LA Noire GS Preorder bonus

[Ruahrc]

I was wondering if I did not preorder LA Noire but went to go buy it at a store would I still get the preorder bonus (extra case), or is that an item specifically given to only those who preordered? It is my understanding that the preorder bonus is an insert in the case, (which has a sticker on the outside indicating the preorder bonuses within) and is probably in every copy of the game that was shipped to the store, whether someone preordered it or not.

So, if the game is still available at a local GS, if I bought it I would get a copy with the preorder bonus in it, right? Or do they actually have two separate versions of the game, one for preorders and the other for regular sales?

I have some GS credit, and while originally I did not intend to pick up LA Noire right away, I have been thinking about buying it now at the full MSRP and using my credit to lower the price rather than waiting, if it means I can still grab the preorder bonuses.

Went down to the local GS today. They said that not all their copies are preorder containing ones, they try to send out the right number of preorder copies to each store depending on how many preorders they got. But, there were two preorder copies still in stock, so I picked up one for about half price after GS credit. At long last, I'm finally free of the GS store credit shackles! No more deciding if I should use the credit or get a better deal at a different retailer.
