To pre or not to pre? That is the Question.

Hello again! 

I just got back from pre-ordering my copy of Gear of War 3! I'm thrilled! While I was there I thought I'd discuss some of the pros of pre-ordering. I only say pros because what could be wrong about ensuring that you're not the noob without the latest game? 

First of all, pre-ordering guarantees that you'll get a copy on the release day. if there's a midnight release, you'll be home and playing by 1 (this is a front of the line statistic) Also it gives you access to a ridiculous amount of bonus content that is often not available any other way. 

This year's super mega ultra release is Killzone 3! If you pre-order from Gamestop, you'll get an exclusive PSN code unlocking all of the multiplayer weapons and abilities for the first 24 hours of gameplay. You'll also receive the Killzone 3 Retro Map Pack which features 2 of the most popular maps from KZ 2. However, if you're a Killzone superfan then the Killzone 3: Helghast Edition is right up your alley.It'll set you back $129.99, buuuuuut you'll get all of the aforementioned goodies, plus double the XP for the first 24 hours, the KZ 3 soundtrack and a sweet dynamic theme for your PS3. It will also have not one but 2 exclusive collector's items, one of which will not be sold at retail....EVER! Here's a picture of the epicness:


You're all excited now right? Ok well, even if you're not swayed by all the swag, pre-ordering is still awesome! You can put money down whenever you'd like as you lead up to the release date. You might not have sixty dollars to blow the day the game comes out, but you can pay in increments of as little as 5 dollars. Cool, right? I hope I've converted at least one procrastinator out there :3 Until next time, happy pwning!
