Pre-ordering
So, first of all, I live in Canada. While we have Gamestop, we have a Canadian version called EB Games as well.
These are, more or less, the cornerstone retailers in the business. They get all the good pre-order bonuses, and they have the worst business plan.
Anyways, for the last couple of months, I have refused to buy from them. This put me into a bit of a predicament. Where was I going to pre-order?
Basically, I went to Future Shop. Really great service, and I pre-ordered Call of Duty: Ghosts (X360) (sue me, it looks awesome), Pokémon: X Version, and Batman: Arkham Asylum (X360).
What, where and why did you guys pre-order?
-
Futureshop. In canada as well. They had a 10% of all game preorders.... So I got Cod pristege, titanfall, halo, battlefront, watchdogs, ac5, witcher 3.
-
Amazon always delivers my stuff five to six hours before midnight launch.
-
Gamestop. The guys at the one by me know me, and their all pretty chill. I preordered Ghosts, BF4 Premium, AC Black Flag, Watch Dogs, Titanfall, and Destiny. Quite the line-up, all for the Xbox One

Prepare to be sued.

Walmart sometimes has cool things with orders or game purchases period.

I pre-order almost all of my games from Amazon. I'll only make an exception if I want to go to a midnight release, or I want to get in the early morning as opposed to the afternoon when UPS delivers my packages. In either of those cases, I'll pre-order at GameStop.
-
I rarely preorder games. Only games i preordered were reach on some weird website ( i never received the package), halo ce anniversary at gamestop and halo 4 from amazon... Yeah that's it
-
GameStop. Sue me, I trade in my games.

Anything else I go through a local store called GameOn. The people are awesome there and they sell new games for $55 instead of $60.

3 RepliesSince you are in Canada, online retailers like Amazon who do pre orders maybe your best option

1 ReplyEB games was bought out by GameStop here in the U.S. So nearly all of the EB games (or all) were renamed to GameStop.
