To pre-order or not to pre-order, that is the question.

SnoopSanders · 05-15-2007, 03:13 AM

So I have my 360, and I am a HUUUUUUUUGE Halo fan, and I would die if I wasn't able to get Halo 3 the day it came out (or at least in the first week

) but I was just wondering whether I should be pre-ordering the game or not. I'm not sure if I want to is because there might not be a need to, for I don't remember the last time there was ever a software shortage. Now thats just me, but you may know of some shortages before, but just give me your opinion on whether I should be pre-ordering or not.

Preorder it. Better safe then sorry.

Plus we don't want any Halo-related casualties that we have to worry about here.

Thanks I'll pre-order right away!

preorder it, i mean it sucks that nowadays you have to do this kind of stuff, and stand out in front of a store for hours at a time, its amazing what marketing can do to this soceity

not only stand out there for days but in the process you get shot and robbed by a bunch of little nerds

Yeah pre order, becuase I know of several times I have had to go into work at my old job at whatever the release date sometimes 1 or 2 in the morning, and one game I forget whatever it was we bought 400 of it, and 120 of the collectors edition, and it was sold out in 2 hours! no joke.

The best part was the pay for just going in for three hours I made 380$ au, it was really good.

I pre ordered Halo 3 and Halo 2 Vista.

The gamestop says that for the Halo 3 launch day, the line will go by within a few hours.
Which is nice, so your not out there for the whole night, or a few days.

Lol.
