You'd need to wait until the month before.
There will be a "limited" free version for PS+ users. It will lack tracks and cars in the full retail release.
There have been rumors that there might be a cheap unlock ability to unlock the full game. Cheap as in cheaper than buying the full game at retail, but who knows nothing concrete yet.
I signed up for a trial of Prime when I preordered a PS4 and it indicates it will be shipped in 2 days.
That is why I preordered also lol. It's nice to see some people actually going to get it. It may have one or two games, but that isn't really my interest for it.
Buy both, sell one=makes the other one free. You know they will be going for insane prices on ebay lol.
I preordered a Wii U online for store pickup at Best Buy last year. It went well. There was no midnight launch at the store I was picking up from, but I was able to pick it up on launch day without any issues. There were no consoles in stock, just enough for preorders.
No because it's not mandatory. They've already stated that if you don't want to display your real name and photo you can keep it private.
I really don't see a reason not to pre-order from both. Amazon doesn't charge you until it ships and, if GameStop requires a down payment and you don't pick it up, you can just move the pre-order money to another purchase. I have one pre-ordered at Amazon and Best Buy. I figure, come launch day, I'll see the shipping status of my Amazon shipment before I decide to pay tax and pick it up at Best Buy.
To be 100% sure day one? GameStop. You can't control UPS so if your shipment gets delayed, you're not getting it day one. Amazon is good, but they're not 100% when it comes to RDD for me. I can always count on GS to have my stuff waiting on day one for over 15 years now. If tax is a factor, Amazon is the way to go but otherwise a spotless track record from GS is your best bet.

Oh they did? I guess that must of slipped my mind. I guess I feel better about that now.
Damn, this is a great idea. Might get ride of my 360, which I never play and games, see what I can get.
I'm not sure if that is true, you can buy GameStop cards at amazon
Probably would, but there is shipping cost with that. I'd only transfer credit if tis 1:1.
Didn't think about that. Nice job catching the 2.99 shipping cost. I'm used to the free shipping on anything over 25 bucks at Amazon so I didn't even check shipping. Yeah I guess once you transfer your GS Credit to Amazon it's a done deal unless you want to pay shipping and lose some money.
I just used a $10 cert towards an amazon kindle card at best buy last week, no overrides or anything needed (actually had the guy at the register do the thing where they look up your certs in the system). So it should be working fine.
Historically no, applying additional credit and changing shipping speed on Amazon orders has not affected preorders in any way that I'm aware of. If you want to be super safe, email customer service and ask them to change it (and at the same time confirm that you have the 'Launch Edition').
I've had orders push back before, but these were normal orders and not preorders. I'd make sure before you do change it, but I'd imagine it wouldn't do anything since its far from shipping. usually if your order is in shipping soon it can delay it.
They didn't make me preorder a game or even bring it up.
if your getting it shipped to your house: amazon...if not gamestop.
There's no "launch edition". Amazon just did that to make it easier to tell who would be getting the console on release day.
I believe this is how BB handles preorders. They do a preauth weekly to verify the card is good. It eventually falls off, but if you have a low credit limit it could cause problems for you.
Why the
would they do this? it defeats the purpose of a pre-order & not only that, accrues interest on your account for something you physically do not have available. Putting something into it is one thing (ie gift certificates like i did for $25) but to be charged, no way. I'd be disappointed if they charged me for the full amount. a small fee sure, that's common sense but at least advertise how Much you have to put down not just charge. Now i have to check whether or not the actually did this.
Why the
I had plenty to cover the charge, but I do not like this practice at all. Will they try to charge again? When? They can't play the mystery charge game with my account. The store closed already, but I will be calling to find out more. They better have a really good answer for it that doesn't begin or end with "That's our policy". It's actually illegal to charge without authorization or notifying the person before hand. I read the fine print, there's no "when we get to it we will charge clause".
Sure thing
I preordered ps4 at bestbuy for pickup on the 10th and I havent been charged. Check a week later. idkWhy the

These questions been answered many times in this thread go back some pages and search. BB will authorize the amount on whatever card you use every X days until order complete.I preordered ps4 at bestbuy for pickup on the 10th and I havent been charged. Check a week later. idkWhy the
