How many people here preorder?

Re: How many people here preorder?

I pre-order and usually buy online. I have a 20 miles drive through "Automation Alley" @ Rush Hour to get to my nearest EB, GameStop, or Best Buy. Except for special circumstances (NCAA, Madden, GTA) I don't mind being a day or so behind. I hate traffic!! Especially when I have the game sitting in the seat next to me and I am sitting in a parking lot of a freeway for 90 minutes!!

BTW - For those of you that don't know "Automation Alley" is the 2nd largest concentration of IT business in the country. It's located on a 3 miles strip in Novi, MI. People always called in "Silicon Alley" becaue it's 2nd to Silicon Valley and it's 25 miles from Detroit. So, the PR folks got involved and decided to dub it "Automation Alley". Whatever!!! I call it...!#@@$#$ Traffic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you guys do pre-order, please use the EB link in the top right corner of the Forums, or on the main OS page. I get 5% of the sale to help w/ the hosting fees. Every little bit helps.

Re: How many people here preorder?

Well my bonus Zelda cd has been lost by freaking UPS!! Would have arrived Wednesday! Talked to EB and they appologized and said they will have more bonus CD's in a couple days and I would get one not too far after the 16th(I was supposed to get before 16th as I pre-ordered earlier enough for first shipment)
That whole week I will be out of town. This is the first time I did 3 day and not overnight. Never had a problem with Fed Ex losing anything in all these years. Ultimate Parcel Screwups=UPS

Just venting a little

Yeah but Fed-ex isn't the one that lost my order. It was UPS. And it was scanned in at a warehouse saturday. Now Monday (last night) they could not locate it. Looks like someone got a freebie...

Re: How many people here preorder?

well - when I preordered mine friday night, I was told I could pick of the bonus on the 16th.

Isn't this a Sunday - it does not make any sense to me why they would let you pick up the game on a day when they will not get any shipments in.

Re: How many people here preorder?

Yep it's a Sunday. They are just going buy the date of the 16th because that was the date of the cutoff between getting a first or second shipment bonus CD.
