This post has been wikified. If you would like to help edit it, please take the liberty of doing so. I plan on getting another one of these going for Gods of War and BioShock Infinite soon, although it seems nobody has anything exclusive, and if you can find an Ultimate Songbird edition or even a Premium edition, you're a lucky one. Regardless, let me know what you think. Thanks!

I wish Amazon would add a $15-20 credit. I'd be more inclined to get it then.

I want to go Best Buy for the 20 bucks, but I might have to go Microsoft store because Alex Brand is the best character and I can't argue with 1600 points. Then again I wont get the game day one. This is a hard one.

Only thing I can think of to add to the post is pictures of the characters. I tried to do it, but I'm afraid I'll mess up the post.

I'll be picking this one up at Best Buy, mainly due to the $20 certificate, Anyas a nice bonus but I'll probably just use Tai onlne anways, also a code for a digital copy of Gears of War 1 comes with all first print copies from anywhere, so you'll get that no matter what, not just at Walmart.

Im thinking about getting a copy from Walmart for the free Gears 3, and then also from Best Buy for the $20 GC and 2x rz points. Sell one of the copies and I'd be content.

Don't forget Dell.com has a $20 gift card

"Microsoft Corporation Pre Order Gears of War Judgment for 360 Available March 19 2013 with $20 PROMO eGift Card"

Another is Amazon.es. Yes, they don't ship to the US and yes, it might be a region locked game, but there's a rare exclusive char that is likely region free

Pre Promotion: DLC code in Amazon.es ExCLUSIVE
Gears of War Reserve Judgement and receive free DLC code with which you can download to Sun, the best friend of Marcus Fenix ​​and "Hammerburst Classic", which was the rifle standard Army assault Locust.

Ever since the first Gears of War, I promised myself that I wouldn't buy the following installment on release, because I found each Gears title incredibly overrated, yet I still bought it. This time I'm not going through with it unless Amazon adds a $20 credit. These bonuses don't impress me. I'll wait until holiday 2013 sales otherwise.

Gears of War Canada is really good for our Canadian CAGs
Pre-order Bonuses

Get the Classic Hammerburst weapon, a code for the original "Gears of War" for Xbox 360, and the Amazon-exclusive bonuses Young Dom character skin (pictured) and Anya Stroud character skin. These exclusive skins are for use in competitive multiplayer matches in Gears of War: Judgment. Offer valid when shipped and sold by Amazon.ca. Limit one per household.

Sorry for all the posts, but i don't really understand the wiki thing. Anyone want to add my additions to it?

This is the complete worldwide thread

Good thread, thanks for taking the time to do this.

I went with BBY because the $20 > any of the other stuff IMO.

ok this is gonna be YMMV thing, but the microcenter ad i just got shows in the gaming section a picture of gears judgement and inset to that a 12mo xbox live card with a price of 39.99 overlay. perhaps someone could get a pricematch given the way the rest of the ads layout similar fashion the price over the game.

All of the character DLC will be in future map packs...Epic always does that.

Based on how fast Gears 3 dropped in price, I may hold off on this one.

...unless I can get one of those $10 coupons at Best Buy to use on a preorder.

If you get it at ms store you $20 of ms points. Better than $10 especially if you want season pass since that would make it free. Plus free ship and alex brand and classic hammerburst.

Thanks, OP, for doing this. It really does save time for everyone by having all these details in one place.

I see this comment way too often. I'm not saying it won't happen, but Epic did it for one game, not "always." ...And technically you could argue they weren't the same. There's no reason for people to act like they know the future when they don't. If you HAVE to have a character, you better preorder, but don't be surprised if they offer it with a changed color scheme later.

BTW, why do we have individual threads now, instead of using this: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/...d.php?t=297423 ?

If I get the coupon at Best Buy, that would be $10 off a preorder, plus the $20 Reward Zone credit, plus the 2X points. So basically $30 for the game plus the points.

As with every other Gears game, this will be $40 in 3 weeks and the $20 you save won't be tied to one store. If you have a backlog, just wait. Thanks to the OP for organizing the bonuses though.
