    Default Pre-ordering

    How often do you guys pre-order?
    I can only remember having pre-ordered something once. I tend to wait till the reviews are out and get it cheaper. But often, pre-ordering comes with some awesome extras, which means you've got to balance the extras to the possibility of the game being horrible. (I can't help but think that the game is more likely to be a fail, so i don't pre-order)

    I never pre-ordered a game - even if I really really really wanted a game - I waited and there are tons of game stores around me, one place or another was bound to have the game even if it was sold out in most places. So i never bothered pre-ordering.

    Never. Only thing I do over here in Saudi is I tell the guy @ the shop to reserve one for me then I get it on the release date.

    You don't need to pre-order or turn up at a midnight launch ... There's always loads the day after and usually for cheaper !
