preorder

[blueandproud]

my parents just got me a preorder of BlOps 2 for my birthday (my dad blatently wanted an excuse to buy it ;P) and i was just wandering, who else has preordered already?

[killerussian]

I know I could probably check GameStop, but what are the contents of pre-ordering? Is it just a poster or is there going to be some sort of exclusive hardened edition content or something?

[blueandproud]

well i got a pretty sweet T-shirt, but their probs will be a hardened/prestige addition released at a later date

I have pre-ordered it already and what you get depends where you pre-order it. I would recommend GameStop because not only do you get the two-sided poster of the Black Ops II soldier and that zombie part of it, but you also get a 4 wave of prizes. What I mean by that is that you get a small paper saying that the first prize you get for pre-ordering it is in May(the two-sided poster)and the next three prizes are on July, August, and October. The other three prizes they don't tell you I guess as a surprise. Also, if your a GameStop Power Up Rewards Member you get a free Modern Warfare 3 Prestige Token.

Now is that just pre-ordering the regular version? Or are there hardened/limited editions to be purchased?

[MysteryMachineX]

There's only one version. But the bonus you get depends on when you preorder it. Preorder it now and you get the poster plus three other, for-now unknown prizes. If you wait too long, you might not get anything good.

I am curious as to what the other things are. They've started off small: a poster. Question is, are they going to steadily become more valuable? Perhaps the next will be pretty valuable, as well as the next, and the last might be moot. Perhaps the last will be the most valuable, but I'd imagine Treyarch would like to make hype for the game long before the release of the game itself. I see why not start big though; start small to bring anticipation.

I'm hoping that, like last time, the give some free maps.

I've already pre-ordered BO2 from Gamestop for both Xbox & PC.

I shipped my extra BO2 poster oacross the pond to AlphaSnake

[MysteryMachineX]

I have a question. I preordered a copy of Black Ops 2, and it is to be mailed to my address. When/how can I expect to receive the poster and the other preorder bonuses?

[MixMasterNut]

You have to pick up the poster in-person from a Gamestop store. Supplies are limited. Just show them proof of your online purchase

i preordered months ago fyi

Gamestop had posters to give, and some DLC for modernwarfare. The poster PICTURE HAS obviously been circled around here but APPARENTLY others were giving out shirts and tags with their preorders. Still no confirmation with prestige orders till later.

[scottyboy8341]

If you pre-order at Game Stop now you can change the edition you get when they announce them as lkng as you have $25 on the game at that time. So if you preorder today and pay it off as I did, then say next month they announce a hardened edition for say $79.99, you would just up there, tell them you want the hardened edition, pay the extra $30 and your good to go.

[MysteryMachineX]

So I went by the Gamestop, and it is apparent the guy there has no clue what he's doing. When I asked he just mumbled nonsense, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

I'll just be waiting until they release the Hardened Edition. In the meanwhile I'll be saving up my $85.
