GameStop Pre-Order Bonus Revealed!

[MomentoMori]

Comic Con actually started today. My teacher was conveniently out today and had told us he was going there "strickly for business." >.>

As far as I know, everyone I know also got the cover, whether they preordered or not. I guess there were had a lot of extras then?

Either that or there was a printing error. IDEK.

I just don't see what the big deal is. Most of us would preorder the game anyway, so what's wrong with getting a little something extra even if it just decals for your PSP? I mean look, Japan got the bundle pack because that is the series' country of origin, so this is just their way of being semi-exclusive.

I'd rather get an art book or something along those lines than some shitty decals, but I don't know, I probably just demand too much of my fandom.

EDIT:

And yeah, I get that Japan gets all the good stuff because it's the country of origin, but if Australia and UK are getting special editions, why not NA?

I say to just be glad that SE even gives you something, but I do agree that an art book would be a nice collectible.

1) You might not get the case
2) You are not guaranteed a preorder gift
3) It's just a regular PSP, you can probably find a cheaper one online or something

I'm not saying don't preorder the bundle...I just think it has it's pros and cons.

yeah also. the new PSP's need $15 adapters if you want to plug in your headphones. so if you're buying a psp get one you can plug your damn headphones into.
I didn't get a case

but it was a good deal
cence they threw in a 2 gig memory card
Advent Children
and the game
for $200
but im pissed about the cover

That'd be like you having a birthday party and all you get are a pair of old gym socks, and when you say something about it someone says, "Well, just be glad you got *something*."

But whatever. I'm getting the game, I've made my own skin, so it doesn't really matter at the end of the day.

I don't think anyone is necessarily angry, but people just hope that they can get their hands on something someone else is across the sea (but as seen with Japan-exclusives, that doesn't happen often). Also, I didn't know Comic-con started today, thanks for the update. I do know that G4 is having live coverage of it starting Satruday though, which I will toon into btw lol XP

Not really. These bonuses aren't birthday gifts or anything. It's more like if you went to Subway and they had an offer where those who buy a meal get a .50 cent discount. Sure getting .50 cents off doesn't matter that much, but atleast you don't have to pay full price.

I think people were expecting too much here... I didn't even think there was going to be a bonus and in all honesty, who gives a crap about the bonus? Even if it was one of those artbooks or whatever, I wouldn't care for them that much. All that matters is the game. Again, just be glad they atleast got you a bonus. They could've easily just given you nothing.

I agree, a bonus is a bonus, and it's free, so people shouldn't be expecting much because all it is, is SE or the company making the game putting out more money for the people who reserved it. If they are putting out extra money for the fans (which is nice), I doubt they are making state of the art material for them.

Read the rest of my post. At the end of the day, I really don't give a shit, as long as I get the game. Would I have liked something better than some stickers? Sure, but I preordered the game for the game itself, not a bonus.

My PSP 3000 can take my headphones just fine, so I'm not sure what you mean by this

I've got a PSP 3000 too and I don't need an adapter. Are you talking about the older models?

 

[impart]

I got a 2000
:/ guess I was just unlucky

Why, whats wrong that you got it late?

 

[MomentoMori]

Money was tight last year, that's why. But if I would've asked for it when it first came out, I could've gotten it sooner.

 

[kupo1121]

What didn't you get though? The bundle you missed out on???

 

[Wheels]

gaaaaay!!!

Might be a region thing. This was in Australia, so I think our bundle was a little different. He didn't get Advent Children, but he definitely got a Dissidia PSP case, Silver PSP, Dissidia, Memory Card, the AC adaptor and Dissidia decals.
