Man, oh man. Where ever you pre-ordered must really love you. Pre-orders are a crock, since every store always has plenty of stock on the day of release, plus cheaper. The only pre-order i'm gonna be doing will be Halo 3, tin box edition one. And maybe Half Life (for the 360)

you go upto the person behind the counter and say i would like too preorder (what ever games ) please ,they say not a problem blah blah blah
then you wait and wait and wait and wait
and ring and wait and ring and wait and ring and wait ,then by this time the game is out so you go to target/kmart where ever pick up a copy for less then the preordered one go back too the store you pre ordered go upto the counter tell the loverly person you wish too cancel your preorder as you just bought the game, they say not a problem ohh we dont have you down as pre ordering anything are you sure it was from this store?
you #@!%$ yes storm out and never go there again

p.s i forgot too add you have to give them some money

phatbass82 says:

You get yourself to a game retailer. You're in Queens in America? I wouldn't know how it works there. Quite often shops will advertise that they take preorders. I know EB Games take preorders. You just have to ask. More likely a tailored videogame shop will do it as apposed to department stores (which sometimes allow preorders).

just ask at the counter to preorder. you need ten percent usally . also the reason i preorder all the games now is cause you can cancel them and get all the money back at anytime.

so i go up to the clerk, ask to pre-order brawl, give a 10% down payment and come back december 3rd and pick up the game? thats it? i thought you'd have to give your name, address, phone number, and pretty much everything except your shoe size before they reserved you a copy...

sometimes, it depends on the shop. But ask first if you are going to other places apart from EB Games, as I don't know others in America that will take pre-orders.
