Do you pre-order games?

Some people preorder games so they dont have to worry about forgetting about it. And some people dont because they want to try it out first. I personally have 4 games preordered: Modern Warfare 2, This is Vegas, Rock Band Beatles, and Prototype. Do you have any currently preordered. Which ones?

Sometimes... Generally on games which are massive...

I pre-ordered GTAIV, BioShock, Halo3, Call of Duty 4... etc etc...

I'll be pre-ordering Modern Warfare 2 though :)

  2. I usually only do if there's a good preorder bonus, or if its a game I think might be so popular it'll quickly sell out at launch, and be hard to find. Otherwise, I just stroll into a store and buy them first day or soon after that with no problem, or wait for the game to come down in price.

  3. Negative! Can't bear to claim that I find it helpful. If I got like 20% off, then sure, I'd pre-order and give my money away for free for a while.

  4. Only on Games that have cool swag. I didn't even Pre-order Street Fighter 4 Collectors Edition on the Ps3.. I was lucky enough to find a copy.. you see how much that goes for on Ebay and Amazon?. I totally got lucky on that one.

  5. I used to pre-order everything, till I learned there was really no point to it. The only thing I have pre-ordered in like a year is Devil Summoner 2 and that was just to get the Jack Frost plush for free.

  6. I don't currrently own a PS2, but pre-ordered Ar Tonelico 2 since it's only £14.99 and I don't want to end up missing my chance, supposed to be manufactured in small numbers. That and the Fallout 3 expansion pack are the only ones.

    I'd pre-order more if I found any genuine reason to (like some goodies), but rarely seem to see them any more. For instance, Play.com have some gimmicky 'unlock codes' or whadeva but there's no way I'm going out of my way for crud like that, whereas pre-ordering BioShock netted a new fascia for my console.
