Good Question. I know GameStop has some good preorder bonuses on Dead Island and Batman: Arkham City, but they haven't advertised any bonus for BF3 yet (or at least they hadn't last time I was in there). Waiting to see what they will offer. I'm also going to check into Fry's and Electronic Boutique. If I find a good preorder bonus I will post back.

I don't care about pre-order bonuses. I got mine on Amazon for $49.99 several hours after they put them up.

Direct2Drive will probably have the best price if you can find a good discount coupon.

Well every pre order gets the return to karkland map pack. I think the other bonuses are different weapons like AA-12 or the 870 combat shotgun

Correct me if I'm wrong...but isn't the digital version of BF3 being hosted exclusively by Origin?

Gamestop. I'll have a box to set next to my Battlefield 2 box(and my 1942, Vietnam and 2142 if I could remember where I put those) and the physical warfare pack which I want just because I like to constantly change weapons and tactics to keep things fresh so the more weapons and equipment the better. And of course, like all pre-orders, the Back to Karkand map pack which will be awesome.

Amazon I'd like to buy from.

If GAME is that much better there I suppose, all I want is that Karkland expansion.

On the origin website, you can preorder BF3 physical copy, which also has free shipping. The bonuses are early access to the open beta, the physical warfare pack, and back to karkand expansion.

Amazon has dogtags and expansion.

Bestbuy has the specact kit and expansion

Gamestop has the physical warfare back and expansion.

I'm planning on ordering from origin for the early beta access or bestbuy if I want to get it day one (haven't decided yet).

No, it's just most likely not going to be sold on steam.

Same here. I pre-ordered because I want Amazon.com to ship my order out right away. Hopefully I could get same day as launch delivery or at least the day after. Sometimes I get them on launch day because they send them out a day or two before it.

You are wrong. Steam is just not going to have it, but places like D2D will.

Not so great for anyone in the UK

Origin (with physical warfare) - digital only £39.99
Amazon - retail £29.91
GAME (with physical warfare) retail - £29.99 All limited edition.

Wow EA, just wow.
