U.S. game retailer GameStop announces plans to hold midnight madness events for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 to sell DICE's military shooter sequel at the crack of midnight on the game's March 2 release date. This page is where to locate a participating store in your area, and while most stores will open March 1 at 10:00 pm local time for the event, they urge you to call ahead to ensure you are clear on what's going on. They also remind us of their special offers for the game: "Pre-order Battlefield: Bad Company 2 now from GameStop and receive instant access to the AKS-74 assault rifle for multiplayer action. In addition, reserve the game and receive a code for exclusive 30-day early access starting March 2 to the new multiplayer game mode, Squad Rush" (the early Squad Rush access is for Xbox 360 only, DICE has announced it will be unlocked on PC from day one).
