I hate preordering games, I never done it before I usually find a copy somewhere in town, I am having a bad feeling about GT5, it might be a week before people can get it without having to wait in lines or something, it looks sick.

Yeah, they'll probably print a few million GT5 just for the first weeks of release. I wouldn't worry about it too much. But then again I personally have it pre-ordered. I mean if you're getting the game, why NOT pre-order it? A place like Amazon doesn't even charge your card until it ships anyway, and for this game they had $.99 release date delivery. So it was a no brainer for me.

I doubt you have much to worry about but if you want it day one why not just preorder it?

I pre order from Amazon because they always come with $20 off your next game purchase certificates. I just ordered GT5 for $40 tonight, the same with my last 8 game purchases....

GT looks like a good game, but really overhyped. I highly doubt you won't be able to find a copy during launch week.

I can't remember the last time I wasn't able to find what I wanted on release day. I don't really pre-order anymore, except for the random thing on Amazon for a promotion, and even then I usually picked the free-shipping option and got it a week later.

I pre-ordered it from Amazon. 99 cents release day shipping, and you get a $10 credit towards future game purchases. If you're going to get it anyway, might as well get the $10 bonus.

You'll easily get it, shops don't tend to run dry liike they used to since shipping and preordering has become of age and the ones in stores are generally reserve copies anyway for people who don't want to preorder... I don't know why you don't like to preorder though it's a guaranteed way to get a game and most places will send it out before the release date so if your really lucky you can get it a day or two early.. Almost all of my preorders have come before the release date which i cannot argue with.

You'll be able to get it. A small Atlus release, no. But there will be so many copies of GT5 out there you won't have any problem.
