That's pretty lame. You've given your money in good faith and they fail to deliver, having made MORE money by selling your copy to another person. Verges on criminal activity to be honest, to advertise a service, take money, then make more money selling the promised goods.

So gamestop is now shipping back all of its PC copies of this game to Sqaure/Eidos until they can give gamestop versions without these coupons in them.

I say Eidos and Sqaure, STOP SELLING TO GAMESTOP.. Cut them off and do not allow them to sell your product. Who cares if they are the worlds largest game retailer. They are also the biggest thieves on the planet.

They cost you guys money, its time to make gamestop pay for there actions. Cut them off as they cut off the customers..

Default Pre-Order bonus x2?

Was curious if on the PC version the Tactical and Explosive preorder bonus stack? I only wanted the tactical but through complications of shipping and angry fits i now have both. Then my next question is if i load up the game with one bonus and start playing, will i be able to put in the other preorder bonus and recieve them on my save? or will i have to start anew playthrough?

Default pre-order bonus item question

Is the automatic unlocking device found in the hidden stash in Jensen's apartment the only one in the game or are there others to be found?

You can usually find them randomly or just buy a max of 4-5 from each vendor per a hub. Also, did anyone else find it a nuisance that you don't get the grenade launcher from the dlc preorder until near the end of the game?

Default Have to ask: Augmented Edition worth it on PS3?

Futureshop sent me the wrong version so I am curious: is augmented edition worth it?

-I read the soundtrack is just samples, and dont even work in the PS3 (aint got a bluray player in PC)
-I'd watch the videos once

So that leaves:
-Art Book,
-Motion Comic based on first issue (Stupidly actually thought it was the whole thing till now, Im dumb for not fully looking into it)

Cant decide if I want to waste 4 hours tomorrow for an art book, motion comic, and the "premium packaging" is one of the most annoying type of packages. I thought those were left behind cause DVD combos use plastic cases like games do now.

So whats everyones opinion on the bundle?

I ordered from GAME back in December and this is the first time they have failed to deliver a pre-order item on release day.

I hope that everyone who is waiting on an order gets their game soon.

I've been home all day, and awake since 8:30, most of the time with my front door in eyesight - but the Royal Mail have failed to deliver, saying my "property is inacessible." I live in a block of flats with no locked gates or doors between public property and my front door, the postman obviously just got near the end of his run, couldn't be bothered, and made an excuse. I can go and pick it up - but not until tomorrow, because their collection depot only opens until 2pm (a time that had already passed when I found out they weren't delivering today) because why would they want to open at times that might be useful?

Of all the damn packages to screw up, Royal Mail, why did it have to be this one? SO. FRICKING. ANNOYED.

So anyway, ran into town, got another copy (yes, I have more money than sense) - but sadly nowhere in town had the Augmented Edition (which is what i ordered online) only the Limited Edition, which is the base game with one of the mission packs (fortunately the one I want) but no extra DVD, artbook, etc. I'll have to hope someone wants to buy my "spare" copy.

Strangely enough, my copy of the strategy guide, being delivered through Home Delivery Network rather than Royal Mail, got here fine. Obviously their deliveryman was intelligent enough to navigate the incredibly complex straight corridor and one set of stairs leading to my flat.

I suppose there is one upside to getting the game late, most of the problematic bugs will be fixed

Although I didn't order by mail this time, when I do, I guess I'm rather lucky since the postman takes a nap in front of our property since our oleander bushes shade his van.

The postman's rather like clock work, I can always count on him napping down in front of our box between 11:30 and noon.

And yet the funny thing is, that if I use a service like Fedex or UPS or one of the other couriers, I almost always get a call saying that the driver can't find our home and that I'll have to come in to pick up any packages they have for me.

The longer you've waited, the more inefficient the postal service is.

Default Where do I enter the preorder bonus code?

Where do you enter the preorder bonus code on Xbox 360? I already got the code from Gamestop. Do I have to go the SE site and register my copy first? It's the regular edition, not the augmented one.

I did (try to) go through that massive thread about preorder bonuses but couldn't find any instruction.

Thanks!

Where? I looked everywhere on the Xbox dashboard and the in-game menu. There is no option for entering any code.
