I was wondering where my new family of addicted disticles have preordered Destiny. Gamestop seems to be the only place to get a preorder bonus (red sparrow) other than the armory. I'm conflicted with ordering it from Amazon however, because they ship day one. What do you guys think?

  • Either go digital, or go gamestop. I know a lot of people hate on gamestop, most of the time it's because they've been scorned by a bad trade experience that they don't fully understand. "I paid $60 for this game 6 months ago, why are you offering me 5 bucks for it?" "Because that game is now worth $15/20 preowned, and preowned is where we make a profit. We make next to nothing on new sales. It's just like going to the movies; concession prices are high because the revenue from ticket sales just covered the movie rental costs." But I digress. Gamestop usually has, I've noticed, the best exclusive content, works the closest with the developers/publishers, and will generally be more knowledgeable about upcoming products than someone working at walmart or best buy, because games are all they do. That, and using destiny as an example, they've not had to cancel so many preorders because they "ran out of stock," because they pay attention to shit like that. So digital on the console of you want it instantly, or gamestop of you want a physical copy.

    • Go digital on PSN on PS4. You can preload the game 2 days earlier and it unlocks at midnight. Which is pretty awesome.

      • Generally I tend to go between Amazon and Gamestop. I used to not live by gamestop so I would rely on Amazon.

      • Unless you are getting a special edition go digital it doesn't take up that much space on your console plus you can have it playable at exactly midnight

            • I went with Best Buy. I end up getting a reward zone voucher for ten bucks so that can go towards the purchase of a new headset. :D
