Multiple pre-order bonus packs? : Fallout: New Vegas

» Thu Apr 07, 2011 6:11 am

na man learn to save money paying 60 bucks just for a new pre order item aint worth it. Save that money for like.... when there are DLC or new games. Lots of good ones coming out this year!

go to gamestop.
buy the game
take out the pre order code.
return the game the next day and get your money back.

the end

Ahem, I hope you got a real reason to return it.

Also, I've said this WAY too many times, but it's Obsidian Entertainment who're making this game. Just a little tidbit there.

Yes, but bethseda is publishing it meaning they are responsible for distribution and work with obsidian when making dlc. They also pitched in on the gameplay. With Bethseda and obsedian working together they are sure to have made a great game.

PM me If you want to know ways around this. Or anybody for that matter. You will never waste 60 dollar on a bad game again. All tricks will be explained...

I have no need to cheat Gamestop, because I don't spend $60 on a game without thoroughly researching it first. So I never waste $60 on a bad game. :shrug:

plus as speculated several times before, once F:NV GECK is out people are going to make mods of the content.

it comes with the download

Well, here's an update.... something that all Steam customers should be aware of:

A staff member at Steam replied to my ticket and said that they would be happy to cancel my pre-order, but that since I had another game in the same cart which was on sale at the time, that I would have to re-purchase the OTHER game at FULL PRICE. So basically they are offering to cancel my Fallout: New Vegas pre-order if I pay them another 20 bucks.

No deal, Steam. Jerks. (I realize I'd still be 30 bucks better off than I am now, but it's kind of the principal of the thing...)

I still want the FNV Collector's Edition, and I have already placed my pre-order with Gamestop. I guess I'm going to wind up with 2 copies of Fallout: New Vegas.

So here's a new question: what to do with an extra copy?

(Here come the "gift it to me!!!!" posts, lol)

is the extra copy the clasic pack if gift it to GapHo_4life

I'll probably try to get them off of ebay rather than buying two copies. :user:

Yeah....Gamefly has saved me from buying more than one bad or mediocre game.

Lol i only pre-ordered to be sure i got the game on release day, the extra stuff is just a bonus and didn`t influence my choice. ill be happy with my Caravan pack

I started a thread about multiple pre-order packs, it got locked with an accusation of promoting piracy. <_<

Nice to hear that it will be possible anyway, I'd like to mix and match on the items.

I would advise you not to pre-order two. As ashj said they really aren't that amazing, but if it makes you happy go for it!

The Pre-order packs really don't seem worth it. Even if I had LIVE I wouldn't use mine from Amazon.com. It would just ruin the "barely scrapping by" feeling of the beginning.
