Subject: I didnt get a code

Half this game is 90% mental.

I pre-ordered yesterday from a gamestop and I didnt get a code to unlock Johnson. I thought we'd get the code when the game came out. so was i supposed to get the code or do i get it when the game comes out?

Datass

bestbuy gives the code along with a case thats empty, but gamestop gives it when it comes out

i do not accept recruitment messages

yes you get the code the second you pre order it and be able to play johnson
on odst OH NEWS FLASH YOU DONT HAVE ODST YET

what do you think?

  • 07.19.2009 2:31 PM PDT

Ya they dont give it to you till the september when it comes out...all I got was a reciept.

  • 07.19.2009 2:33 PM PDT

oh death was never enemy of ours

best buy is trying to outsell the other stores by giving the code early, but gamestop will give it out on the date you get it

That was uncalled for.... He clearly asked if he got it when he pre-ordered it or when he got the game. BestBuy DOES give the code when you pre-order it, whereas GameStop does not.

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

Gamestop FTW, unless your by one of those gamestops that do retarded things or put MW2 on your reciept because they love it instead of ODST.-(that happend to someone look for their thread)-.

Did that just get asked?

Lemme get the steps to this question

1) You thought you get the code when the game comes out
2) So you thought you would get the code then even though you thought what i wrote above
3) Then you ask if you get the code when the game comes out when you already thought that

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

EB Games gave me nothing but a receipt when I put down my money for ODST. I'd assume they'd give me the code with the game on launch.

I don't get a code but i do get ODST a day earlier(on the 21st)!

i can see alot of kids getting the code early then losing it like 2 days before ODST comes out
lol

You will get your code when you pick up your game.

I pre-ordered from gamestop today. I got Johnson...well, a Johnson action figure. They gave it to me with my pre-order. Did anyone else get an action figure?
