The scenario:

Gamestop's pre-order gives you an "exclusive" 3 pack weapon bundle.

Kmart offers a 20 buck gift card as a preorder bonus.


Which would you take?

I'm sticking with gamestop unless I found out their pre-order bonus can be earned later in game.

 

[I NEED SCISSORS]

The gift card. Fuck is wrong with you. :lol

 

[Salsa]

So youre basically paying 20 bucks for 3 in-game weapons ?

...

 

[Shurs]

The gift card. Fuck is wrong with you. :lol

This.

I'm going to import from Zavvi:

 

[rainking187]

I'd go with GameStop, but mostly because my Kmart never has any new releases or anything I actually want to buy, so the giftcard would go to waste if I could even get it.

 

[neojubei]

The gift card. :lol

you can probably use the $20 gift card to buy an XBLA/PSN point card, buy the stupid weapons, and have $15 left over.

 

[LiK]

I can't decide

 

[epmode]

Man, I'll never get tired of retailer-exclusive content!

 

[a Master Ninja]

I always forget that Kmart still exists. I haven't seen one in a decade.

 

[rollingstart]

are the weapons actually that exclusive or just 'free' dlc?

I always forget that Kmart still exists. I haven't seen one in a decade.

after finding out about how the great deals they have going on, I had to rediscover the ones near me. They're all so bad but it is like $20 saved on every game I want this year.

It's almost worth $20 just to not have to set foot inside a K-Mart.

I shop at my local Kmart all the time. I get good older stuff marked down to almost nothing because no one else shops there.:lol

You'll never be able to get these weapons again. I hope you can deal with that.

Now look at what you're doing to the OP!

 

[∀ Narayan]

I'm going to import from Zavvi:

I thought about doing this until I became aware of Vanquish Play-Arts.

I NEED THESE.

 

[Shadow780]

THAT IS GODDAM SEXY.

 

[thetrin]

My preorder bonus was getting the game for free. I win.

 

[LiK]

wboa, Vanquish Play Arts, will buy!

 

[TheKaeptain]

Link to play-arts.

 

[Bebpo]

K-mart has a $20 off credit?

Hmm, hopefully Amazon matches. Vanquish is the one game I want this fall that Amazon is giving NO discount on at all :\

 

[Weenerz]

Buy from K-Mart, on the way home from there, walk into a Gamestop, tell them that they forgot to give you the weapon unlock code, profit.

 

[JordanLMiller]

Is that the only way to get those guns?

 

[Swag]

Works every time.

 

[thetrin]

Is that the only way to get those guns?

I doubt it. They'll probably be DLC as well.

 

[Retro_]

Free DLC. I think Vanquish has a bunch of DLC weapons planned for the game. We don't know if you'll have to pay for them yet though

It'll probably be in line with most preorder DLC in that you get the pack that's released last with the game.



I'd go for the gift card btw. I'd do it myself if I didn't have 40 dollars worth of gamestop credit on a gift card

 

[Wario64]

Wow...really? Really?!

 

[Jerk]

What sort of loon does not automatically jump on that free gift card?

 

[JesseZao]

Nailed by first reply...

 

[Adam J.]

There is a Kmart just down the street from me, but it's seriously the filthiest, scariest store in town. Just to give you an idea of how well this place is managed, they still had 360 HD-DVD drives in stock a year ago.

 

[Why would you do that?]

I'm going to import from Zavvi:

Urrrrg, ~$85... I would very likely get it if it were a little cheaper...

 

[cjtiger300]

This is a joke right?

 

[gdt]

You've gotta be kidding me.

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

HOLY SHIT
+1 if you dont ruin the paint job Play Arts!

 

[Lunchbox]

20$ gift card if youre sane

 

[geebee]

:lol Excellent first reply.

 

[Gospel]

In an effort to be hip, cool, noticed by gaf, and go against the flow, i'm gonna say get the weapons pack

of course, when the code shows up on gamefaqs a week later, i'm still gonna make a thread to laugh at you

 

[Neuromancer]

I went to one a few weeks ago. It was depressing.

he's gonna have to deal with it, i need my fun.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

I wish Castlevania LoS had a gift card deal.

But I'd go with the gift card all the way for Vanquish. Who cares about 3 weapons that'll be a kb file compared to $20!

I always forget that Kmart still exists. I haven't seen one in a decade.

Yeah, same here until awhile ago. I thought they've closes a lot of stores because of Wal-mart but luckily I found a K-mart that's pretty close to my area. It was a store owned by Solid Snake and Sam Fisher because it was pretty well hidden!

Gift card.

 

[Lyonaz]

Hot damn at those Play Arts figurines. I so want those!

 

[Eliciel]

It depends on whether you like to pay real life money for ingame weapons. Or if you just want to take some beers and chips with you while playing this god damn awesome game :lol
