Do you pre-order games?
I think I only pre-ordered GTA 4.

But do you pre-order games? I'm working on a theory.

I only tend to pre-order a game if I've been anxiously waiting ages for it or it's a special edition, otherwise I just wait it out until they drop in price. The only game I've pre-ordered this gen is Catherine.

I've seen lots of people complain about the same day dlc content from Mass Effect 3and threatening to cancel their pre-order. It is my theory that people pre-ordering in such huge quantities gives publishers the balls to make first day dlc that you have to pay for.

I've only ever pre-ordered two games: Legend of Zelda Wind Waker and Gran Turismo 5 Collector's Edition.

LoZ because it had the Ocarina of Time/Master Quest gift.

GT5 because I really wanted the Collector's Edition stuff.

No.
If I really want a game, I buy it at launch. Never had a problem where game was "sold out".

Your theory is retarded, and so are you.

Anyway, I pre-order if there's good bonuses.

Bitching about the Mass Effect content is similarly retarded, by the way.

I think bitching about the mass effect stuff is rather pointless. But I wouldn't say its without warrant.

I do preorder some games like skyrim, Zelda, grand 5 Batman, etc. Big huge games. I won't be preordering me3 because I'm not finished with 2. I started over because I failed to stop the assasinatuon attempt by dudes son.

It is without warrant. People are bitching they have to pay a premium for what was always earmarked as premium content. I mean, people pre-ordering the Collector's Edition knew they were getting something to this effect (new character and stuff), and even some of them are canceling in protest like they didn't know this from the time they ordered it.

Further, people are pissed that this limited edition content can actually be purchased by people who didn't get the limited edition version. They're calling it a cash grab and an outrage and accuse them of deliberately withholding content and it's all fucking stupid.

Further, anyone who's cool with limited edition releases for other media and bitching about this is a fucking hypocrite. I bet that includes you, Clox, since I know you think this is not unwarranted but eat up bonus content from musicians.

Only for 2-3 games and those were within a week or two from its release date.

I think Muramasa on the Wii was the only one I pre-ordered knowing there wouldn't be a lot of copies available so that was to make sure the place ordered a copy for me.

Prior to the mainstay that is the pre-order bonus, I think the only time I pre-ordered a game was Burnout 3, and mostly because at that point the local gamestop was frequently understocked on new titles.

Oh, how I loved that game.

Actually OK I agree with you. I think its less than intelligent to get pissed about. However it isn't tottally unwarranted I.e. why they put out doc the day of as opposed to ten weeks later or so. Because that shoes that they could have out it in the game.

Its less than intelligent however for the reasons you stated, its premium content.
So dude we agree I just fontthink its so black and white.

I've never had this problem. Though that might be because I'm a PC gamer and don't own any consoles.

I have to admit though that I considered it for Diablo 3 but fuck it, if I have to wait then I wait.

OMG all of those typos are one letter away from what I meant. Jeez. If you can't infer from that what I meant you might be a little dumb.

I said it's unwarranted. You agree. You then say it's not unwarranted.

Oi.

But let's move on to your newer (though equally stupid) claim.

Day 1 DLC does not "shoe" that they could have put it on disc. There is a roughly 3 month period during which the game has been finalised, but is not on shelves. It is perfectly possible to release Day 1 DLC without withholding content, my semi-literate faux-intellectual chum. This is what Bioware claimed they did.

Regardless, there is no warrant to that because even if it could have been put on disc, then what? Since this was designed to be Collector's Edition content, people would be locked out if they didn't buy the CE. You currently have the option to get the premium content even if you didn't reserve the premium version. Why is this a problem again? Why would putting it on disc make it any better?

Yes, clearly Fangerl is to blame that your posts are too shitty for even you to bother reading them.

You're missing the point, Clox. Shit, if Fangerl's too deep for you, I wonder why you think you can match wits with Cooler Tom Schuler.

I can see the point of people being upset about it being released on the same day as it turns a $60 purchase into a $75 one. Perhaps it is a cash grab and most gamers I think would appreciate their money being spent over time for additional content instead of something they can purchase for the game on the very day it is released and theoretically could/should have been included with the game.

This would be akin to IW releasing a map pack for a Modern Warfare game the day it launches. The fanboy response would be unbearable.

That being said, it doesn't mean much as the people who would have bought it two weeks later will likely in both cases still purchase it at launch.

well there are clearly dumber people than even you here and they all manage to make intelligible posts when it comes to grammar. You can cry all you want about "still being able to understand it" but the fact is it looks like an 8 year old makes your posts and given your history of generally saying some dumb fucking stuff anyway and that it literally takes a few seconds to fix, you're going to rightly get shit for it

Its not even the typos. Those can happen without notice or because you didn't realize you spelt it incorrectly. What I'm taming about is wen sentence you write suchas this one.

There is literally nothing you said there I haven't already tackled.

In fact, a few dozen more typos and you could have passed for Clox.
