So for those who are pre ordering GOW Ascesion, are you guys going for the standard or collector's edition? Is the Collectors worth it if I'm not really into figures?

Do you still get a physical card once you reach premier silver?

I got one a couple months ago.

Thanks for the quick response.

Yup they send you one in the mail.

I remember reading on here awhile back that you aren't able to preorder using reward zone certificates. Is this only the case if you are paying only with reward zone certificates? Like I plan on going in tomorrow and preordering 6 games. Can I use a $5 reward zone certificate and a $25 visa gift card I have?

Can anyone confirm that Collector's Editions will work as well? I decided I'd go with the Tomb Raider collector's edition, but it doesn't say that this applies. Will this get corrected?

Yes - Collector's Editions will work!!!

You can still do preorders of CE/SE's in-store as long as there are enough copies allocated to cover the demand. Metal Gear was one that was an online only preorder but just about every other CE/SE is still available through the touchscreen in the store. Just go on there and search for it. If it isn't on there, that means there are no additional store units available for that title.

Need to go in store. And the only option on renewing going forward will be the digital version of @Gamer. You won't be able to go to www.atgamermagazine.com any longer to switch to print. Digital only going forward.

There will be benefits to being a digital subscriber. Starting in March, digital subscribers will get TWO coupon codes per offer in each issue. One that will work in store and one that will work online. Only digital subscribers will get the online promo code, so that's an advantage right there. And no more waiting for the print mag to show up in the mail. It will be in your inbox as the issue goes live which is usually the first Sunday of the month.

I recommend going to the RZ site, www.myrz.com, not logging in and then printing the coupon off the RZGC benefits page. It gives you the thing the store employee will scan to sell you the Unlocked Membership. JUST MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THEM CAPTURE YOUR CURRENT RZ NUMBER AT THIS POINT.

Also, make sure they have your most current and correct email address as this is where your issue and coupons will be emailed each issue.

Understand that some people really like print magazines. I'm one of them. That being said there is still a TON of value to being an Unlocked Member. @Gamer is just one part of that and you'll still get it. Will just need to use the PC, iPad or Android tablet for the content.

Damn, no more steelbooks for DI: Riptide left at my store. He said he hadn't seen them for months. :(

I did the same thing. Strange that Best Buy Canada has the Flutterby dlc and 800 reward zone points listed, but the U.S. site has no pre-order bonuses listed.

Just found this. I'm getting on the hype train a little late for this game, but I was able to get a preorder with in-store pickup tomorrow at my local using a free $5 cert and a $10 coupon from a cancelled BF order.

So I'll either get the DLC in the box, on my receipt, an email or I'll get it from the forums.

Thanks for the information. Disappointed to hear about digital-only after renewal, so hopefully the additional coupons make up for it.

So the Mag is going to be purely digital from now on? Guess that's a good way to prevent coupon theft/fraud. Bummer though, I liked reading it in the bathroom like I do with GI. Don't want to take my Touchpad, which I know won't be supported anyway. Bum-city over here.

does anyone know if you pre-order the GOW Ascension game if you also get the pre-order 'Mythological Heroes Multiplayer Pack' that all other places are offering?

All you need is the pre-order SKU & you can have a store rep print it & order it in-store. The $5 down is the main issue since some reps don't know how to manually adjust the price. Worse case you'll have to pay for it all upfront. It also helps if you don't wait to the last minute either.

My suggestion to all going forward is to adopt the GS pre-order strategy pre- order any title you'll have ANY interest in NO MATTER WHAT.
1- Do all the pre-orders on 1 receipt & USE A GIFTCARD(keep the Giftcard).
2- Don't worry about getting the $5 back right away just buy the games.
3- Once all the $20 RZ have posted take the receipt/GC back in & get a full refund.

Now if there's a game that you weren't all in for but the weely ad for another store leaks on Weds/Fri of the release week you won't have to kick yourself for not having the pre-order in place to better the pm'd sale. Doing it this way also protect you if you want to do in-store p/u or shipping if your store isn't good w/pm'ing.

I was told that they had the same pre-order bonus that everyone else is offering and as of last Tuesday there were not any other bonuses that my associate knew about.

regarding ni no kuni, you should always ask the associate in store, when you pick up the game about the dlc. Other wise , they will most likely forgot to put it on your receipt
