ya i definitely love promos like this one. i don't see where it makes sense for the publisher in a money wise sense though because if their thought is use a promo to get people to pre order and buy the full game, it has a flaw because people can easily cancel the pre order afterwards. |

hopefully this sets the ground work for game-linking in the future with bigger name titles. |

Anyone know who these "participating retailers" are? I checked Gamestop and they have the $40 price, but no preorder bonus mentioned. |

Dang... another something that I'm pretty sure will not happen in Korea. we'd be lucky to get the XBLA Banjo Kazooie released here, let alone getting it early and free. |

Yeah comment #27, I would also like to know who the participating retailers are, i would like to guess it would be the giants such as Walmart, gamestop and maybe Best Buy. |

I love the achievement game-linking features that are showing up in games (this, Castle Crashers/Alien Hominid, and GoW/GoW2). Finally something substantial to come out of achievements besides quelling my OCD need to complete every game I play 100%. Also nice to see Rare making a name for themselves again, between this and Viva Pinata, they're taking the right steps.
Though I'm still not sold on the new game, I'll definitely pre-order for the code and switch the game if it turns out to be garbage. |

Cheapest we'd see this in the UK (on release) in the shops I reckon would be £30...Ironic if we didn't get this offer considering Rare is UK based...Altho maybe they're gonna spring Killer Instinct on the UK instead! I can dream damnit. C-C-C-C-C-C-C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!!!!! |

 | Comment #53 by SuperGaz
Wednesday, August 20, 2008 @ 11:55:04 AM
i think thats a steal i wouldnt mind through the first game on its own for 20 quid if it had a bit of a revamp but with the new game aswell this seems like the deal of the year,
hopefully itl come across the shore to the UK because id snap there hands |

For people looking for online retailers supporting the pre-order bonus, I just went to Amazon.com and they have it right there at the top of the product page. |

As for who the retailers are, I'm sure they won't reflect on the websites yet. You would most likey have to ask them in store. |

@60:
I went in a few days ago, but if they're not participating in the deal then I will transfer my 5$ to Fable 2 or Fallout 3. I want the original oh, so badly. =(
Gamestop always participates in the pre-order shenanigans; why wouldn't they now? |

Sunday, August 24, 2008 @ 08:27:02 AM
OH wait up..
Just a thought:
It says that gamers will be able to use the code weeks before others can play..
does that mean that the card wont be availible until then as to squash out using the code pre-maturely?
again, just a thought |

 | Comment #66 by cybenddragon
Monday, September 08, 2008 @ 02:39:13 AM
Hey, does this apply to gamestop because I pre ordered today and they said they don't have it in yet? Are they wrong and they aren't a participating retailer or do I just have to wait for like a week or two? |
