This $1.5 billion PC gaming company's first US store just upstaged the new Apple Store in San Francisco

Razer is a company that makes PC game equipment for hardcore gamers.

Although relatively unknown to non-gamers, the Southern California-based company enjoys a truly cult-like following, often being called the "Apple of the gaming industry." In its last round of funding, Razer was reportedly valued at $1.5 billion.

And on Saturday, when it opened its first-ever US-based store in downtown San Francisco, Razer lived up to its reputation: its fanatic customers formed an Apple-like long line around the corner, upstaging the new Apple Store that opened in San Francisco this week as well.

Here are a few photos we were able to take from the scene:
