i had a dream last night where I showed up to my gameshop on Apr 29, and they had sold my copy of GTA 4 special edition! it was the scariest dream ever and i woke up sweating

i hope i can sleep for the rest of the week....btw i was joking that dream never happened

but anyway what would you do if they sold your pre ordered copy, or even if they just didnt have any copies left?

I would be kind of pissed but very little. As long as they will be getting it to me in the next day or two, I'm good. GTAIV isn't that big of a deal to me.

Uh, I would suggest walking across the street and buying it elsewhere. I mean, when Halo 3 came out I went in on opening day but they were all sold out and the nerdy stereotype EBgames employee laughed at me and told me that if I were serious I would have had it pre-ordered months ago.

So I walk over to HMV and they have a wall of Halo 3's for sale. Then I walked over to Zellers and the same thing was there. A wall of Halo 3's for sale.

Again the exact same thing happened with Super Smash Brothers Brawl. EBgames sold out, but HMV and Zellers had ample copies.

This proved to me without a shadow of a doubt that if one place is sold out, then just walk across the street and get it elsewhere. There's no point in pre-ordering...unless you are all hyped about a GTA 4 fake lockbox to take to school and show all your cool friends and try and convince them about how cool you are.

If that happens to me - I will throw a fit as I took a day off from work for it. There is another Gamestop about 15-20 miles from my house, but my local one is only about 3 miles away - I would demand someone from the store go and get me one then deliver it to my house and refund my money.

But in reality, I may just walk out of the store, go home, curl up in the fetal position in a corner of the room and cry.

I totally agree with you, there is absoultely no point in preordering any game. There hasn't been one major title thats came out and was sold out in every store on the release day. Gamestop always pressures you into preordering games, acting like its going to be sold out everywhere, maybe at there store but not all. Stores like Walmart, Target, Bestbuy, and CircuitCity will most likely have plenty of copies to go around on release day.

i dont know why everyone is preordering GTA4. Its going to be awsome and all but im not sure if this is the case for you but where i live no one goes to Walmart to get video games. I can stroll in anytime and pick up GTA4 on the 29th and im positive they will have it. They had Halo 3 when that first came out, as well as every other game. In my area Eeveryone heads to ebgames and gamestop first thing and they are sold out for weeks. Walmart all the way son, sometimes bestbuy has them 2 but they will go out quick, just not as quck as eb or stop.
