I'm 90% sure it was just new accounts up bidding the copy just for s**** and giggles.
I doubt the final bid willl payout that much. I'd bet the guy maybe ends up with $100, if that. The game releases in 4 days and anybody with an ounce of sense would know that by the time the game ships you wont have made more then a few hours ground on people who just go to the midnight release.
Sign of the times. I'm pretty sure this was foretold by Isaiah in the Bible. Oh well, humanity is doomed, better get to repenting...right after this TDM match....
Wonder if there are more hardcore fans out there for any other series than this guy though. At least he's committed to what he likes, dunno if many others could claim they're bigger fans of their favorite games than him.
I can understand it a little better if it was....say... Half life 3 and it was a very early beta copy or something, but 4 days or something from release and a game that will get a reindition and DLC that will drastically change the original game not far from launch...wow, what an idiot.
They should start selling copies a few weeks early that are like triple price. I bet alot of the uber fans would buy them. dkdk999Next marketing scheme right here.
all he can play early is the campaign. did he really think the campaign is worth that much?BrunoBRSI think he just wants "I have MW3 early before millions of other people".
[QUOTE="fusionhunter"]No game is worth over a 1000 bucks, plus I doubt he can do much online until Tuesday, guess the campaign will have to hold him.Well there's probably going some people playing online that he might be able to match make with given the popularity of the game.Well there is the chance the guy is an absolute millionaire.

..he spends 1.7k on a game and he needs to get laid? What does that even have to do with getting a girl? Seriously I don't understand gamers at all. They get their panties in a bunch when some media outlet does a story on gamers and it's all stereotypes and cry "IM NOT LIKE THAT!" but then you guys just go and put stereotypes on other people.that guy needs to get laid bad

How dumb, why didn't he just buy a pc, and play BF3 before CoD, then buy CoD?InconsistancyBecause he wants MW3 and playing BF3 has nothing to do with anything. Anyway, the bids were fake, new accounts just to make the bid even higher.
Deserted? Are you serious? There are still tons of people playing COD4, MW2 and of course BO.Hmmm, bet he going to regret that somewhere down the line. Specially seeing MP is pretty much deserted at this point and SP isn't going to be long enough to last 3 days.
No wonder Activision think they charge Australian $100 for the game cause people will pay anything to play it.

I would try this with MW4 and see if it works, to be honest.
i could understand if it was, like, six months early, but the week before? i mean are you that anxious to play the campaign? i figure a fan that hardcore would be one of those MP obsessed people. good luck with that, considering no one else has the game yet.
also, it would be hilarious if the shipping was 6 days or something
I almost paid a guy $250 to get MGS4 a week early. Yes I loved MGS that much.
At that point MGS was still my favorite series and I figured with as many hours of replay value I got out of MGS2 and MGS3 it would be well worth it. Luckily some guy out bid me and saved me the misery of spending so much money on such a turd of a game. Even at $60 the game was a rip off.
Anyways, I'm sure this guys about to feel some buyers remorse.
