more. This is a big launch and they're supposed to be a dedicated video game store. They need to step it up.
the dude following the camera around behind the reporter lmao
I see Danny O’Dwyer doing a GameSpot video, I click.
I miss the days of seeing him do videos for them...
Danny, if I knew you were going to be at the San Francisco PS4 launch night, I would have gladly pre-ordered and waited for you. I love you.
uhhh, that's kinda weird man......
0:41 "yeah for sho! And that ps fo definitely!" The guy felt so good saying that lmao best rap line ever haha xD!!!!!
P.s: GO TEAM TOASTER!!
I was a sophomore in newyork university and still remember queueing up for that cutting edge tech.Now my kids would never get that feeling
2 years today.
Funny when he said gamestop I mean gamespot. I mess up like him all the time
Damn wish I got one
do you me a four haha xD
KoolAid lol you're right
Lol
Did u end up getting one lmao
PS5 is closing in
U liked how they had simebody with a Mic, never seen that before. That's why I like midnight launches even though I've never been to one. I just like the atmosphere.
I'm so hype I came back to watch this to get an idea of what it'll feel like when I grab ps5
8:12 Gamestop hahahahaha
"I have been up for 2 days"
Yep...we know why
I went and picked up mine on launch day too. We didn't get any media attention at our gamestop 😑😑
When I picked up my launch day ps5, it was a line of about 30 people who were all turned away due to their being no stock except preorders. I waited for them to leave before going in to retrieve mine. I was checking my rear view mirror on the drive home lol.
Go teamToaster!!!!!
Imagine when the ps5 comes out and people have to lift it up to show the other people:
People: come on lift it higher
Buyer: I can't it's too tall
Damm ps4 still feels like last year to
Me wild how fast time fly’s.
If we pre ordered already do we still have to wait in line with everybody else?
yes
Wade is a #1 badass
This video almost look like ps3 launch video that looked 90's
I was in that line. Went woo. And my PS4 works great. Haha.
Happy that i got my system that night and for everyone else that did...And too all those getting the xbox have fun and get those same feelings we did :)
Lol saw the rev3 guy!
PS4 was such a better launch than this year. I remember going to GameStop and leaving within minutes after I got my number. This year was wrecked due to scalping.
Legend says Wade can still be found at that GameStop
7 years later and we're about to repeat history...
Just wait for ps5
This was 5 years ago
2021
Dumbest comment I've seen in a while
Hi I’m from the future and the PS5 preorder sold out in a matter of minutes and it’s CRAZY
@@ammarimtiaz4751 November 12 2020
Back when cod was actually good. People even me would camp outside for mw2 at gamestop just like this lol
UMM COD GHOSTS WAS THE FIRST COD ON PS4 it's terrible
I miss when we could do this
Far better Launch than PS5 cause no Jim Ryan no Pandemic
Meathead had been up for 24hours and only bought Killzone ffs 😂😂
He said 2 days not 24 hours
Methhead not meathead bruh
It has split screen and it's one of the best
Killzone was amazing tbh. Shame the one for PS4 was a weaker game of the franchise. Left a bad taste in a lot of peoples mouths unfortunately.
at 2:20 is that mini Ladd over this guys shoulder??
the good thing about ireland is the lines are way shorter
"It's interesting how most of the people we talked to are only getting one or two games..." Is this guy for real?! Those people just spent close to $500-$570 on the console and those 1-2 games (that's including tax). Plus the line up isn't full of "must have" games anyways.
thinking the same thing
Cornelius Gustafason nothing compared to the $760 I spent on PS3, First game and Blu Ray movie (Superman Returns). I still have the console to this day! In near mint with box (premium backwards compatible 60GB version!
@@DangerousDevilOfficial you should sell it to me lol
Jacob Medina as the collector saying goes: “you can have it when you peel it from my cold, dead hands”. 😂😂
