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

Although relatively unknown to nongamers, 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, stealing some of the spotlight from 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:
