See recently I went to Walmart to ask them about the Preorder offer, I went up to the desk and asked them about it and they Said "We have no idea what your talking about." and after they checked "Sorry we have no info on the preorder offer.".

They told me to ask in about a months, so I went home to make sure that Walmart was on the list of stores(I have already check many times) and as most of you who read the updates know it is.

Did Bungie mean Walmart.com only or what, because if it was Online only it would have .com after Walmart like Amazon.com(As posted on the list). Is it still early because I know some people on the forums have said that some Gamestops also havent heard of this either.

Side Notes: Im from the US, The only reason im going to Walmart is because my Mom ordered some gift cards from Walmart and she is giving me one(and I can not go anywhere else).

Nah, I would say, like at many walmarts, the people working in the electronics do not know anything about the electronics and games they are selling. If Bungie says it's at walmart, then you can probably bet that it is. I wouldn't worry about it, because as long as you preorder, you'll get a preorder copy, and if you get the preorder copy, you get johnson. Besides, bungie would let us know if it was only online.

They said there was no Preorder offer, in other words you cant preorder it yet.

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

If you can't preorder (different than no preorder bonus) then just do it online.

Hmm, yeah just preorder online, those cards work online too. But if there's no preorder offer, then that probably means you just can't preorder at that specific walmart, yet.

Personally, I'd do the same. I was just imagining you'd be a little edgy in current predicament.

I've pre-ordered multiple times from Walmart and expected pre-order bonus's when they clearly state they give them out, even online but I never get them. Walmart lies and is only good for basic things. Try selling your gift cards? :P

Thats what Im trying to do, and go to Gamestop.

Gamestop is a much better choice. The people working there actually know about what they're selling.

  • 06.23.2009 10:01 PM PDT

Don't buy games from walmart expecting pre-order bonus content. Gamestop is the main place that's good with that or any other gaming centered one.

Amazon and Newegg are very good about it.

Sounds like a bunch of Justin Bieber wannabes in here. I bet you all wear skinny jeans too.

Pro tip x2:
Buy something from Walmart, return it and get cash, and order from Game Stop.

I do not appreciate B.Net Group solicitation. If you ignore this and send me an invitation anyway, I will block communications with you.

I was considering Wal-Mart, as my local Gamestop is filled with jerkoffs who rip their customers off, but it is pretty apparent that Wal-Mart employees tend to know absolutely nothing about their electronics departments around here, so I might have to deal with the devils again.
