Pre-Order Question

[dlavia28]

Are there specific stores you get the code to get the added stadiums from when you pre-order?

I have a gift card at Target and I would like to use it for the game. If i pre-order from that, will I get the stadiums??

Re: Pre-Order Question

No such luck, Targets not on the list..

The six sports venues will be on the MLB 10 game disc. If you pre-order the game at GameStop, Amazon, Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Buy.com, or J&R, you’ll get a free voucher with an unlock code for the stadiums.

According to a reply from SCEA to a comment on the PS.Blog post, you will also be able to unlock the stadiums yourself -- but you’ll have to achieve a Platinum Trophy in the game (that is, earn all of the game’s Trophies) in order to do so.

I am going to buy mine at Best Buy in Canada, any indication of whether or not that voucher will be given there?

Re: Pre-Order Question

you probably should do online ordering then pickup in the store to get that voucher sent to your email.

Re: Pre-Order Question

And your best bet would be to ask the store. Nothing anyone tells you here is going to hold unless the actual store you make your purchase from is publicly stating this information.

Just make sure they are getting vouchers, that's all.

Not sure about Bestbuy in Canada but amazon.ca is offering the bonus and ebgames.ca (gamestop) is now as well.

Re: Pre-Order Question

Im fairly certain there will be a code released shortly after the game is out and everyone has fallen for the pre order nonsense

And if there's not you're screwed....why are people against preordering anyways? Do you feel a need to earn interest for a week on $5? LoL

Question:

Can I preorder The Show in-store at Walmart? My guess that you can do so online but does Walmart accept preorders in-store?

I normally preorder from GameStop or Game Crazy but I have a gift card to Walmart and would like to use it for The Show.

Some of us aren't used to doing it. I've never preordered a game before. No need to do it, as games are always incredibly easy to find around here. Not to mention I like keeping my money as long as I can in case I suddenly need it for something else.

for those interested in going Best Buy online route...

Free Classic Stadiums Download

Pre-order MLB: The Show 2010 for PS3, and you'll get a code via e-mail, on or around launch day, to download six historical ballparks.

You'll step onto the fields that played host to some of the national pastime's most memorable moments — from the Polo Grounds, where the famed "Shot Heard 'Round the World" was hit, to Griffith Stadium, with its radical dimensions, including a more than 400-foot left field line.

Plus, there are four more oldtime stadiums to host your hardball exploits: Shibe Park, Crosley Field, Sportsman's Park and Forbes Field.

Re: Pre-Order Question

You can preorder for $5, I seriously don't think that will break your bank will it? If it will then maybe you have more to think about in regards to spending money on games. AS for preordering, there is no need to do it in regards to getting the game (although that's debateable, wait until the first time you go to a store and they don't have the game, then you have to go somewhere else which is a hassle) but to get the extras that they give away with preorders there is a need to do it in most cases.

Honestly I don't care if anyone preorders or not, it's just funny to me that some people are so anti-preorder, as if somehow it's some big pyramid scheme that they refuse to buy into. That's fine, do what you want, but don't come on the forums crying about how you want the extras that come with preordering but you refuse to preorder. No one really wants to help you solve a problem that you are creating for yourself.
