kongsnutz Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Today i went down to my local EB games and pre-ordered GTA - ChinaTown Wars. Who here has done the same? Who here intends to? Who here doesn't want to Pre-Order? (Mainly this is just to give you all something to talk about.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roofgoof Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I've pre ordered mine at EB Games as well. Fiance has a DS so I though why not. I'll play GAT-CW at work to pass time. Pre-order gives you something like $10G and some weapons that arent immediatly available from the start Yes I get paid to play games and sit on computer all day... jealous?

WhatsPoppin Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I pre-ordered because my DS has been collecting dust and this game mite liven it up for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGBeast Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I pre-ordered at a Toys R Us to avoid the crappy Gamestop stuff. 14 more days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrainToastNG Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I preordered at Blockbuster because I feel like actually playing through the game, the way it's supposed to be played. And, once I get this, I'll be playin' nonstop and my DS will probably never turn off again. Less than 2WKS now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuckPond Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Well, i know the guy who owns the Game shop i go in every day, so he'll just keep me one behind the shelf. Along with some GTA Posters and stuff. =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slamman Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 It's "Whether" there, big guy! I can tell you I saw the emails this week, I laughed about pre ordering because I doubt this will be long lines to the extent of GTA4's release. I'd be surprised if so, I guess.

nerner Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I haven't pre ordered, i am going to get it when it comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mince Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I preordered from amazon. I also paid extra bucks for release date delivery so I could get it on the day it's released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuruAskew Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Two preorders: One for myself One for my sister First one I preordered was from Gamestop to get the 10k/guns. I actually had both preorders there at the time. When I found out about the Amazon.com preorder bonus (the exclusive bulletproof Infernus) I canceled 1 Gamestop preorder and placed an Amazon.com preorder Amazon's bonus is definitely better than Gamestop's.

gamerzworld Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Pre-ordered mine at Gamestop. I was thinking about Amazon, but I didn't want to have to pay for overnight delivery. I mean, I already spent $129 on a DS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA3Rockstar Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I haven't looked into this game and its coming out soon. Most likely because its only on the DS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowqiller Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Didn't pre-order , but I'll be picking it up on release day , along with TrackMania DS. That will bring my DS game collection to #53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuruAskew Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I can tell you I saw the emails this week, I laughed about pre ordering because I doubt this will be long lines to the extent of GTA4's release. I'd be surprised if so, I guess. Then we'd be laughing at you while we're playing it and you're not because you didn't preorder. Sorta like how I laugh at you for not being able to play "The Lost and Damned". Christ, if there's another thing that annoys me (and I'm not going to get into that, just go to the TLaD board and you'll figure it out) it's the people who think they're somehow sticking it to the man by bashing the concept of a preorder. Even without the preorder bonuses I've known that I'll have my copy of "Chinatown Wars" on the 17th for months. Months ago (it had to be in '08) I waltzed into Gamestop and put my money down and I haven't worried about it since. I don't need to worry about walking into Gamestop and being customer #21 when they only got 20 copies and even if I'm customer #7 and they got 20 copies there's still no harm done. It's not like I lose my $5 or something. It's the same money I'd be paying to buy the game and it ensures that I get my copy. There's literally no downside. But yeah, if anything should be eliciting laughter it's the fact that you've wasted hours and hours of your life debating video games on an online forum but you're somehow above preordering. That's comedy gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mince Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Gaah. I hate myself. Since i preordered online, I have to wait for it to actually come to my house! It's coming today, but yeah, later on... as in about 9 hours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
