No. 1 DVD and an artbook upon release with LE
I still sort of work at the EB in Cottonwood and they don't have it in. I assume next week around the same time everyone else should be getting it.

it's funny, because the guy that got fired did it because he was releasing stocking info on the mgs3 - subsistence le. it'd suck if this le claimed another job.

I tried preordering at a local Gamecrazy today, they said the wouldn't be getting the LE version.
I guess I'll go over to the nearby Gamestop later today and preorder it there.

Welp I've preordered this from gamestop.com
How would I go about getting these preorder bonuses in Canada?

Decent quick recap of the series, good for someone who'd like sort of a runthrough of the major events of the story without giving away some of the great details.
The theme during the ending credits is fantastic though. I've never heard it before, is it from one of the other OSTs? If not, I hope its in MGS4, it's quite beautiful.

They were wrong and lazy, if they pull that again demand a manager.
Seriously, call them on their crap and threaten to go to corporate.
..... Or keep checking back and realize that not everybody who works at a game store is informed when preorder bonuses for this particular game come in and that person relayed what usually happens for preorder bonuses.. Your average floor worker doesn't get the emails that contains that information.

Ugh...this is such a mess. I called Gamestop today and the guy said "if we're getting it you're getting it," of course with him having no idea what they're getting.
They shouldn't announce this stuff until they have the retail channel aspect of it sorted out.

If you don't have a Kagari at your store, just limit your frustration by asking for the store manager. I called earlier but mine wasn't in, so against my better judgment I attempted to communicate with one the regular employees about it and it was a complete disaster. It ended with her getting mad at me for even asking about it, then she finally says "I have no idea what you're even talking about! We don't sell DVDs here, only games!" at which point I politely said thanks and hung up.

Does this apply to pre-ordering the MGS4/PS3 bundle? Is it even possible to pre-order that?

Gamestop is small, everyone has access to the information and if not then the manager is not doing his job and is an idiot.
No offense to our people who work at Gamestop but it is not a hard job, they are small stores with one main area of inventory.
Most stores around here get the list every morning printed out by either the Manager, the asm or the main keyholder.
I can not count how many times some asshat at Gamestop and EB would hand me a complete line of bullshit about something to the point of flat out lying about a product.
They walk around putting freaking games on shelves, or sometimes when the taskmaster cracks his whip they put some little yellow stickers on.
The really hardcore actually work a register.
Gamestop is not a bad word around a huge chunk of the internet for no reason.
I feel bad for people I know who work there that DO know their stuff and do stay on top of things and make it worth stopping in now and then because I know that they get lumped in with the general GS masses unfairly.

Hmmm ... I know SNUG and where he's from. I can't think of any locations in our area that match "by the college". Of course "West Michigan" is a pretty general description, eh?Kagari said:

Damn it, I was hoping to pre-order it today. D:OokieSpookie said:
Thanks though. Any ideas on when it may become available to pre-order? Or does it vary greatly between various products?

lulz. Seriously?Kagari said:It is... but where in west Michigan is there a college town
Allendale has GVSU.
Grand Rapids has several including the CC, Calvin, Aquinas, and ???.
Kalamazoo has WMU.
Holland has Hope.
Muskegon has their CC.
... and I'm sure I'm leaving out a more than a few others of others.
Seriously. SNUG is good people, definitely not a corporate spy sent to crush fellow GAF members.

I just got back from the Gamecrazy in Oakland, at this address:
3525 MAC ARTHUR BLVD, OAKLAND, CA
And god DAMN those employees don't know anything
First of all, I had to tell them they were supposed to give these preorder bonus discs away to people who are preordering, and the cashier asked me what system I wanted it for
what SYSTEM I WANTED IT FOR >_<
But yeah, they have a bunch because they haven't been handing them out at all. Ugh. Gonna cancel this later and maybe buy something I've been putting off. However, for whatever reason, they're charging $30 for Patapon :|
wtf
Anyways, yeah, gonna watch this, and maybe eat some chinese. Can't wait for the beta

Would have been nice if it were a BR so we could see all this stuff in 1080p for the first time... Anyway I went to preorder it today, my GameStop had nothing, but were expecting them in "any day now".
