Where do I pre-order Halo Reach from?

[tlozoot]

I live in the UK, and would like Reach as early as possible, with whatever pre-order goodies are available to me. Price is also a consideration. If anyone has found a site with any good deals, I'd appreciate knowing. Thanks in advance.

I tend to use Amazon in the UK. I think it usually gives you some sort of bonus (got to the Uncharted 2 beta through it) and ships very quickly (if you actually buy Amazon's offer and not someone else's at the site). I don't know about the price, but they tend to be competetive.

You could maybe also wait for launch day. In Amazon if you really want to get it on launch date you might have to use a fast delivery, which might set you back a few pounds. Otherwise you have to wait around 1-2 days. Remember how they released MW2 at Sainsbury's for fking 25 pounds when the retail price was 60? Maybe that'll happen again, one can always hope I guess.

Well, you could try pre-ordering from GAME. I do that. It costs nothing (At least, if you have a free GAME card).
So I assume you could pre-order from their site.

You don't!

I tend to pre-order from Gamestop (if the pre-order goodies warrant me spending a bit extra) or HMV. HMV does pre-orders on a few games, I think.

Also, if you pre-order from Gamestop you have a chance of winning a life-sized model of a member of Noble One! Gimmicks away!

you could try amazon im thinkingn abot pre-ordering Reach from Amazon but it depends what edition your looking for, are you looking for standard, limited or legendary? for standard I would try a place like Game(£39.99 was the best I could find) or Gamestation. For limited have a look at Amazon(£49.99) and for Legendary the cheapest I could find it was at £200.00 at amazon(I couldent find it at Game) so yeah try Amazon for limited and Legendary and Game or Game Station for Standard. Good luck.

Just standard edition is fine. I don't have the kind of cash to shell out for anything prettier.

 

[Sethzard]

I use game, game gives it 1 day early. The legendary edition is still available at zavii though.

 

[Eagle Est1986]

Amazon.co.uk. Never failed me, and a few times I've got games early!

 

[Brotherofwill]

Just standard edition is fine. I don't have the kind of cash to shell out for anything prettier.

Just checked it: Amazon.co.uk has it for 37.99 pounds, including a downloadable Spartan Recon helmet variant (whatever that means) that comes with the pre-order. The delivery is free, altough the free delivery could take 2-3 days, you need to shell out a few quid more to have the fast one that arrives launch day with a guarantee.

You don't!

I might halo rage on you for such blasphemy

I find just walking into any shop that sells games means you can pre order it without worry. My advice is just walk into town, or go online.

 

[Polaris19]

GAME, Amazon UK, Argos, all good options, but I'd probably go with Argos.

 

[Meggiepants]

Amazon is giving a $20 credit toward your next game purchase if you pre-order from them. At least in the U.S. they are.

That's what did it for me. I need those credits this Fall!

Gamestation and Game do midnight releases, so you can pre-order it now and camp out until the game is released.
